What is Preventive Dentistry?

Preventive dentistry is a proactive approach to oral healthcare aimed at preventing dental issues before they become more severe and costly to treat. The goal is to maintain optimal oral health through regular check-ups, education, and early intervention. At Kiefer Family Dental, we believe that prevention is better than cure, and our dedicated team of professionals is here to help you achieve and maintain a healthy smile.
