Prevention is Better than Cure

Prevention is Better than Cure: Our Preventive Approach at Veemarkt Dental Practice

Are you looking for a dental practice that believes in the power of prevention? At Tandartspraktijk Veemarkt in Utrecht, we specialize in a proactive approach that focuses on preventing oral problems so that you need fewer treatments. We believe that a healthy mouth starts with good prevention, and we are happy to help you make it happen.

Why Prevention is So Crucial.
Common oral problems such as cavities (caries), gum disease(gingivitis and periodontitis) and tooth erosion are largely preventable. Regular checkups and professional cleanings, combined with good oral hygiene at home, are the basis for a permanently healthy mouth. By intervening early and minimizing risks, we prevent small problems from growing into larger, more complex - and often more expensive - treatments. This means less time in the dental chair and more time enjoying a healthy smile!

Our Preventive Philosophy at Dental Practice Veemarkt
At Veemarkt Dental Practice, we take a holistic approach to prevention. This means we look beyond just brushing your teeth. Our approach includes:

• Personal Oral Hygiene Instruction: Our dental hygienists and prevention assistants take extensive time to teach you proper brushing techniques, the use of floss, brushes or toothpicks, and other essential oral care advice. This guidance is always tailored to your individual needs and oral situation.
• Regular Checkups: During your regular checkup, we thoroughly examine your teeth and gums for the smallest signs of problems. By identifying potential risks early, we can offer immediate advice or make minor interventions that prevent larger treatments.
• Professional Dental Cleaning: Our dental hygienists remove plaque and tartar that you cannot brush away yourself. This is essential for preventing inflammation and cavities.
• Fluoride treatments: When necessary, we apply fluoride treatments to strengthen tooth enamel to prevent cavities, especially in children and high-risk patients.
• Dietary advice: Your eating and drinking habits have a major impact on your oral health. We are happy to advise you on an oral-friendly diet to minimize tooth erosion and cavities.
• Sealing of Teeth: In children and young adults, we can seal grooves in molars to prevent food particles and bacteria from settling here and causing cavities.

Your Partner in Oral Health
Our goal is to give you the knowledge and resources to take an active role in maintaining your oral health yourself. We see ourselves as your partner in prevention. By working together, we ensure that your teeth are optimally protected and that the risk of major dental treatment is significantly reduced. You'll notice the difference: a healthy mouth that requires less frequent dental treatment.
