Make Regular Visits With Us Part of Your Dental Care Routine

You know that you can count on care by an experienced and skilled group of dental professionals when you come to our practice. Come see us for a wide variety of services:

  • Dental Exams – Your dentist will carefully examine your mouth for signs of decay, gum infections, and changes in the alignment of your teeth. Our team uses digital X-rays to discover problems as soon as we can.
  • Dental Cleanings – Professional cleanings are the most effective way to remove plaque and tartar buildup along with harmful bacteria.
  • Periodontal Care – Gum disease is a leading cause of tooth loss, which is why it is best to treat periodontal problems as early as you are able. We’ll eliminate a gum infection with deep cleaning or other treatments.
  • Oral Cancer Screenings – Early detection is important for any oral health issue, and that’s especially true when it comes to oral cancer.
  • Custom Mouthguards – We design custom-fitted sports mouthguards for the athletes in your family. You can also protect your teeth from the effects of grinding with a night guard.
  • Fluoride Applications – An application of fluoride can make your teeth more resistant to harmful bacteria that cause decay.
  • Dental Sealants – This low-cost treatment greatly reduces your risk of cavities by creating a barrier between bad bacteria and your teeth.

If you have any anxiety about oral care, we’ll make you as comfortable as possible. With dental sedation and comfort options, you can relax while we care for you and your smile.

Common Questions About General Dentistry
What is general dentistry?

Several dental services fall under general dentistry. We offer dental exams and cleanings, gum disease treatment using scaling and root planing, and custom-fit mouthguards to protect your teeth. Routine general dentistry goes a long way toward keeping your smile bright and your oral health optimal.

What foods are healthy for my teeth?

Nutritious foods that benefit your overall health also help you maintain healthy teeth. Adding fresh fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and calcium-rich foods like cheese into your diet is a good start. Certain fruits and vegetables, with their high water and fiber content, function as a natural toothbrush and remove plaque from your teeth. Nuts make an excellent snack option as they contain minerals that strengthen tooth enamel, making it less vulnerable to cavities.

Can I prevent cavities?

Brushing with a toothpaste that contains fluoride at least two times a day is essential in preventing cavities, as is daily flossing. Limiting the amount of sugary or highly acidic foods in your diet is also helpful. If you’re unable to brush after meals, rinsing out your mouth with water is a good way to help wash away the food debris and bacteria that cause cavities. Ask your dental team about fluoride and sealants, two treatments that can make your teeth less cavity-prone.
