Preventive/Hygiene Care

At Comfort Care Dentistry, we are committed to your long term oral health.

Our preventative care team will work with you to create a customised oral hygiene solution to ensure your teeth and gums are kept in optimal condition. Preventative care is very important to your oral health. Neglect to teeth and gums can lead to tooth mobility, tooth decay (caries), halitosis(bad breath), gingivitis and periodontitis.

Apart from the implications to your oral health, periodontitis is also linked to systemic disease including;

  • Heart Disease
  • Diabetes
  • Respiratory Disease
  • Liver Disease
  • Kidney Disorders
