What Is Preventative Dentistry?
Preventative dentistry is the foundation of long-term oral health. At North Haven Dentists, our team focuses on proactive care designed to prevent dental issues before they start. Through routine exams, cleanings, digital diagnostics, and patient education, we help individuals and families maintain strong, healthy smiles.
Led by Dr. M. Aruri, our office in North Haven, CT provides comprehensive preventative services with an emphasis on early detection, comfort, and long-term results.
Our Preventative Dental Services
We offer a full range of preventative dental treatments tailored to patients of all ages.
Dental Checkups and Oral Exams
Regular exams are crucial for maintaining oral health. During your visit, we examine your teeth and gums, screen for oral cancer, assess any changes since your last appointment, and create a personalized plan to keep your smile healthy.
Digital X-Rays
Our office uses low-radiation, high-precision digital X-rays to detect cavities, bone loss, infections, and other hidden issues. Digital imaging helps us diagnose early and monitor changes over time with enhanced accuracy.
Dental Sealants
Sealants are thin coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars to protect them from decay. They're especially helpful for children and teens, but adults without decay or fillings in their molars may benefit too.
Vital Pulp Therapy
When decay reaches close to the nerve in a child’s tooth, vital pulp therapy may be used to avoid the need for root canal treatment. This procedure keeps the tooth alive while eliminating infection and preserving long-term function.
Oral Hygiene Coaching
Our hygienists work with you to build strong at-home habits. We’ll show you the best brushing and flossing techniques, help you select the right products, and guide you on how to care for your teeth between visits.
Why Preventative Dentistry Matters
Preventative care saves you time, money, and discomfort. By catching dental problems early—or stopping them before they start—you can avoid complex procedures and keep your natural teeth healthy longer.
Preventative dentistry helps:
- Prevent cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss
- Detect early signs of oral cancer or systemic health issues
- Maintain fresh breath and oral hygiene
- Reduce the need for restorative procedures
- Improve overall wellness
We customize every treatment plan to meet the needs of each patient—from children to adults to seniors.

FAQs About Preventative Dentistry
What is included in a preventative dental appointment?
A typical preventative visit includes a dental cleaning, comprehensive oral exam, digital X-rays (as needed), and one-on-one time with your dentist to review findings and answer questions.
How often should I schedule dental checkups?
Most patients should visit the dentist every six months. Patients with periodontal concerns or other risk factors may benefit from more frequent visits.
Are dental sealants just for children?
While sealants are commonly used for children, adults with deep grooves in their molars and no existing fillings may also benefit from added protection.
What happens if I skip preventative care?
Avoiding dental visits can allow small problems like cavities or gingivitis to worsen into more serious issues that require extensive treatment.
Does insurance cover preventative dentistry?
Yes. Most dental insurance plans cover exams, cleanings, and X-rays as part of preventative care. We’ll help you understand your coverage and maximize your benefits.
