Everyone’s different when they come in. Some people haven’t seen a dentist in a decade. Some people, you know, they’re just looking for a new dentist, whether their dentist retired, closed shop, whatever the reasons are. We do a lot of data gathering here, and the reason for that is to make sure we have all the information. So whatever treatment we do, you know, we want it to last a long time. Dentistry is not cheap. It’s a lot of money. And if someone’s going to invest the money into that kind of, you know, work, we want to make sure it’s going to last for the long haul. That’s the reason we’re so thorough on the front end. So hopefully, you know, it pays off on the back end. If you haven’t seen a dentist in a long time, we’re more than happy to bring you in, get all of our diagnostic information and, you know, tailor a treatment plan to help you move forward and get your oral health going in the right directions.
General Dental Care Is Your Key to a Beautiful Smile
Since general dental treatment is so important, we offer a variety of services that fall under that category. Your dentist will never recommend treatments that you don’t need. Instead, our team will advise you on the best way to keep your smile beautiful. Our services include:
- Dental Cleanings and Exams – At your six-month visits, your dental hygienist will thoroughly clean and polish your teeth to remove plaque and tartar. Then your dentist will give you a complete dental exam.
- Gum Disease Treatment – If your dentist finds evidence of gum disease, we’ll use a deep cleaning technique to remove infection from around and under your gumline.
- Dry Mouth Treatment – Your mouth needs adequate saliva to wash away debris from your teeth. Your dentist will offer advice and recommend specialty products to help you manage this condition.
- Halitosis (Bad Breath) Treatment – Bad breath can be embarrassing, plus it can often be a symptom of an underlying problem such as gum disease. Our team will find out what’s causing your bad breath and treat it accordingly.
- Athletic Mouthguards – Athletes who wear mouth protection are much less likely to suffer dental damage. A professionally-made mouthguard fits better and offers better protection than one bought off the shelf.
- Oral Cancer Screenings – Our team will examine your mouth for early signs of this disease, so you can get treatment as soon as possible.
