Protect Your Smile for Life with Ongoing Preventive Care

At Wye Dental in Sherwood Park, we’re passionate about preventive dental care for a variety of reasons.

Not only do diligent preventive dental measures help keep your teeth and gums healthy in the short and long term—which, in turn, reduces your risk of developing tooth decay or gum disease—they can also help identify problems early on, before they become more serious. This enables you to receive the treatment you need as soon as possible, which can save you time, money, and stress.

What’s more, preventive dental care is important for your overall health. Studies have shown that there are numerous links between oral health and overall health. This means that by taking care of your mouth, you’re also helping reduce your risk of developing other serious health conditions.

How Can I Take a Preventive Approach to Caring for My Oral Health?

There are a few key steps you can take to implement a proactive, preventive approach. First, brush your teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste to remove plaque and bacteria from your teeth and gums. Additionally, floss at least once a day to remove food and plaque from between your teeth. Finally, see us bi-annually for checkups and cleanings to ensure that any problems are detected and treated early.
