Preventive Dental Care
Preventive dental care includes regular checkups, professional-grade cleaning of your teeth, and in-depth examinations using dental x-rays to identify any problems concerning decay, gum disease, and any other possible issues. It also includes oral cancer screenings for early detection, in order to prevent and cure oropharyngeal cancer.Â
Family dentistry includes orthodontic treatments and procedures that enable you and your family members to acquire a great smile with perfectly aligned teeth. Orthodontic treatments are available for issues like teeth crowding, abnormal spacing, overbite, underbite, or crossbite.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are a viable solution for the replacement of missing teeth. The procedure is performed surgically by placing a medical device into the jawbone. Implants restore a patient’s ability to chew and renew smiles by improving appearance. It is a safe and permanent solution for tooth loss.Â
General dental care procedures, such as fillings and crowns, are a part of family dentistry. Fillings are the go-to solution for teeth eroded by cavities, but a tooth can only be filled to a certain extent. If a filling becomes too large that it compromises the integrity of the tooth, a more complex solution like an inlay, onlay, and or crown may be necessary where a filling is not enough.
Periodontal Therapy
Periodontal therapy is focused on the treatment of gum disease and the prevention of bone loss. First, the family dentist or hygienist will examine the tissues for any changes in the color of the gums and look for signs of bleeding, swelling, and recession. Also, a simple measurement of the gums is a procedure performed in order to properly diagnose each individual periodontal situation. If periodontal disease is diagnosed based on your examination using dental x-rays, the dentist or hygienist will perform a non-surgical periodontal therapy procedure to prevent the progression of gum disease and design a customized treatment plan.
Our family dentistry services are affordable and will ensure you and your family receive the best dental care possible to maintain your healthy smiles for a lifetime.
