Prophylaxis

Why treat dental conditions if you can prevent them through prophylaxis? 

Preventive Care Services: Since ancient times, people have sought and discovered various methods for cleaning teeth and maintaining oral health. The earliest efforts in this regard date back to the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Today, preventive care for dental issues is more crucial than ever, aiming to avert diseases or complications that can be challenging and extremely painful to treat later on. Trident Clinic provides guidance on oral hygiene practices, including proper brushing techniques, the use of interdental floss and brushes, as well as hygiene maintenance for fixed and removable prosthetic works and implant-supported restorations. 

A Range of Preventive Procedures: Preventive care at Trident Clinic encompasses various procedures, including: 

• Periodontal disease prevention (oral rinses, proper mouthwash usage) 
• Bacterial plaque management 
• Fissure and groove sealing 
• Ultrasonic scaling and professional cleaning 
• Fluoride treatment using specialized applications 

Advantages of Preventive Care:

• Effectively removes tartar deposits and bacterial plaque that cannot be eliminated through regular brushing alone 
• Reduces the risk of developing periodontal diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis 
• Minimizes the likelihood of gingival recession, thereby reducing tooth sensitivity and bleeding 
• This straightforward, accessible procedure is highly beneficial and should not be overlooked, with recommended intervals of once every six months.
