The signs to act on
What preventive dentistry covers
Preventive care isn't one treatment — it's a set of simple, regular steps that together keep your mouth healthy. Here's what it includes.
Regular dental checkupsA six-monthly examination lets us spot decay, gum disease and other problems while they're small — the single most valuable habit for your teeth.
Professional cleaning & polishingA scale and polish removes the hardened plaque and stain that brushing can't, keeping gums healthy and your smile bright.
Fluoride treatmentA quick fluoride application strengthens enamel and helps prevent cavities — especially useful for children and anyone prone to decay.
Early fillingsA small filling caught early stops decay before it reaches the nerve and needs a root canal — prevention in action.
Screening & X-raysWhere needed, X-rays reveal decay between teeth and problems below the gumline that aren't visible to the eye.
Advice tailored to youBrushing technique, diet and a recall interval matched to your risk — practical guidance that prevents the next problem.
What's involved
What a preventive visit at Arasu involves
A typical preventive appointment is quick and comfortable. Here's the usual sequence.
STEP 1
Examination
We check every tooth, your gums, your bite and the soft tissues, using X-rays where needed to see between and inside the teeth.
STEP 2
Clean & polish
Plaque, tartar and surface stain are removed with a professional scale and polish, leaving the gums healthier and teeth smoother.
STEP 3
Protect
Where useful, we apply fluoride to strengthen enamel, and discuss brushing, diet and any early problems we've found.
STEP 4
Plan the recall
We set a personalised interval — usually six months — and treat anything small straight away before it grows.
Comfortable and quick. Most preventive visits take under an hour and are entirely painless. If we find something small, we can often treat it in the same visit, saving you a second trip.
Care for the whole family. We see children, adults and older patients, and tailor prevention to each — from a child's first checkup to protecting an older patient's remaining natural teeth.

Straight talk
Honest considerations before you decide
Preventive dentistry is low-risk and high-value, but a few honest points are worth knowing.
What to weigh up first
- It only works if it's regular. A checkup every few years misses the window where problems are easy to fix. The value is in consistency — six-monthly for most people.
- No checkup replaces home care. Twice-daily brushing and cleaning between the teeth do the day-to-day work; professional care backs it up. One without the other isn't enough.
- Some issues still need a specialist. Prevention catches problems early, but advanced decay, gum disease or alignment issues may need dedicated treatment — which we can arrange in-house.
- X-rays are used judiciously. We take them only when they add real diagnostic value, keeping exposure as low as reasonably possible.
Individual needs vary based on your risk of decay and gum disease, age and general health. Consult our dentists for a personalised preventive plan.
Cost
What preventive dentistry costs in Coimbatore
Preventive care is among the most affordable dentistry there is — and it saves you the far higher cost of the treatment it prevents. These factors set your figure.
| What affects the cost | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What's included | A checkup alone differs from a checkup with cleaning, fluoride and X-rays. |
| Cleaning needed | A light polish differs from removing heavier tartar build-up. |
| X-rays | Whether X-rays are needed to check between or inside teeth. |
| Any early treatment | A small filling done in the same visit is priced separately. |
| Recall frequency | How often you visit, matched to your individual risk. |

General & preventive dentistry: FAQs
For most people a checkup every six months is ideal — often enough to catch decay and gum disease while they're still small and easy to treat. If you're at higher risk, we may recommend more frequent visits.
We examine every tooth, your gums, bite and soft tissues, take X-rays if needed, and usually clean and polish your teeth. We'll flag anything early and, if it's small, often treat it in the same visit.
Yes. A checkup and clean cost a fraction of the fillings, root canals or extractions they help you avoid — and consistent preventive care is the single biggest factor in keeping your natural teeth for life.
Absolutely. Decay and gum disease are often painless until they're advanced. A checkup catches them while you still feel fine — which is exactly when they're easiest to fix.
Modern dental X-rays use very low doses of radiation and we only take them when they add real diagnostic value — to see decay between teeth or problems below the gumline that aren't otherwise visible.
Very much so. Early checkups, cleaning, fluoride and good habits set children up for a lifetime of healthy teeth. We also offer dedicated paediatric care for younger patients.
A checkup is one of the most affordable things we do; the exact figure depends on whether cleaning, fluoride or X-rays are included. We confirm it upfront, and accept cash, UPI, card, net banking and EMI options.
