Regular Check-Ups
Regular dental check-ups are essential for maintaining good oral health. During a check-up, our dentist will thoroughly examine your teeth and gums for any signs of decay, gum disease, or other issues. X-rays to check for any underlying problems that may not be visible to the naked eye will also be taken.
By attending regular check-ups, we can catch any potential issues early on and prevent them from developing into more serious problems. This can save you time, money, and discomfort in the long run.
Teeth Cleanings
Early detection of dental issues such as tooth decay and gum disease is crucial for maintaining good oral health. Regular cleanings performed by our expert team can help keep your teeth and gums free from plaque buildup, which can lead to many dental problems.
During a cleaning, our hygienists will use special tools to remove any plaque or tartar that has accumulated on your teeth. They will also polish your teeth to remove surface stains and give you a brighter, healthier looking smile.
Sealants
Dental sealants are a thin, protective coating that is applied to the chewing surfaces of your back teeth. These molars and premolars are prone to cavities, as their grooves and pits can easily trap food particles and bacteria.
Sealants act as a barrier, protecting these vulnerable areas from decay-causing substances. They are typically recommended for children but can also be beneficial for adults who are prone to cavities
Oral Cancer Screenings
Oral cancer screenings are an important part of maintaining good oral health. During your regular dental checkups, our dentists will conduct a thorough examination of your mouth and throat to look for any signs of oral cancer.
Early detection is crucial for successful treatment of oral cancer, which is why we recommend regular screenings for all of our patients.
