Prevention of dental diseases

The overwhelming majority of Ukrainians is exposed to different dental diseases. The diseases of periodontal tissues (periodontal diseases), tooth decay, pulpitis and periodontitis are most often the reason for teeth loss at a young age. These diseases are extremely widespread: according to different estimates, 40-70% Ukrainians under 35 have them, while more than 90% of people suffer from them after 40.  The teeth loosening, osseous lesion and loss of teeth are the consequence of these diseases.

Practicing proper oral hygiene, teeth brushing and polishing, removal of dental calcareous deposits (dental calculus, dental plaque) are the important preventive measures against dental diseases. However, these measures may be not enough without regular visits to a dentist for prevention of diseases, their identification at an early stage and further treatment.

"Oxford Medical" offers a variety of treatment programs that, in combination with preventive procedures, allow you to effectively combat dental diseases:

• hardware cleaning and polishing of teeth;
• gum treatment;
• sealing of fissures of teeth;
• treatment of caries of all stages;
• endodontic care (treatment of tooth canals);
• installation of veneers (artistic restoration of teeth);
• decoration of teeth with various decorative overlays.

Dentists of the Oxford Medical clinic use advanced medical equipment. For example, when brushing teeth, special professional toothpastes are used. Polishing is also performed using the Air Flow method, during which teeth are polished using finely dispersed particles supplied under pressure.

When treating gums, the «Vector» device is used to remove deposits, which uses not the vibrations of a metal instrument, but drops of finely dispersed water solution, which makes the procedure practically painless.

Caries and many other diseases of the teeth and gums in the early stages can develop almost imperceptibly, without causing pain or other symptoms that force you to consult a doctor. However, it is at this stage that the damage is minimal, and the treatment is most effective.

For timely diagnosis, experts recommend that adults and children undergo a dental examination at least once every 6 months, even in the absence of complaints. As for such a preventive procedure as professional teeth cleaning, it is recommended to do it once every 3-4 months.

If the patient has "problem" teeth or has chronic diseases, the dentist can give individual recommendations for the prevention of dental diseases and draw up an appropriate schedule for visiting the clinic.

The cost of services is calculated individually after consultation with a doctor. Make an appointment with the dentists of the Oxford Medical clinic to be confident in the health of your teeth and the beauty of your smile!
