Oral health with Noosa Family Dental
At Noosa Family Dental we are all about prevention first.
Prevent cavities
Even with regular brushing and flossing, it is still hard for you to reach every area of your mouth. This results in a build-up of plaque and tartar that, if left unchecked, can lead to holes and cavities.
Preventative dentistry strategies help to prevent dental cavities from developing in the first place. As experts, we are able to offer professional cleaning and enamel strengthening treatments that will protect your teeth from decay.
Prevent gum disease
Gum disease, also called periodontal disease are caused by plaque build-up which leads to inflammation of the gums.
If left untreated, this can result in pain, tooth loss and other problems that require emergency care. Preventing gum disease is simple when you visit the dentist on a regular basis.
We will be able to remove tartar and plaque buildup, control any infections and fight off disease-causing bacteria.
Eliminate bad breath
Not only is bad breath unpleasant, it is also usually an indication of a deeper dental problem, especially if you practice good regular dental hygiene.
Bad breath can be caused by factors including dry mouth, tooth decay or an infection.
Our expert general dentists and hygienists are able to help to identify the root cause of bad breath as well as provide solutions to effectively treat it.
Improve your smile
Preventative dentistry is not just about saving you from pain and tooth loss. Preventing dental issues can go a long way in improving the appearance of your smile and boosting your confidence.
Regular checkups and teeth cleaning will keep discolouration at bay, and remove any build-up that may lead to decay and unsightly gum recession.

Preventative dentistry FAQs
Have a question?
How often should I see my dentist?
You should see your dentist at least twice a year for a professional cleaning and checkup. However, if you have any specific concerns, you may need to see your dentist more frequently. Additionally, if you have poor oral hygiene or are at high risk for cavities or gum disease, your dentist may recommend that you come in more often.
Should I floss?
Yes. Flossing is an important part of oral hygiene and preventative care as it helps remove plaque from your teeth and gums. It is recommended that you floss before you brush as it loosens any bacteria, plaque, and food that’s stuck between your teeth. Then, when you go to brush your teeth, you will brush this away.
My cavity doesn’t hurt. Do I need a filling?
Cavities don’t usually cause pain until they are quite extensive, which is why it’s important to visit your dentist regularly. If a cavity is caught early, it can be treated with a simple filling. However, if it’s left untreated, it can become larger and need more advanced and expensive treatment.
