Thorough Health Assessment
Your preventive visit begins with comprehensive evaluation of your oral health status, medical history, and risk factors. This assessment considers changes since your last visit and identifies areas requiring attention or monitoring for optimal oral health maintenance.
Professional Cleaning
Thorough professional cleaning removes plaque and tartar buildup that regular home care cannot eliminate. Dr. Mila Poznyak’s personal attention to cleanings during the practice’s initial phase ensures exceptional thoroughness and individualized care for every patient.
Comprehensive Examination
Detailed examination includes evaluation of teeth, gums, bite function, and oral tissues using advanced diagnostic tools. This thorough assessment enables early detection of potential problems while monitoring changes in your oral health over time.
Personalized Oral Health Education
Customized guidance addresses your specific oral health needs, risk factors, and home care techniques. Education includes proper brushing and flossing methods, dietary recommendations, and lifestyle factors that support optimal oral health.
Preventive Treatment Planning
Based on your examination and risk assessment, we develop personalized preventive strategies that may include fluoride treatments, sealants, or specialized cleaning schedules to maintain your optimal oral health between visits.
Professional Cleanings: Thorough plaque and tartar removal using advanced techniques and instruments ensures optimal oral hygiene maintenance. Professional cleanings address areas that home care cannot reach while providing early detection opportunities for developing problems.
Comprehensive Examinations: Detailed oral health evaluations include digital imaging, periodontal assessment, and bite analysis to identify current issues and potential future concerns. These thorough examinations enable proactive treatment planning and early intervention strategies.
Fluoride Treatments: Professional fluoride applications strengthen tooth enamel and provide additional protection against cavities. These treatments are especially beneficial for patients at higher risk for decay or those with specific oral health challenges.
Preventive Sealants: Protective sealants on cavity-prone surfaces provide additional protection against decay in hard-to-clean areas. These preventive treatments are particularly effective for children and adults with deep grooves or fissures in their teeth.
Dr. Mila Poznyak’s approach to preventive care emphasizes addressing small problems before they become major issues requiring extensive treatment. This philosophy saves patients time, money, and discomfort while maintaining optimal oral health throughout their lifetime.
Regular monitoring enables identification of developing problems when treatment options are most conservative and successful. Early intervention often prevents the need for more complex procedures while preserving natural tooth structure and function.
Preventive strategies are customized based on individual risk factors, lifestyle, and oral health history to provide the most effective protection against future problems. This personalized approach ensures optimal results for each patient’s unique needs.
Advanced radiographic technology provides detailed views of tooth structure and surrounding tissues while minimizing radiation exposure. Digital imaging enables early detection of problems not visible during clinical examination.
High-resolution cameras allow detailed visualization of oral structures and help patients understand their oral health status. This technology improves communication and education while documenting changes over time.
Specialized instruments and techniques enable precise monitoring of gum health and early detection of periodontal disease. Regular periodontal assessment prevents progression of gum disease through early intervention.
Children’s Preventive Care: Age-appropriate preventive services establish healthy oral care habits while protecting developing teeth. Pediatric preventive care includes education for parents and children about proper oral hygiene and dietary choices.
Adult Preventive Maintenance: Comprehensive preventive care for adults addresses changing oral health needs while maintaining optimal function and appearance. Adult programs consider lifestyle factors, medical conditions, and individual risk factors.
Senior Preventive Services: Specialized preventive care for older adults addresses age-related oral health challenges including medication effects, dry mouth, and complex health conditions that affect oral health maintenance.
Preventive care extends beyond professional visits to include comprehensive home care guidance and support. Personalized instruction ensures patients understand proper techniques for maintaining oral health between professional cleanings and examinations.
Customized home care recommendations consider individual needs, abilities, and risk factors to provide the most effective oral hygiene strategies. This education empowers patients to take active roles in maintaining their oral health.
Regular reinforcement and updates to home care techniques ensure patients continue using the most effective methods while adapting to changes in their oral health needs over time.
