Preventative dental treatments like fissure sealants and sports mouthguards are safe and painless measures that protect your teeth. Talk to the dental team at Atria Dental® in Gordon to learn more about these treatments, or book a consultation to get a fitting.
If you notice small grooves (or fissures) in your child’s or your own teeth, a fissure sealant procedure may be needed to prevent dental decay.
Fissure sealants, also known as dental sealants, act as a protective coating that stops bacteria from entering the grooves in the teeth and causing painful cavities. They are usually applied to back teeth where there is a higher likelihood of food and other bacteria entering the grooves and causing decay.
Dental sealants are common in children’s dentistry to prevent tooth decay and protect their overall wellbeing. Our highly experienced dentists in Gordon take a patient and compassionate approach with children’s dentistry and anxious patients. We aim to create a relaxing and comfortable environment where all questions are answered and you always feel welcome and heard.
Dental injuries and accidents are common during contact sports and high-impact exercises such as skateboarding or mountain biking. Wearing a sports mouthguard fitted by a dentist is a simple yet effective way to reduce the risk of dental trauma.
A mouthguard is a thick, spongy, removable shield that fits over the teeth and protects the wearer from severe harm to their mouth and jaw. While it is popular among contact sports players, it is a beneficial safety measure for children and adults participating in any high impact activity.
At our Gordon practice, we offer custom-made mouthguards and comprehensive dental care to suit you and your family’s needs.
Unlike traditional ‘bite guards’ which can be bulky and uncomfortable to wear, our custom mouthguards provide a more comfortable fit as well as improved protection. If your child or you are involved in contact sports, high-impact exercises, or any accident-prone activity we advise using a custom sports mouthguard to help protect your teeth.
