Preventive & General Dentistry

A preventive dental treatment schedule can keep your teeth and gums healthy for a lifetime. 

Professional Teeth Cleaning

We recommend that you get your teeth cleaned by a registered dental hygienist 2 times a year in order to maintain good oral health. A teeth cleaning appointment is when your hygienist removes surface stains, plaque and tartar from tooth surfaces. Then your teeth are polished and flossed. They are also able to look at your gums and teeth for signs of disease and decay. Cleanings help to prevent cavities, gingivitis, and periodontal disease

Dental Sealants

Dental sealants are thin, plastic coatings applied on the chewing surfaces of teeth to prevent tooth decay. The sealant quickly bonds into the depressions and grooves of the teeth, forming a protective shield over the enamel of each tooth. Sealants can be reapplied if necessary.

Home Care Instruction

We will help you with your home care regimen so that you can keep your teeth and mouth healthy between appointments because it takes more than professional cleanings to keep your teeth and gums healthy.

Dental X-Rays

We use dental X-rays to evaluate aspects of your oral health that can’t be seen on the surface. X-rays are used with low levels of radiation to capture images of the interior of your teeth and gums. This helps to identify disease and decay at their earliest stages. We use digital X-ray technology to provide instant images of your teeth.

Fluoride Treatments

Fluoride is very important for healthy teeth. Fluoride treatment may offer benefits to those at risk of tooth decay. It can help protect your teeth and may be recommended for both children and adults.

Patient Education

We want you to feel confident in taking care of your dental health. With so many products out there, we can help you know how to use the ones that will best treat your dental needs. Whether it’s a certain toothbrush, toothpaste, or how to properly floss, we want you to have the knowledge you need to succeed. We will do all we can to educate you regarding your individual needs so that you can feel confident when it comes to your oral health.
