The goal of every dentist is to ensure their patients’ teeth and gums are healthy, strong and clean. That’s why we practice preventative dentistry – to stop disease and decay from causing problems with your future oral health.
At The Haringey Dentist we believe that looking after your teeth now, means they are better looked after in the future. We want to help you keep your teeth and gums as clean and healthy as possible so that you avoid the need for treatment or procedures at a later date.
Caring for your teeth at home
The first step towards positive oral health is to care for your teeth at home and to ensure you have a good daily routine.
We recommend taking up the following home care routine:
- Brush your teeth at least twice a day
- Floss at least once a day
- Use dental-approved products
- Stop smoking
- Keep good eating and drinking habits

How will The Haringey Dentist care for your teeth?
When you attend for a routine appointment, we will thoroughly examine your teeth. Any build-up of plaque will be removed through a professional clean and polish.
We may take dental x-rays to determine whether your teeth need additional support. If so, we can use preventative treatments to boost your oral health. This may include any of the following:
- Using fluoride treatments
- Applying strengthening restorations such as fillings, crowns, inlays or onlays to an affected tooth or teeth
- Cleaning teeth and gums to remove plaque and harmful bacteria
- Providing a mouth guard to reduce impact of teeth grinding (bruxism)
