DENTIST, ANTALYA
At Dr. Ozan Metin’s Patara Dent Dental Clinic we believe in practicing proactive preventative dental care. This means that most of the treatments that we do are done in order to prevent dentistry disorders and prevent the need for further treatment. Preventative dental care is thus about keeping your teeth and gums healthy to avoid cavities, enamel wear and gum disease.
We encourage patients to visit us for regular check-ups as part of our preventive care program, usually 6 monthly. At your regular check-up, we will examine your teeth, gums, and mouth for general health and any symptoms of disease. We may recommend that an x-ray is taken to help us to check for dental problems that are not visible. Regular check-ups will ensure that your teeth and gums remain healthy and clean. Check-ups also ensure that any dental problems are uncovered early – when treatment is usually straightforward and relatively low in cost.
We will perform a thorough cleaning of your teeth and gums to remove plaque buildup, tartar and stains. By getting your teeth cleaned on a regular basis, you can help to prevent periodontal (gum) disease that can cause significant dental problems, including tooth loss, if left undetected and untreated. We also encourage patients to a look after their teeth every day – through regular tooth brushing, flossing, and a healthy, balanced diet.
Please contact us to make an appointment and please do remember; good preventive care can help to ensure that your teeth last a lifetime.
