Preventive Dentistry

Exams

We begin with a thorough examination of your teeth, mouth, and gums. This includes taking x-rays and completing a head and neck exam. A treatment plan will be made that meets your needs if any problems are found.

Cleanings

Depending on the condition of the tissues surrounding your teeth, a prophylactic cleaning or scaling and root planing (deep cleaning) will be recommended to remove the plaque and tarter that builds up on your teeth.

Fluoride

Fluoride is especially important in children, but it is recommended for people of all ages. The key component of fluoride is to help strengthen and protect your teeth from decay.

Night Guard

Clenching or grinding your teeth at night can cause wear and tear on the surfaces of your teeth. Besides waking up with a sore jaw or fatigue, a custom fit night guard can be made to absorb impact to protect your teeth..
