Preventative Dentist in Dallas

White Dental Spa understands that good oral hygiene is essential to optimum health

More and more studies show a link between oral health and systemic overall health. That’s why an investment in your preventative oral care can help you avoid painful and expensive medical or dental emergencies in the future. One of the ways White Dental Spa tries to help is by educating patients on the proper care of their teeth.

Plaque and tartar build up everyday, causing potential damage to a beautifully healthy smile. Even though insurance companies typically only cover professional cleanings twice a year, monthly cleanings can be extremely beneficial to good oral hygiene and the prevention of gum disease. Routine cleanings with your dentist in Dallas also prevent stain accumulation, curb bad breath, and help identify cavities and other issues before they get out of control.

Teeth Polishing is a great way to keep your pearly whites glossy and smooth. They’re perfect for a quick pick-me-up in between recommended dental cleanings, or if you’re short on time and need a brighter, cleaner smile. Polishing removes surface stains, smoothing out the surface of the teeth and making it more difficult for plaque to accumulate. Plus, it feels great…who doesn’t love that smooth, glossy feeling when they run their tongue over perfectly clean teeth?

Frequently asked questions

How can White Dental Spa help my child?

White Dental Spa loves meeting your little ones because it gives us a chance to introduce oral hygiene as an enjoyable experience early on in life. By helping teach kids why they need to take care of their teeth, and showing them their own plaque buildup using disclosing agents, children begin to fully understand the importance of good oral home care. We will also strengthen teeth with fluoride treatments, and apply sealants on teeth that need extra protection against cavities.

What can preventative dentistry do for me?

Preventative dentistry isn’t just for kids. Many adults can benefit from sealants on permanent teeth with grooves and fissures. We also have special pastes that can help remineralize enamel, and even reverse the start of some small cavities (depending on how deep they are). WHITE also carries prescription strength antimicrobial rinses and washes that are only available at a dental office. We will also send you home with our favorite electric toothbrush, The Rotadent.

Why is the Rotadent toothbrush better than Sonicare’s?

Rotadent is the only toothbrush that is only available through dental professionals. That is for a reason. They don’t need to advertise because once dentists have tried it, that is what they use themselves and recommend to their patients. Rotadent’s studies show that the secret to their effectiveness lies within its unique brush head. Each Rotadent brush head has 4,577 microfilaments – proprietary bristles that are 1/3 the width of traditional toothbrush bristles. These microfilaments are able to access areas that a standard bristle might miss- below the gumline and between teeth.

Will doing preventative treatment guarantee me a lifetime free of cavities?

Cavities are caused by four factors; environment (your mouth/teeth), sugar (diet), bacteria and genetics. Preventative treatment targets the environmental factor aspect of cavities. We try to make the environment in your mouth non-conducive to cavities by removing plaque, sealing pits and fissures, removing harmful bacteria and strengthening your enamel. This will significantly decrease the risk of future cavities. However, this alone may not be enough to prevent cavities altogether, especially if genetics, hygiene and diet is working against you. But we will work with you to target all 4 factors in reducing the risk of cavities.

Why should I get a cleaning more than once or twice a year?

Unfortunately many people are not aware that the 1-2x/year cleaning axiom is actually dictated by insurance companies. That is what they are willing to pay for your oral health. However, what insurance companies are willing to pay, has nothing to do with how often you should get your teeth cleaned. The truth is, the more often you get your teeth professionally cleaned, the better for your oral health. Routine cleanings are essential to good oral hygiene and gum disease prevention because they inhibit staining, plaque, tartar and bacterial accumulation, and help doctors identify any problems before they get out of hand. The plaque and bacteria that accumulate in between dental cleanings are what causes gum disease, cavities and bad breath. WHITE dental cleanings remove this excess buildup and keep your mouth healthy.

How does White Dental Spa perform a "medicated cleaning" aka "deep cleaning" without injections?

White Dental Spa is passionate about dentistry and wants to provide the best products and advances in technology to our patients. By using state-of-the-art equipment and techniques that traditional dental offices have not yet adapted, we are able to provide numbing without injections. You will be blown away by what we have to offer!
