If your Katoomba dentist has diagnosed a dental health issue, we recommend keeping the treatment appointment provided by our dental clinic. Your dentist chose this treatment timeframe based on your oral health issue, and delaying treatment may not be healthy.
However, if you must delay treatment, we encourage you to contact a member of our dental team to discuss your oral health issue. We are always happy to chat with you and want to keep your oral health on track.
How Preventive Dentistry Can Help
Regular checks and cleans in Katoomba can lower your risk for many common oral health issues. It’s also important to brush your teeth at least twice daily and floss at least once.
These practices have been shown to reduce your risks for preventable oral health issues, including:
- Tooth decay
- Tooth infections
- Gingivitis
- Gum disease
If you’re prone to tooth decay, the dentist may discuss fissure sealants as part of your preventive plan. These sealants lock cavity-causing bacteria away from your tooth enamel.
