- Dental ExaminationRegular dental checkups, dental hygiene cleanings and periodontal examinations are important for maintaining your health and the health of your smile. You don't have to lose teeth to periodontal disease, and by practicing good oral hygiene at home, you can significantly reduce your chances of ever getting gum disease. Remember to brush regularly, clean between your teeth, eat a balanced diet, and schedule regular dental hygiene visits to help keep your smile healthy.

- Teeth CleaningThe American Dental Association recommends a visit to your dentist every six months for regular checkups and routine teeth cleanings to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
- Fluoride TreatmentA fluoride treatment in your dentist's office takes just a few minutes. After the treatment, patients may be asked not to rinse, eat, or drink for at least 30 minutes in order to allow the teeth to absorb the fluoride. Depending on your oral health or your doctor's recommendation, it may be advised to have a fluoride treatment every three, six, or 12 months. Your doctor may also prescribe an at-home fluoride product such as a mouthwash, gel, or antibacterial rinse.
- Dental SealantsYour child should visit the dentist every six months for regular dental cleanings and checkups. We recommend fluoride treatments twice a year along with cleanings to keep teeth their strongest. Tooth sealants are also recommended because they "seal" the deep grooves in your child's teeth, preventing decay from forming in these hard-to-reach areas. Sealants last for several years, but will be monitored at your child's regular checkups.
- Fillings
- Resin CompositeMost common dental filling materials include ceramic and resin compounds that mimic the appearance of natural teeth. These compounds, often called composite resins, can be used throughout the mouth and provide an esthetic, strong, and functional solution to restoring tooth decay or fractures.
- VeneersOpalescence Take Home Whitening Gels are only available through your dentist. Before using the Opalescence Tooth Whitening System, your dentist will advise you of any fillings, crowns, or veneers that will not whiten and what options you have to replace them once whitening is complete. Additionally, we ensure a safe whitening experience by thoroughly checking that your teeth are disease-free prior to begining the process.
- CrownsTension, stress, and anxiety experienced during the daytime can carry over to an individual’s sleep, and lead the person to grind his or her teeth together or clench the teeth unknowingly. Regardless of the cause, however, frequent clenching and grinding wears down the chewing surfaces of the teeth, reduces tooth enamel, and can result in a cracked or chipped tooth, crown, or filling.
- BridgesA family-friendly dental office, we offer exams and cleanings, fillings, and periodontal care, as well as nitrous oxide (laughing gas), for worry-free visits. We also provide natural-looking bridges and crowns to restore function.

- Dental ImplantsThere are times when it is necessary to remove a tooth. Sometimes a baby tooth has misshapen or long roots that prevent it from falling out as it should, and the tooth must be removed to make way for the permanent tooth to erupt. At other times, a tooth may be deteriorated to a point that it puts the surrounding teeth and jaw at risk, so your doctor may recommend removal and replacement with a bridge or implant. Infection, orthodontic correction, or problems with a wisdom tooth can also require removal of a tooth.
