Preventive Dentistry

Greetings

With the present decrease in dental caries, as well as the aging society and declining birthrate, we provide dental care, including preventive care for people of all ages from children to elderly people. We diagnose susceptibility to tooth decay, provide specialist cleaning and fluoride procedures, and periodical preventive management for tooth decay and periodontal disease with the aim of conserving teeth for the future.
