A woman’s dental health can be affected by changing hormone levels during puberty, pregnancy and menopause. It is important during these times that women are vigilant in maintaining their oral hygiene routine.

Assessing your personal risk for dental problems

Preventive dentistry is important for everyone regardless of age or gender. At Apple Dental we create a fully customised preventive treatment plan for you once we have assessed your oral health and the level of risk you may have for dental problems. We take into account factors such as changing hormone levels, diet and lifestyle choices (such as smoking) before recommending a thorough dental hygiene program.

Gaining and maintaining great oral hygiene
