Our office emphasizes prevention and we look forward to taking care of your dental needs, including:
An oral exam, commonly referred to as a dental checkup, is the process used by dentists to carefully review your oral health. Dental X-rays are a critical part of the diagnostic process for oral health.
Teeth cleaning is part of oral hygiene and involves the removal of dental plaque from teeth to help prevent cavities, gingivitis, and periodontal disease.
Scaling and Root Planing is a deep cleaning below the gumline used to treat periodontal disease.
Fluoride is a natural mineral that builds strong teeth and prevents cavities. It’s been an essential oral health treatment for decades. Fluoride supports healthy tooth enamel and fights the bacteria that harm teeth and gums.
Dental sealant is a thin, plastic coating painted on the chewing surfaces of teeth — usually the back teeth (the premolars and molars) — to prevent tooth decay.
A composite filling is a tooth-colored plastic and glass mixture used to restore decayed teeth. Composites are also used for cosmetic improvements of the smile by changing the color of the teeth or reshaping disfigured teeth.
Crowns and bridges are prosthetic restorations that are designed to cover a tooth or teeth when they are too broken down or decayed to be restored with a filling.
Implant supported crowns and bridges are the finishing touches after dental implants have been installed. These restorations are screw-retained or cemented on top of the dental implants to replace missing teeth.
