EARLY DETECTION & PREVENTION FOR LIFELONG DENTAL HEALTH

PREVENTATIVE DENTISTRY

Ashwin Magan Dental Surgery, located in Upper Hutt, NZ, and proudly serving patients across Lower Hutt, Porirua, Kapiti, Wellington, and Wairarapa, is dedicated to maintaining lifelong oral health through modern preventative dentistry. Our comprehensive care focuses on early detection, education, and proactive treatment to help patients avoid dental issues before they develop.

REGULAR DENTAL CHECK-UPS & DIGITAL X-RAYS

Routine examinations and digital X-rays are vital components of preventative care. WE use advance imaging technology to detect cavities, infections, and early signs of gum disease long before symptoms appear.

Digital X-rays are quick, comfortable, and emit significantly less radiation than traditional methods. This allows us to monitor changes accurately over time and create personalised care plans tailored to your needs.

PROFESSIONAL TEETH CLEANINGS & POLISHING

Even with regular brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can accumulate in hard-to-reach areas. Professional cleanings remove these deposits, reducing the risk of gum inflammation and decay.

During your cleaning appointment we use gentle techniques to clean and polish your teeth. We also provide practical tips on oral hygiene routines, diet, and dental product use to help you maintain healthy teeth between visits.

FISSURE SEALANTS FOR CAVITY PREVENTION

Fissure sealants are a simple, non-invasive solution that helps protect the chewing surfaces of molars from decay. The sealant acts as a barrier, sealing off deep grooves where bacteria can hide.



This treatment is especially beneficial for children and teenagers but can also help adults who are prone to cavities. Application is quick, painless, and provides long-term protection for years of healthier smiles.

NIGHT GUARDS FOR TMJ, CLENCHING & GRINDING

Teeth grinding (also known as bruxism) and jaw clenching can cause severe wear, cracking, and jaw discomfort over time. Many people experience these issues during sleep without realising it.



At Ashwin Magan Dental Surgery, we offer custom-fitted night guards designed to protect your teeth and relieve jaw tension. Each device is crafted for comfort, durability, and a perfect fit, helping prevent damage caused by grinding and supporting joint health for patients with TMJ disorders.

PERIODONTAL CARE & GUM HEALTH

Healthy gums are essential for strong teeth and overall wellbeing. Our preventive care includes periodontal evaluations to identify signs of inflammation or gum disease.



Through deep cleanings and targeted maintenance plans, we help restore gum health and prevent progression to more severe conditions. Regular periodontal care not only protects your smile but also supports your systemic health, reducing risks linked to heart disease and diabetes.

BLIS PROBIOTICS

We proudly provide BLIS Probiotics as part of our comprehensive approach to oral health and wellbeing. BLIS Probiotics are scientifically developed to support a healthy balance of bacteria in the mouth and throat, promoting long-term oral wellness. Unlike traditional probiotics that target gut health, BLIS Probiotics focus on the oral microbiome, helping to reduce harmful bacteria that can cause bad breath, gum issues, and recurring throat infections.
