Disease Prevention for Healthy Smiles
The foundation of preventive dental care in our Schaefferstown area dentist office is disease prevention – avoiding complex dental problems through routine dentistry and good oral hygiene. When you visit with Dr. Sara Gotwalt, you receive a comprehensive evaluation of your dental health, including the function of your jaw joints and bite. Identifying any underlying dental problems is the key to dentistry that will not only last, but provide a comfortable smile.

Cavity Prevention in Children
Tooth decay is one of the most common childhood diseases – and one that is easily preventable with routine dental care and good oral hygiene. Dr. Gotwalt recommends bringing your child in for their first dental visit by the age of 3 – and earlier if there are any concerns. The earlier children make good oral hygiene a daily habit, the more likely they will continue to care for their smile diligently as adults.
