Your teeth are covered with plaque, a sticky film of bacteria. After you have a meal, snack or beverage that contains sugars or starches, the bacteria release acids derived from dietary sugars that attack tooth enamel. Repeated attacks can cause the enamel to break down and may eventually result in cavities.

Emphasis on Prevention

We know how to control dental disease and want to help you understand the destructive nature of bacterial activity. When you understand it, you can control it. Prevention of dental disease is one of our primary goals.

We know things now that we didn’t know - even a few years ago. Periodontal disease is a result of the imbalance between bacterial plaque accumulation and the strength of the patient’s resistance factors. Periodontal disease may have some serious effects on the cardiovascular system as well.

Dental disease can be controlled if we control bacterial plaque activity on a daily basis. Indeed, we place great emphasis on prevention.
