PREVENTIVE DENTAL PROCEDURES
-
Dental Exams
Purpose: Regular dental exams help detect early signs of cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues.
Procedure: During your exam, our dentist will thoroughly assess your teeth and gums, checking for any signs of problems and discussing any concerns you may have.
-
X-Rays
Purpose: X-rays provide a detailed look at the underlying structures of your teeth and jaw, helping us diagnose issues that aren’t visible to the eye.
Procedure: Using advanced digital X-ray technology, we capture clear images to assess bone health, tooth positioning, and detect hidden decay or infections.
-
Hygiene Cleanings
Purpose: Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup to prevent cavities and gum disease.
Procedure: Our hygienist will use specialized tools to clean your teeth, polish surfaces, and provide tips for maintaining oral hygiene between visits.
-
Fluoride Treatment
Purpose: Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and helps lower risk of getting future cavities, especially beneficial for children and patients prone to decay.
Procedure: We apply a concentrated fluoride varnish to the teeth, providing an extra layer of protection against decay.
-
Dental Sealants
Purpose: Sealants are protective coatings applied to the deep pits and fissures to prevent decay, and can be applied to people of all ages
Procedure: After cleaning the teeth, we apply a thin layer of sealant to the deep grooves/pits & fissure, sealing out food particles and bacteria for added protection.
-
Oral Cancer Exam
Purpose: Early detection of oral cancer can save lives. We check for any unusual lumps, sores, or changes in the tissue of your mouth and throat.
Procedure: During the screening, our dentist carefully examines your oral tissues, checking for any signs of abnormalities. If needed, we can refer you for further testing.
