Preventive Dentistry Near You

No one sets out to purposely neglect their teeth. However, over time, a combination of normal wear and poor dental hygiene can take its toll on your mouth. To avoid cavities, infection, and tooth decay, you should have dental checkups every six months with Dr. Parsa T. Zadeh. Dr. Zadeh will employ several procedures to maintain oral health during your checkups.

Preventive Dental Services We Offer

Zadeh Dentistry is committed to helping our patients in Beverly Hills and the surrounding areas by offering the following preventative dentistry treatments near you:

Dental Examinations and X-Rays

The first and perhaps most important task in preventive dentistry is to have your teeth examined and X-rayed regularly. The X-rays and examination can reveal problems with your teeth before they become a significant issue. For example, the X-rays might reveal a hidden cavity, enabling Dr. Zadeh to treat it before it overtakes the entire tooth. Alternatively, your exam might indicate gum disease or problems with worn enamel. Identifying these problems early can prevent more severe problems and tooth loss.

Teeth Grinding and Clenching

If you suffer from a common problem called bruxism or nocturnal bruxism, where you grind and clench, you should speak to your dentist to find options to help prevent excessive wear and tear to your teeth. By stopping teeth grinding and clenching, you can help ensure that you have your teeth for your entire lifetime. Bruxism has been identified as one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults after tooth decay. By speaking with a dentist like Dr. Zadeh, he can assist you in finding stress relaxation techniques and even create a nighttime splint to help prevent you from grinding your teeth and causing unnecessary wear and tear to your teeth. Many individuals in their 20s and 30s already have worn their teeth down. They may require crowns or even replacement teeth before middle age, so speaking to a professional about bruxism as early as possible is essential. It may also be an indicator of a more serious TMJ issue as well.

What You Can Do for Your Oral Health

The first and perhaps most important task in preventive dentistry is to have your teeth examined and X-rayed regularly. The X-rays and examination can reveal problems with your teeth before they become a significant issue. For example, the X-rays might reveal a hidden cavity, enabling Dr. Zadeh to treat it before it overtakes the entire tooth. Alternatively, your exam might indicate gum disease or problems with worn enamel. Identifying these problems early can prevent more severe problems and tooth loss.
