The target is the oral cavity, aperture of gastrointestinal tract.
Dental diseases contributing to tooth loss are mainly dental caries and periodontal disease. Using effective preventive measures such as fluoride usage and prophylactic treatment, we provide adequate oral health management and maintenance care. We meet the patient needs and raise their degree of satisfaction with treatment. Above all, we strive to meet the natural need and desire to preserve teeth as long as possible. Patients are required to visit our clinic every 1–6 months. The effective caries and periodontal prevention promote oral health to a further advanced stage.
Bad breath management: Comprehensive inspection, diagnosis, and treatment will be given.
