A proactive approach to health involves understanding and managing potential risks. Dr. Kevon 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:

• Dental Injury: Protecting your teeth from injury is a vital aspect of preventive dentistry, reducing the risk of painful procedures, costly treatments, and long-term oral health problems.
• Tooth Abscess: Catching and treating gum disease early is essential, as untreated gum disease is a major risk factor for developing a tooth abscess requiring potentially extensive dental treatment.
• Tooth Loss: Protecting your teeth from loss involves diligent brushing, flossing, and regular professional cleanings to reduce your risk of cavities and gum disease.
• Chipped Tooth: Protecting your teeth from chipping through preventive measures like wearing a mouthguard during sports can significantly reduce your risk of future dental problems.
• Tender Gums: Tender gums can be a sign of early gum disease, so addressing them promptly helps prevent more serious problems like tooth loss.
• Toothache: A toothache can be a warning sign of a cavity or infection, highlighting the importance of regular dental checkups for early detection and prevention.
• Dental Disorders: Regular dental checkups are crucial for early detection and management of dental disorders, allowing for timely intervention to prevent further damage and improve long-term oral health.
• Sensitive Teeth: Sensitive teeth, often a sign of enamel wear or exposed dentin, can be managed early to prevent further tooth decay and discomfort.
• Clicking of Temporomandibular Joint: Preventive care includes monitoring your jaw joint; a clicking sound is a potential sign of TMJ disorder that warrants an examination to prevent complications.
• Tooth Decay: Catching tooth decay early through regular dental checkups can prevent painful cavities, fillings, and more extensive treatments down the line.
• Mouth Conditions: Managing mouth conditions effectively helps protect your teeth, gums, and overall well-being, enhancing your quality of life.
• Loose Teeth: Experiencing loose teeth? Addressing this early prevents further tooth loss and potential complications, emphasizing the value of proactive dental care.

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

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

At Dr. Kevon DMD, we recommend seeing a dentist and hygienist every six months for checkups and cleanings. This is a crucial preventive step to remove tartar buildup, 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 can harden into tartar that only a professional cleaning can remove. This is crucial for preventing 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 intrinsically linked 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 crucial for maintaining not only a healthy mouth but also a healthy body.

What is the difference between gingivitis and periodontitis?

Gingivitis is an early, reversible stage of gum disease, characterized by red, swollen gums that may bleed easily. If left untreated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, a more serious stage where the bone supporting your teeth is damaged, potentially leading to tooth loss.

When should my child first see a dentist?

Dr. Kevon DMD recommends a child's first dental visit within six months of their first tooth erupting, or by their first birthday. This early visit is crucial for ensuring proper tooth development and establishing a positive dental home for future care.

Are dental X-rays safe, and why do I need them?

Yes, modern digital dental X-rays are very safe, using extremely low levels of radiation. They allow Dr. Kevon DMD to see issues like cavities between teeth, bone loss, and impacted teeth that aren't visible otherwise, enabling early intervention and better oral health.

Can you help with snoring or sleep apnea?

Dr. Kevon DMD can help with sleep-disordered breathing. For some patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea, we can create a custom-fitted oral appliance to keep the airway open while you sleep. This is a comfortable and effective alternative to CPAP for eligible patients.

What causes tooth sensitivity?

Tooth sensitivity can be caused by worn enamel, receding gums exposing the tooth root, or tiny cracks in the teeth. A proper diagnosis by Dr. Kevon DMD is needed to determine the specific cause and recommend effective treatments, such as desensitizing toothpaste or in-office procedures.
