LEVEL 3 -- MAINTENANCE CARE (B)

People choose this level of care who want to take an active part in the prevention of present and future disease problems, but choose repair solutions that are more short range in duration. This is usually a 3-7 year repair oriented treatment, knowing that the dental treatment performed today will have to be repeated again in the near future. This level of patient is interested in preventing future problems, but takes care of today's needs in less than an optimum manner.
