Procedures Offered
Comprehensive Oral Examination
A comprehensive oral examination allows our dentists to check the state of your oral health and detect any emerging problems. The dentist also looks for signs of oral cancer, which is most treatable at early stages. Digital X-rays look inside the teeth and can find early-stage decay.
Dental Cleaning
Professional dental cleanings are a must for good oral health. The hygienist removes all plaque and tartar from the teeth, helping to prevent gum disease and tooth decay. They provide vital home care instruction to help you keep your teeth healthy at home between visits.
Dental Sealants
Sealants are a safe plastic resin that the hygienist paints onto the biting surface of the molars. The resin helps to fill in the molars' deep crevices, preventing food or plaque buildup that causes decay.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride is a natural substance that helps strengthen teeth and prevent decay. Fluoride treatments are administered at this office as an important component of pediatric dental treatment. The fluoride is applied to the teeth in a gel, foam, or varnish form.
Custom Oral Appliances
Our office can fabricate custom oral appliances that can protect your teeth and gums during sports, alleviate sleep apnea symptoms to provide an open airway while you sleep, or relieve stress on the temporomandibular joint caused by clenching or grinding of the teeth.
