Benefits of Prevention

Investing in preventive dental care offers significant benefits both for your oral health and your wallet. Regular preventive visits help avoid costly, extensive treatments by catching issues early when they're simpler to address. Moreover, the connection between oral health and overall health means that maintaining healthy teeth and gums contributes to your general wellbeing.

  • Avoid costly restorative treatments
  • Maintain natural teeth for a lifetime
  • Prevent discomfort from dental problems
  • Support overall health and wellness

We believe the best dental treatment is preventing problems before they start. Our preventive approach helps patients maintain beautiful, healthy smiles with minimal intervention.

Your preventive care journey at Marlton Modern Dentistry typically begins with a comprehensive examination and professional cleaning. Dr. Rockwell will thoroughly evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and existing dental work. Our hygienist will gently remove plaque and tartar buildup, polish your teeth, and provide personalized oral hygiene instruction. Digital x-rays may be taken to provide a complete picture of your oral health.

Based on your individual needs, we'll develop a personalized preventive care plan that may include more frequent cleanings, fluoride treatments, or specific home care recommendations. For patients with higher risk factors, we might suggest protective measures like dental sealants or custom nightguards. Our goal is to create a prevention strategy tailored to your unique oral health situation that keeps your smile healthy between visits.
