Prevent worse: spotting early dental problems
Dental problems can develop gradually and worsen if they aren't noticed in time. That is why it is important to book regular check-ups at Dental House Zierikzee, so any problems can be identified and treated early.
Plaque and tartar
One of the most common dental problems is plaque and tartar. This is caused by a build-up of bacteria and food debris on and between the teeth, and can lead to decay and gum inflammation. You can remove plaque yourself by brushing and flossing thoroughly every day. If plaque isn't removed regularly, however, it hardens into tartar, which can only be removed by a dentist or dental hygienist.
Cavities
Another common problem is cavities, caused by decay which in turn is caused by bacteria in the mouth. Cavities can start painlessly, but if they aren't treated in time they can penetrate deep into the tooth and even affect the nerve tissue, which can make a root canal treatment necessary.

Oral hygiene and prevention
Prevention is the foundation of healthy teeth. Our dental hygienists are happy to help you remove plaque and tartar and to advise you on how to prevent it yourself. We also carry out regular check-ups to spot early problems and intervene in good time where needed.
Root canal treatment
If a cavity penetrates deep into the tooth and affects the nerve tissue, a root canal treatment may be necessary. The inflamed tissue is removed and the tooth is cleaned and filled. At Dental House Zierikzee we use the latest technology to carry out this treatment as efficiently and painlessly as possible.
Tips for healthy teeth
Alongside regular check-ups at Dental House Zierikzee, there are habits and mistakes you can address yourself to prevent early dental problems:
- Brush your teeth at least twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste.
- Floss or use interdental sticks to clean between your teeth.
- Limit sugary products and drink plenty of water.
- Don't use your teeth as tools, for example to open something.
