We offer a full suite of general dental services to help you keep your smile healthy:
Whether you're here for a routine visit or a specific concern, we provide gentle, effective solutions that support your long-term health.
Preventive Dental Exams and Cleanings
Routine checkups are key to catching problems early. During your exam, we provide:
- Thorough tooth and gum evaluation: To assess for decay and stability.
- Digital X-rays: For deeper diagnostic insight.
- VELscope oral cancer screening: Using advanced light technology.
- Professional cleaning: Using ultrasonic tools to remove plaque and tartar.
- Polishing: To smooth the enamel and reduce future buildup.
We also guide you on brushing, flossing, and at-home hygiene for optimal care.
Custom Oral Appliances for Protection
We create personalized oral appliances to protect your teeth and joints, including:
- Athletic mouthguards: For sports safety.
- Nightguards: To reduce damage from grinding or clenching.
These guards help safeguard your bite, jaw alignment, and oral health.
Deep Cleaning and Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease can cause serious damage if left untreated. Our team offers:
- Scaling: To remove plaque below the gumline.
- Root planing: To smooth tooth roots and encourage gum reattachment.
These non-surgical treatments are essential for managing and reversing early-stage gum disease.
Root Canal Therapy, Tooth Extractions, and Fillings
If a tooth becomes infected or damaged beyond repair, we provide advanced care:
- Root canals: To remove infected pulp and seal the tooth.
- Extractions: When restoration isn’t possible, done gently and safely.
- Dental Crown and Fillings: Soon after the root canal is performed, we restore the tooth to protect it.
We’ll walk you through all treatment options and ensure your comfort every step of the way.
