Plaque is a sticky, transparent layer of bacteria and when it's not removed in a timely manner, it can form a hardened bond on your teeth that can't be eliminated with a regular toothbrush.
This is called calculus, commonly referred to as tartar.
When plaque and tartar build up, you're more susceptible to infection, which is why we recommend a regular cleaning, or prophylaxis, two tothree times a year.
Since regular cleanings are a preventative procedure, they're covered by insurance carriers.
Our cleanings will effectively remove the stains, soft plaque and tartar that have accumulated since the last time we saw you.

Oral cancer is a pathologic process which begins with an asymptomatic stage during which the usual cancer signs may not be readily noticeable.
This makes the oral cancer examinations performed by the dentist critically important.
Oral cancers can be of varied histologic types such as teratoma, adenocarcinoma and melanoma.
The most common type of oral cancer is the malignant squamous cell carcinoma.

Digital radiography (digital X-ray) is the latest technology used to take dental X-rays.
This technique uses an electronic sensor (instead of X-ray film) that captures and stores the digital image on a computer.
Digital X-rays reduce radiation 80-90% compared to the already low exposure of traditional dental X-rays.
Dental X-rays are essential, preventative, diagnostic tools that provide valuable information not visible during a regular dental exam.
Dentists and dental hygienists use this information to safely and accurately detect hidden dental abnormalities and complete an accurate treatment plan.

Fluoride is the most effective agent available to help prevent tooth decay.
It is a mineral that is naturally present in varying amounts in almost all foods and water supplies.
The benefits of fluoride have been well known for over 50 years and are supported by many health and professional organizations.
Topical fluoride strengthens the teeth once they have erupted by seeping into the outer surface of the tooth enamel, making the teeth more resistant to decay.
We gain topical fluoride by using fluoride containing dental products such as toothpaste, mouth rinses, and gels.
