Teeth Cleaning & Oral Exams
Gentle, Thorough Visits
The American Dental Association recommends that you come in for an oral exam and cleaning every six months. Coming to see your dentist regularly helps ensure that your mouth looks and feels its best. It also allows us to identify oral health issues early and provide you with the care you need to resolve them. An oral cancer screening is part of every oral exam at our office. Regular oral cancer screenings will give you peace of mind and ensure that any potential issues are found early. Schedule your next visit with us today to make sure your smile stays bright and healthy.
Fluoride Treatments
Reverse Minor Decay
Fluoride has the unique ability to remineralize slightly decayed teeth by attracting minerals like calcium and phosphate to your enamel. After treatment, your teeth will absorb these minerals, which will help strengthen the outer layers of your teeth and help prevent cavities. Fluoride can even help reverse “soft spots” of weakened enamel, which are the first stage of tooth decay.
Dental Sealants
Prevent Future Damage
Dental sealants consist of a transparent, strong dental resin which is applied to your back teeth after a cleaning. This resin is hardened with a UV light, and turned into a durable barrier that will cover and protect your teeth. This sealant creates an impenetrable barrier against oral bacteria and acid, effectively preventing tooth decay. When properly applied, sealants can protect against cavities for up to 10 years.
