Berthoud, CO – Dec. 1, 2020. The team at Berthoud Dental Care, headed by Dr. Jim Deschene, helps the public improve its dental health through the practice of preventative dentistry. Eliminating the bacteria that builds up in each person’s mouth and sticks to their gums and teeth requires regular visits to the dentist. Regular checkup dental exams can prevent inflammation and tooth loss.

Berthoud Dental Care’s process at each examination involves the dentist discussing a patient’s dental care methods and offering alternatives if the methods appear insufficient to avoid cavities and gum disease. To ensure high oral hygiene, a person should schedule a dental exam every six months. More frequent appointments should occur for smokers and anyone who experiences intermittent oral problems.

What Should a Dental Exam Accomplish?

The team at Berthoud Dental Care ensures that each person receives a regular tooth cleaning, performed by a dental hygienist, to remove plaque and any stained from the surface of their teeth. After the teeth cleaning, the dentists also check for signs of decay or gum disease. In many cases, they also perform x-rays to detect any problems that might escape the naked eye or lurk beneath the gums.

The dentist will provide recommendations for any changes in habits to achieve optimal oral health.

Dental Exam Preparation

The American Dental Association recommends the following for each person to maintain their dental health:

 

  • Brush teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste
  • Clean between teeth daily with dental floss
  • Eat a healthy diet that limits sugary beverages and snacks
  • See a dentist regularly for prevention and treatment of oral disease

 

Dentists recommend that each person use a soft or medium toothbrush and brush at a 45-degree angle. Move the brush in a circular motion, brushing the outside surfaces of the teeth. Hold the brush vertically to clean the inside surfaces of the upper and lower front teeth.

A new patient should bring to their initial visit their dental history, if possible, as well as information about any dental insurance coverage they may have. According to the dentists at Berthoud Dental Care, patients should not feel embarrassed to share their oral health habits since the dental team is there to help rather than judge each patient.

 

Preventative Dentistry

One of the preventive dentistry methods that Berthoud Dental Care employs is dental sealants, the use of which prevents decay from forming on the biting surface of the chewing teeth. The dental sealant procedure requires a dentist to paint a tooth-colored acrylic on the surface of any tooth needing to be sealed. The sealant enables the dentist to seal the deep grooves and protect the enamel from plaque.

The dentist requires only a few minutes to seal each tooth, but it results in protecting the grooves of the teeth from plaque that flossing and brushing cannot clean.

Products for Oral Hygiene

Patients can opt for high-tech electronic brushes but also need to remember to incorporate flossing. Patients should also use mouth rinse and fluoride toothpaste to reduce tooth decay.

The products and methods listed above will help prevent damage to the teeth. Still, once a person has plaque buildup, nothing gets rid of plaque and bacteria better than professional dental cleaning.
