The Foundation of Oral Health

What Is Preventative Dentistry?

Prevents Cavities and Gum Disease

Reduces Need for Extensive Dental Work

Cost-Effective Long-Term Care

Supports Overall Health

Early Detection of Oral Issues

Preventative dentistry encompasses all the services and practices designed to maintain your oral health and prevent dental problems before they develop. At Harbison Dental Group, we believe that prevention is always preferable to treatment, both for your comfort and your wallet.

Our preventative approach combines professional in-office care with education about effective home practices. By partnering with you, we can identify potential issues early, provide prompt intervention when necessary, and help you maintain healthy teeth and gums throughout your life.

Preventative dentistry is appropriate for patients of all ages and is the cornerstone of lifelong oral health. With our modern equipment including digital X-rays and advanced screening tools, we can detect problems in their earliest stages when they're easiest to treat.

Our Preventative Dental Services

Regular Dental Cleanings

Our professional dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar that can't be addressed with regular brushing and flossing. Our hygienists use gentle techniques and modern tools to thoroughly clean all surfaces of your teeth, paying special attention to hard-to-reach areas. Regular cleanings help prevent gum disease, cavities, and bad breath while keeping your smile bright.
