Cavities are one of the most common oral health concerns, but they are also highly preventable. CariFree cavity prevention focuses on reducing the risk of tooth decay by addressing the underlying causes, such as bacterial imbalances and pH levels in the mouth. Our dentist and team use advanced techniques to help patients maintain strong, healthy teeth and prevent cavities before they start.

Understanding the Causes of Cavities

While brushing and flossing are essential for oral health, other factors also play a role in cavity development. Saliva production, diet, oral pH balance and bacterial levels all contribute to the likelihood of decay. Traditional methods focus on treating cavities after they form, but CariFree takes a proactive approach by addressing these underlying factors.

The CariFree system evaluates cavity risk by analyzing oral bacteria and pH levels. This approach allows our dentist to create personalized strategies to prevent decay before it begins. By maintaining a healthy oral environment, patients can significantly reduce their risk of cavities and long-term dental issues.
