Make Prevention a Priority: Keep Your Smile Healthy and Bright

You know you’re supposed to visit the dentist for a regular checkup and cleaning at least twice a year, but between work and family commitments, it can be difficult to find the time. So, you put it off until something happens. Maybe your gums start bleeding when you brush, a sign of gum disease, or you’ve noticed some pain on your left side when you chew. Maybe you let it go even longer, and wait to make the call until you’re really in pain and seeing the dentist is no longer something you can keep putting off, it’s something you need to do right away.

These types of situations are not only stressful, costly and painful, they’re completely avoidable. Scheduling recare visits at Dr. Danny Moosa’s Polaris office will help keep you from experiencing such a scenario. Dr. Moosa and his team at Parkway Family Dental are focused on preventing dental problems and providing the care you need to maintain a healthy smile.

Now is the time to make preventing dental problems a priority for you and your family—and it starts with scheduling routine recare visits with Dr. Moosa. Here’s a look at how Dr. Moosa and his team in Columbus, Ohio, can help improve your dental health and prevent problems from costing you time and money.

Dr. Moosa provides comprehensive care.

Dr. Moosa will complete a thorough exam each time you visit. If he spots any issues, he’ll act right away. The Polaris based team will go over the options with you and develop a treatment plan that best fits your needs and goals, and that’s as minimally invasive as possible. Small issues will be addressed before they become big issues, saving you both time and money in the long run.

You’ll receive a thorough cleaning.

Using the best, most effective tools, one of Dr. Moosa’s experienced dental hygienists will efficiently clean the tarter and plaque from your teeth so you leave with a renewed, healthier smile. Before you go, the hygienist will complete fluoride treatment—a critical part of the appointment. Fluoride not only prevents tooth decay, it can speed up re-mineralization and disrupt acid erosion. It only takes a few minutes to apply, but it can have a positive impact on your oral health long after you leave your appointment.

Dr. Moosa has a high-tech practice.

Dr. Moosa and the team at Parkway Family Dental use the most advanced technologies, including digital x-rays, intraoral cameras, intraoral scanners and cone beam imaging to complete comprehensive exams. Dr. Moosa has invested in these solutions because they provide more information for improved diagnosis and enhanced treatment planning, as well as a better patient experience. Digital intraoral scans are a lot more comfortable than traditional impression trays, for example, and they also capture the needed information in less time. Dr. Moosa quickly gets a detailed view of what’s going on in your mouth, and you spend less time in the chair.

They’re a true partner in your care.

Dr. Moosa and his Polaris based team take the time to get to know their patients. During that first visit, they ask questions about your history and your dental goals and help you develop a plan to reach them. They’ll keep checking in during your recare visits to see if anything’s changed and will update you if they find any issues during the exam. The team will make you comfortable during every visit and keep you informed of exactly what’s going on and why. They’re a true partner in your care, and value you not only as a patient, but as a person.

The Parkway Family Dental team gives you guidance.

‍Education is a priority at this Columbus, Ohio, office. Dr. Moosa and his Polaris team won’t just hand you a treatment plan and send you on your way, expecting you to accept treatment just because they said you should. They will take the time to go over treatment and what to expect before, during and after, why they’re recommending treatment, what might happen if you decide to put treatment off, the cost and what insurance will cover. They’ll answer any questions you have, so you know exactly what to expect and are confident moving forward. They’ll also offer guidance on home care to help you prevent issues in the future, giving you recommendations and even samples of products they know and trust.

A dental office you can rely on

Dr. Moosa and the team at Parkway Family Dental are committed to providing exceptional patient care. They’re focused on helping you prevent problems, and will offer the most minimally invasive treatment options when you do need services beyond routine exams and cleanings. The experienced, caring team loves improving smiles and educating patients on how to keep their mouths, and ultimately their bodies, healthy. And it all starts by scheduling recare visits and following the home care guidance they provide.
