A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Jason DMD provides expert care for a range of conditions, focusing on early detection and effective management to support your long-term wellness. Common areas of focus include:

• Glossitis: Preventing glossitis involves maintaining a healthy diet and good oral hygiene, as inflammation of the tongue can indicate problems that need prompt attention from your dentist to prevent further issues.
• Hypodontia: Managing hypodontia through early intervention, such as dental implants or braces, helps maintain proper jaw alignment and reduces the risk of gum disease and other oral health issues.
• Tooth Discoloration (Resistant to Whitening): Addressing resistant tooth discoloration proactively can help maintain your smile's aesthetic appeal and avoid more extensive, costly treatments later.
• Tooth and Nail Syndrome: Because Tooth and Nail Syndrome can sometimes manifest in oral health issues, proactive dental care is vital for minimizing potential risks.
• Jaw Bone Tissue Deterioration: Maintaining strong jawbone health is crucial for preventing tooth loss and other oral health complications, making regular dental visits essential.
• Cleft Lip: Managing a cleft lip effectively involves a multidisciplinary approach, including surgical repair and speech therapy, to prevent further health challenges.

Taking proactive steps is central to long-term health. Dr. Jason DMD offers a range of key preventive screenings and services designed to provide crucial insights into your health and support your well-being:

• Root Planing: Take control of your oral health with root planing—a procedure that addresses gum disease early on, preventing the need for more extensive treatments in the future and supporting overall health.
• Restoring Teeth: Take proactive steps to protect your overall health by restoring damaged teeth, reducing the risk of infection and future dental problems.
• Partial Dentures: Addressing missing teeth with partial dentures helps maintain your overall oral health and prevents jawbone deterioration.
• Digital X-Ray (CDR): A digital X-ray allows your dentist to see inside your teeth and gums to detect cavities, infections, or bone loss early, preventing more serious problems down the line.
• Laser Lingual Frenectomy: For improved oral hygiene and potentially better speech clarity, consider a laser lingual frenectomy. This minor procedure can help prevent future dental problems by optimizing tongue function.
• Replacing a Single Tooth: A single-tooth replacement prevents jawbone loss and preserves the natural shape of your face, promoting long-term oral health and aesthetics.
• Guided Tissue Regeneration: To prevent tooth loss from advanced gum disease, guided tissue regeneration encourages natural healing by guiding the regrowth of tissues supporting your teeth.

Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Preventive Dental care with Dr. Jason DMD:

How often should I visit the dentist for a check-up and cleaning?

For most people, visiting Dr. Jason DMD and our dental hygienists every six months is recommended. This schedule allows us to remove tartar buildup that brushing can't, catch cavities early, and screen for gum disease and oral cancer.

Why are routine dental cleanings so important for prevention?

Even with meticulous brushing and flossing, plaque hardens into tartar that only a professional cleaning can remove. This crucial step prevents cavities and, more importantly, gum disease, which has links to other health problems like heart disease.

How is oral health connected to my overall health?

Oral health is deeply connected to overall health. Chronic gum inflammation, or periodontitis, has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Preventive dental care is essential for maintaining optimal body health.

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are the modern gold standard for replacing missing teeth. They are titanium posts that act like artificial tooth roots, which are then topped with a natural-looking crown. This helps prevent bone loss and preserves the health of surrounding teeth.

Do you perform oral cancer screenings?

Yes, an oral cancer screening is a routine and important part of every dental check-up. Dr. Jason DMD will visually inspect the lips, tongue, gums, and entire mouth for any abnormalities, as early detection is key to successful treatment.

What is a root canal and why is it needed?

A root canal is a procedure to save a badly infected or damaged tooth. It involves removing the inflamed pulp, cleaning the inside of the tooth, and sealing it. This treatment relieves pain and prevents the need for tooth extraction.

How can I whiten my teeth safely?

The safest and most effective way to whiten your teeth is under professional supervision. Dr. Jason DMD can assess your oral health to ensure you're a good candidate and offer professional-grade treatments, like custom trays or in-office procedures, for better and safer results than over-the-counter products.

Can you help with snoring or sleep apnea?

Dr. Jason DMD can help some patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. We offer custom-fitted oral appliances to keep the airway open during sleep, which can be a comfortable and effective alternative to CPAP therapy for eligible patients.
