  • Teaching brushing technique and correct flossing
  • Topical fluoride application
  • Dental plaque control
  • Pit and fissure sealants
  • Fillings made with different materials, tooth-colored in most cases
  • Extractions

Tips

Recommendations for better oral health

At Dental Zihuatanejo we care about your health. If you follow these tips, you will noticeably improve your oral health.

Brushing and flossing

Brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss daily to remove plaque between your teeth and below the gumline.

Visit the dentist

A check-up every 6 months keeps a problem from progressing untreated and allows it to be prevented in time.

Balanced diet

Cut down on sugary foods and, when you do eat them, have them with your meals rather than between meals. That way your teeth will be less exposed to bacterial acids.

The right amount of fluoride

Use products with the right amount of fluoride. The fluoride level in water varies by region; ask us which toothpaste suits you.
