Preventive Dentistry
Our top priority is helping you keep a healthy smile, and the best way to do that is a lifetime of preventive care.
Cleanings and periodontal treatment
Regular visits are the best way to keep your smile healthy for a lifetime. Our hygienists remove the plaque and bacteria that build up between visits. After a periodontal assessment and a check for signs of gum disease, our doctors may recommend cleanings more than twice a year or other treatment options.
Digital X-rays
We use digital X-rays to find problems as early as possible. They use approximately one-sixth the radiation of traditional film-based X-rays, and timely X-rays let us treat cavities conservatively, before they become more costly and involved.
Sealants
Sealants fill the grooves of the back molars to keep out the plaque and bacteria that cause decay. We recommend them on children's 6- and 12-year molars, through the years when teeth are more susceptible to decay.
Splint therapy
Teeth that don't fit together ideally can cause unnecessary wear, TMJ problems, migraine headaches, and biting and cold sensitivity. Splint therapy can stop the damage and can significantly improve or eliminate the symptoms.
New patients of any age are welcome.
