Treatment
Protect dişləriniz for a lifetime with a fərdi preventive care programme that catches problems early and keeps your mouth healthy.
About the treatment
Preventive dentistry for adults is a proactive approach to ağız sağlamlığı that focuses on stopping dental problems before they start rather than treating them after damage has occurred. While most people associate the dentist with fillings, extractions, and pain, the reality is that the vast majority of dental diseases are entirely preventable with the right care routine and professional support. The foundation of adult preventive dentistry includes regular professional examinations, dental cleanings (prophylaxis), flüor treatments, and fərdi risk assessments. BestDent-də, we go beyond simply looking for existing problems. We evaluate your individual risk factors for cavities, diş əti xəstəliyi, oral cancer, and tooth wear, then create a tailored prevention strategy that addresses your specific vulnerabilities. Adult ağız sağlamlığı faces unique challenges that differ from childhood. Gum recession exposes vulnerable root surfaces to decay. Medications for blood pressure, depression, allergies, and other conditions cause dry mouth, dramatically increasing cavity risk. Accumulated stress leads to teeth grinding that wears down mina and cracks teeth. Previous dental work like fillings and crowns ages and develops gaps where bacteria can infiltrate. Without active preventive management, these factors compound over time. The evidence is clear: patients who maintain regular preventive care keep their təbii dişlər significantly longer, require far fewer emergency visits, and spend substantially less on diş müalicəsi over their lifetimes. Prevention is not just better for dişləriniz; it is better for your overall health, as diş əti xəstəliyi has been linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes complications, respiratory infections, and adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Müalicə Prosesi
Comprehensive Oral Examination
Your dentist performs a thorough examination of every tooth, the gums, tongue, cheeks, palate, throat, and jaw joints. This includes checking for cavities, cracks, gum pockets, bite abnormalities, signs of teeth grinding, and any suspicious soft tissue changes. The goal is a complete picture of your current ağız sağlamlığı status.
Digital Radiographic Assessment
Low-dose digital X-rays reveal problems invisible to the naked eye, including decay between teeth, sümük itkisi around roots, hidden infections, and impacted teeth. The frequency of X-rays is tailored to your risk level, with most patients needing bitewing films annually and a full-mouth series every three to five years.
Oral Cancer Screening
A systematic visual and tactile examination of all soft tissues in the mouth, including the tongue, floor of the mouth, palate, and throat, checks for any unusual lumps, sores, colour changes, or textural abnormalities. Early detection of oral cancer dramatically improves survival rates, making this screening a vital part of every yoxlama.
Personalised Risk Assessment
Based on your examination findings, medical history, medications, diet, and lifestyle, diş həkiminiz assigns risk levels for cavities, diş əti xəstəliyi, and tooth wear. This assessment determines the specific preventive measures you need and how frequently you should return for professional care.
Professional Cleaning and Scaling
A dental hygienist uses ultrasonic instruments and hand scalers to remove plaque and calcified tartar from above and below the gum line. The teeth are then polished with a prophylaxis paste to remove surface stains and create a smooth surface that resists plaque accumulation. Stubborn stains may be addressed with an air-polishing system.
Fluoride Treatment and Desensitisation
Professional flüor varnish is applied to strengthen mina and protect exposed root surfaces. For patients with sensitivity, desensitising agents are applied to vulnerable areas. This treatment takes just minutes and provides protection that lasts for months.
Personalised Home Care Coaching
Your dental team demonstrates the most effective brushing and flossing techniques for your specific situation, recommends appropriate products such as electric toothbrushes, interdental brushes, or prescription-strength flüor rinses, and addresses dietary habits that may be undermining your ağız sağlamlığı. This coaching is tailored, not generic.
Treatment Planning and Recall Scheduling
Any identified issues are discussed with clear treatment options and priorities. Your next preventive appointment is scheduled based on your individual risk level, typically every three to six months. High-risk patients benefit from shorter intervals, while low-risk patients may extend to annual visits.
Tez-tez Verilən Suallar
How often should adults visit the dentist for a yoxlama?
Most adults should visit every six months, but the ideal frequency depends on your individual risk profile. Patients with active diş əti xəstəliyi, high cavity rates, or systemic health conditions may need appointments every three to four months. Low-risk patients with excellent ağız sağlamlığı may be able to extend to annual visits.
Is professional cleaning really necessary if I brush and floss daily?
Yes. Even with excellent home care, plaque hardens into tartar within 24 to 48 hours in areas that are difficult to reach. Once tartar forms, it cannot be removed with a toothbrush or floss. Professional cleaning also removes the bacterial biofilm that forms below the gum line, where your toothbrush simply cannot reach.
Are preventive diş müalicəsis painful?
The vast majority of preventive treatments, including examinations, X-rays, flüor application, and routine cleanings, are painless. If you have sensitive teeth or significant tartar build-up, the cleaning may cause brief discomfort, but your hygienist can use a topical numbing gel or adjust their technique to keep you comfortable.
Why should I visit the dentist if nothing hurts?
Most dental diseases are painless in their early stages. Cavities can grow to a significant size before causing symptoms, and diş əti xəstəliyi can destroy bone around teeth without any pain at all. By the time you feel pain, the problem is usually advanced and requires more complex treatment. Regular yoxlamas catch issues when they are small and simple to fix.
Does preventive dentistry really save money in the long run?
Overwhelmingly, yes. A professional cleaning and yoxlama is a fraction of the cost of a kök kanalı, crown, implant, or gum surgery. Studies consistently show that patients who maintain regular preventive care spend significantly less on diş müalicəsi over their lifetimes than those who only visit when problems arise.
Can diş əti xəstəliyi be reversed?
Gingivitis, the earliest stage of diş əti xəstəliyi, is fully reversible with professional cleaning and improved home care. Once it progresses to periodontitis, where sümük itkisi has occurred, the damage cannot be reversed but can be stopped and managed. This is precisely why early detection through regular yoxlamas is so critical.
What is the connection between ağız sağlamlığı and general health?
Extensive research has established links between diş əti xəstəliyi and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, respiratory infections, rheumatoid arthritis, and complications during pregnancy. The chronic inflammation and bacteria associated with untreated diş əti xəstəliyi can enter the bloodstream and affect organs throughout the body.
How does smoking affect dental health?
Smoking is one of the most significant risk factors for diş əti xəstəliyi, dramatically increasing the rate of sümük itkisi around teeth. It also impairs healing after dental procedures, increases cavity risk due to dry mouth, stains teeth, and is the leading cause of oral cancer. Quitting smoking is one of the best things you can do for your ağız sağlamlığı.
What should I do if I haven't been to the dentist in years?
Simply book an appointment. There is no judgement, and it is never too late to start taking care of dişləriniz. Your dentist will perform a hərtərəfli assessment, address any urgent issues first, and then create a realistic plan to get your ağız sağlamlığı back on track step by step.
Does BestDent offer fərdi preventive care plans?
Yes. BestDent-də, every patient receives a fərdi risk assessment and a tailored preventive care programme. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, we evaluate your specific risk factors and design a plan that includes the right appointment frequency, targeted treatments, and home care recommendations for your individual needs.
