PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY

IntraOral Camera | Digital X-rays | Snoring | Bad Breath

Our goal is to help every person avoid dental problems. Our patients take confidence in the fact that we make certain they benefit from thorough exams and other preventive steps. By taking advantage of preventive procedures, you will help avoid the possibility of larger, more uncomfortable and more expensive treatment.

Exams are the cornerstone of a healthy mouth. During your exam, the doctor will check for decay and cracked teeth. He will also evaluate your jaw joint and lymph nodes, and perform an oral cancer screening and periodontal exam. Any necessary xrays would also be prescribed and evaluated by the doctor. One of our highly trained hygienists will perform a periodontal evaluation to check the health of your gum tissue and supporting bone.

Preventive procedures include:

• Patient Education—We want to teach you the proper way to brush and floss so you can keep your teeth for a lifetime!

• Xrays—Xrays are the only way for the doctor to see decay between the teeth. They also help verify the health of the bone supporting your teeth.

• Cleanings—Routine cleanings by our Registered Dental Hygienists are a vital step in maintaining your dental health.

• Sealants—Placing sealants on teeth that have no fillings protects the tooth from decay. Often, even your toothbrush can’t reach into the grooves on your teeth.

• Fluoride—Applying concentrated fluoride at least once every 12 months is another important step in the fight against decay.

• Bad Breath Solutions—Oxyfresh and Breath RX products can help you eliminate bad breath and help improve your dental health.

• Snoring Appliances—Help you or a loved one stop snoring. You’ll all sleep better.
