CAMBRA Tooth Decay Assessment at Anchor Dental

At Anchor Dental in San Francisco, Dr. Yener is committed to providing comprehensive and preventive dental care. One of the most effective tools we use to protect your oral health is the CAMBRA (Caries Management By Risk Assessment) approach. This scientifically proven method helps us assess your risk of tooth decay and create a personalized plan to maintain and improve your dental health.

What is CAMBRA?

CAMBRA stands for Caries Management By Risk Assessment. It’s a preventative strategy designed to evaluate your risk factors for tooth decay (caries) and develop a tailored treatment plan. By identifying the specific factors contributing to your risk, we can implement targeted preventive measures to reduce the likelihood of decay and ensure long-term oral health.
