Frequently Asked Questions about Preventive Exams
At what age should checkups begin?
From the appearance of the first baby teeth, around 6 months, it is advisable to brush the teeth. Early visits from 2-3 years help children get used to the dental environment and prevent early cavities.
Do cleanings damage enamel?
No, modern professional techniques are perfectly safe and even strengthen enamel thanks to fluoride application. We use proven GBT® protocols and state-of-the-art equipment such as the AIRFLOW® PROPHYLAXIS MASTER.
What to do between visits?
Maintain rigorous hygiene: brush twice a day, use dental floss daily, eat a balanced diet, and limit sugar.
