Why Should I Get Preventive Dentistry?
Preventive dentistry is the practice of caring for your teeth to keep them healthy. This helps to avoid cavities, gum disease, enamel wear, and more. Regular visits to Dr. Hazim Sadeddin at Westover Dentistry in Arlington, VA, can help ensure that your oral health is in top shape. These checkups involve a thorough cleaning and examination of your teeth and gums, allowing for early detection of any potential issues. By catching problems early, preventative dentistry helps mitigate the risk of more extensive, painful, and costly treatment down the line.

What to Expect
The preventive dentistry process at Westover Dentistry begins with a comprehensive oral examination. Dr. Hazim Sadeddin will check your teeth and gums for any signs of decay, disease, or other issues. This is followed by a professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing can't reach. Depending on your oral health status, Dr. Sadeddin may recommend additional preventative measures such as dental sealants or fluoride treatments. With regular checkups and good oral hygiene practices at home, preventative dentistry can help you maintain a healthy, radiant smile.

How We Can Alleviate Your TMJ Pain:
Mouth Guards
Mouth guards are an essential protective appliance for those with Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TMJ/TMD). These specially designed guards not only protect teeth from impact injuries but also provide crucial cushioning to reduce trauma to the mouth, teeth, and jaw - areas particularly sensitive in TMJ/TMD patients.
Night Guards
For patients who experience bruxism, or teeth grinding, our team at Lowes Island Dentistry in Sterling, VA encourages you to be fitted for a night guard. Night guards, or bite guards, help to protect your teeth from crushing and grinding of teeth by providing a protective layer between your teeth.
