Are you ready for our comprehensive general dental care?
Our general dentistry is more than just treating problems as they arise—it’s about building a partnership with you to maintain a healthy, beautiful smile for life. Refresh and revitalize your smile with the following general dental care services.
- Dental exams: Routine dental check-ups are vital for detecting and treating oral issues before they progress and become painful and costly. We advise our patients to visit us bi-annually, but if you risk decay or gum disease, we will notify you to see us 3-4 times. A typical dental exam lasts no more than 60 minutes, but the benefits last years. Dental check-ups also save you costly restorative treatments by preventing minor issues from advancing.
- Dental cleanings: Professional cleanings eliminate built-in plaque and tartar from your teeth and just beneath the gum line. Even if you brush and floss your teeth diligently, you must visit us every six months to clean inaccessible areas with your toothbrush.
- Dental X-rays: Dental imaging is vital in unearthing dental issues not visible to the naked eye. Through digital X-rays, we can detect interproximal cavities, bone loss, impacted teeth, cysts, and other hidden problems. Safety is our top priority. Our digital X-rays are safe, producing high-quality images with minimal radiation exposure.
- Tooth fillings: We treat cavities and minor tooth damage with composite fillings. The fillings are bonded to your tooth with a simple procedure and stay there for many years with proper care. Composite fillings are colored like your tooth to achieve aesthetically appealing results.
- Teeth whitening: Has your smile lost its shine to coffee, red wine, or smoking? We can revitalize your dull, yellow, or stained smile with professional teeth whitening. Our office uses Zoom teeth whitening to remove even the toughest tooth stains.
- Oral cancer screenings: Do you know over 54,000 Americans will be diagnosed with oral cancer this year, and tragically, this cancer claims over 12,000 lives yearly? The thought of mouth cancer is scary, but routine screenings are essential to early detection and successful treatment. Oral cancer exams in our office are quick and painless, so you have nothing to worry about. Schedule your cancer screening today—the sooner we detect mouth cancer, the more effective your treatment will be.
