Preventive Care At Alice Hyde Dental Center we stress preventive care as the best means of maintaining good oral health. Regular cleaning and exams not only allow us to catch decay in its earliest stages, but also to prevent and treat periodontol disease. We recommend that our patients come in twice a year for routine cleaning appointments; however, sometimes more frequent visits are necessary. We also recommend fluoride treatments and sealants, which are highly effective forms of preventive care, especially for children. A member of our staff will be happy to address any questions or concerns you may have and to explain these standards and procedures to you. Educational literature is also available. Services

We ask taht all of our paitnets work with us to obtain this goal. Our objective is to build a relationship with you based on trust, communication, and cooperation.
