Active Maintenance

At Withers Dental we believe that prevention is better than cure. In order to keep your teeth in good shape we recommend joining our Active Maintenance Program.

Our Active Maintenance Program holds the secret to a healthy mouth and general wellbeing. The aims of the program are to keep your teeth looking clean, your breath fresh, your gums healthy and to minimise tooth decay. Plaque bacteria is the cause of tooth decay and gum disease, yet it is totally preventable.

If bleeding gums seem a carefree complaint, take note that healthy gums do not bleed. Gums that appear to be red, puffy and bleed when brushing and/or flossing are unfortunately diseased. The scary part is redness left to fester not only increases the likelihood the jaw bone will rot from around the tooth (causing tooth loss) but will also give bacteria a gateway into the blood stream.  Cardiovascular disease and diabetes are just two of many health conditions that have strong links with infected gums and jaw bones.

Our Active Maintenance Program is designed to help prevent unnecessary mouth disease and the problems it can lead to. A 40 minute appointment with your dentist and hygienist every 6 months (or at an interval tailored to your individual requirements) will ensure that any problems can be treated before they affect your sleep and your savings. Consequently, these regular dental visits are one of the most important measures you can take.
