Dental Checkups & Teeth Cleanings
At-home care is the foundation for long-term oral health, but so are routine checkups and cleanings. Both play a major role in keeping your smile free of plaque and tartar and making sure no cavities or infections are present. We recommend that you complete these visits at least once every six months. During your exam, your dentist will provide recommendations on improving your at-home hygiene and discuss treatments they believe will resolve any issues you might have.
Children’s Dentistry
Dentistry is important at every age, but children require special attention when it comes to their smiles because they are generally at a higher risk of dental disease. We always make sure to use a gentle touch and remain patient during their visits. After all, making a positive first impression is crucial to making future visits easier! Whether your child needs a cleaning, fluoride treatment, dental sealants, or pulp therapy, we have them covered.
Fluoride Treatment
Following your dental cleaning, our team makes sure to perform a quick fluoride treatment to strengthen your enamel and protect your smile from oral bacteria. Fluoride is found in the foods you eat and your public drinking water, but it’s also found in the oral care products you use daily. Without it, your enamel would be at a much higher risk of developing decay. Fluoride treatment is typically for kids, but adults can benefit just as much from it as well!
Dental Sealants
While we do everything we can to help children avoid cavities and tooth decay, sometimes, they can still develop despite everyone’s best efforts. To better prevent this, we can apply clear plastic sealants to your child’s most vulnerable teeth (which tend to be the ones towards the back). Once in place, you can expect these sealants to provide protection for up to 10 years.
Nightguards for Bruxism
Anyone can suffer from teeth grinding and clenching, which are the most notable characteristics of bruxism. Unfortunately, many people don’t realize that they have bruxism until they get a dental exam and a dentist tells them. Thanks to our digital impression system, we can easily capture the exact shape of your mouth and details of your smile to create a custom-made nightguard. This oral appliance will ensure that your tooth enamel remains protected while you sleep, which is when clenching and grinding primarily occur.
