Frequently Asked Questions About Preventive Care
How often should I receive preventive dental checkups and cleanings?
Most patients require routine exams and cleanings every 6 months. Patients with a history of periodontal disease, active braces, or high cavity risk benefit from a 3 to 4-month recall cycle.
What is ICON® Resin Infiltration and how does it differ from a traditional filling?
Traditional fillings require drilling away natural structure to repair cavities. ICON® is a drill-free, needle-free procedure for early, un-cavitated micro-lesions and white spots, infiltrating porous enamel without altering healthy tooth surface.
Who is a candidate for dental sealants and how long do they last?
Sealants are highly recommended for children and teenagers as soon as their permanent molars erupt (around ages 6 and 12), though adults with deep fissures also benefit. They can last up to 9–10 years with routine care.
Are preventive dentistry services covered by dental insurance?
Yes. Most PPO dental plans cover bi-annual cleanings, routine exams, and diagnostic X-rays at 100%. Coverage for sealants and specialty treatments varies, and our team will gladly verify your benefits prior to treatment.
