Dental exam and Cleanings

A dental exam is a checkup of your teeth and gums. A comprehensive dental exam will be performed by the dentist at your initial dental visit. The initial exam will involve a thorough inspection of your mouth, tongue and teeth. After that you will see a dental hygienist for a professional cleaning.

Fluoride treatment

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 treatment have been well known for over 50 years and are supported by many health and professional organizations.

Digital 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. Without x-rays, problem areas may go undetected.

Sealants

A sealant is a thin, plastic coating applied to the chewing surface of molars, premolars and any deep grooves (called pits and fissures) of teeth. More than 75% of dental decay begins in these deep grooves. Teeth with these conditions are hard to clean and are very susceptible to decay. A sealant protects the tooth by sealing deep grooves, creating a smooth, easy to clean surface.
