Services
Our goal is always to help our patients maintain their oral health and to care for and protect their natural teeth.
Comprehensive examinations of the mouth, teeth, surrounding gum tissues, and supporting bone structures help with early detection and treatment of problematic conditions.
Maintaining oral health includes good home care and regular visits to our office for preventive care, such as oral examinations, x-rays, and cleanings.
Even with excellent care, teeth and gums can be susceptible to disease, infection, cavities, cracks, or other forms of damage.

During a New Patien Exam, we are evaluating your head, neck, face, gums, tissues, tongue, airway, and teeth.
The dental examination is a diagnostic evaluation of a patient's overall oral health and hygiene and involves looking and feeling around the cheeks, gums, tongue, throat, under the jaw, and the sides of the neck, as well as the teeth.

Dental x-rays are valuable diagnostic tools that allow us to safely and effectively evaluate the health of the jaw bones, tooth roots, and contact areas where the teeth touch each other--all areas we cannot observe directly with our eyes.
We search for hidden dental diseases such as cavities, gum and bone disease, abscesses, cysts, and tumors.
X-rays are also used to view the progress of eruption of permanent teeth in children, for orthodontic and implant treatment planning, and for many other dental procedures.

We prescribe the appropriate type and frequency of hygiene therapy based on your individualized needs, considering your gum and bone health, risk for cavities, medical history, dry mouth, and more.
During a dental cleaning (oral prophylaxis), we use specialized instruments to remove biofilm, plaque, calculus ("tarter"), food debris, and harmful bacteria from your teeth.
This helps to promote healthy gums, bone, and teeth, reducing local and systemic inflammation and improving overall health.
Scaling and root planing is a non-surgical procedure used to treat gum disease.

The back teeth (molars and bicuspids) have pits and grooves that are prone to decay.
Sealants are a proven method to help protect these teeth and prevent decay.
Applying sealants is a simple procedure and is strongly recommended for children as they develop their adult teeth, helping to keep these teeth healthy for the rest of their lives.
We also recommend sealants for adults who have teeth that would benefit from this added protection.
