Cleaning & Prevention
Preventative Dentistry
The foundation for a beautiful smile is a set of beautiful, healthy gums. This is why your dental exams and cleanings are so important. Regular visits to our office will ensure that your teeth and gums will remain strong and healthy, enabling you to keep your beautiful smile for a lifetime.
Dental Exams and Teeth Cleaning
A regularly-scheduled visit to our office will include a a couple of radiographs (x-rays) and complete exam by your dentist. She will check for periodontal disease, decay, oral cancer, and existing dental work such as crowns or fillings. A routine dental cleaning is key to prevent the buildup of plaque and tarter to help protect against periodontal disease and cavities. Our cleanings are thorough yet gentle.
Digital Dental Radiographs
X-rays are one of the most important tools dentist use to determine your oral health and create a plan of treatment. Images taken by x-rays reveal more than a regular clinical exam possibly could, showing decay, bone loss, even tumors. Digital x-rays offer the added benefit of very low exposure - up to 90 percent less than conventional x-rays - and the ability to see images right away.
