Our dental team takes a proactive and conservative approach to dentistry. By focusing on minimally invasive solutions and catching problems as early as possible, you can avoid complex and costly treatment in the future.  When you come in for your regular check-ups, you can expect a personalized experience tailored to your unique oral health needs. You’ll benefit from our technology, including digital X-rays and intraoral cameras. This gives us an closer look at the condition of your teeth and gums while exposing you to less radiation.

You’ll benefit from preventive services, such as:

  • Cleanings and Exams – Your dental checkup includes a comprehensive exam. Our team will look for any signs of cavities, gum disease, or oral cancer. You’ll also receive a thorough cleaning that removes the plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth. We may also take low-radiation digital X-rays and take time to discuss your oral health history.
  • Bad Breath Solutions – Chronic bad breath can indicate underlying dental health issues. Depending on the root cause, your dentist can suggest products to alleviate the condition. You may also need gum disease treatment or restorative care to treat an infection.
  • Dry Mouth Treatment – Not producing a sufficient amount of saliva increases your risk for oral health issues. If you have persistent dry mouth, your dentist can recommend mouth rinses. Using them regularly can give you much-needed relief.
  • Gum Disease Treatment – If you show signs of gum disease, your dentist will create a customized treatment plan to restore your smile. This will include a deep cleaning procedure called scaling and root planing. He may follow up with an antibacterial rinse to prevent further infections.
  • Night Guards – If you struggle with teeth grinding or clenching, especially at night, you can get a custom night guard. This oral appliance will act like a cushion for your teeth and prevent further damage. It’s especially necessary for those who have had major restorative procedures completed, since grinding can damage fillings, crowns, and veneers.

Common Questions About General and Preventive Dentistry
What is general and preventive dentistry?

Daily oral hygiene is essential to keeping your mouth clean and healthy. But as important as brushing and flossing are, they aren’t enough on their own to protect your teeth and gums. General and preventive dentistry covers a wide range of treatments designed to help you prevent and detect dental problems, so you can keep your oral health on track.

What does dry mouth mean?

Chronic dry mouth can indicate several things. Dry mouth can be caused by a simple lack of saliva production, certain diseases such as diabetes, or taking certain medications. Once we have determined the cause of your dry mouth, we can advise you on steps to take to alleviate the problem.

What are gum disease symptoms?

One symptom that many people notice is gums that bleed when brushing. Other symptoms include gums that look swollen and/or bright red, gums that feel tender, and bad breath that won’t go away. It’s important to seek attention right away when you notice these symptoms. As with many dental problems, it is easier and less expensive to treat gum disease in its early stages.
