General & Family Services We Offer:
Children’s Dentistry
Children’s dentistry, also known as pediatric dentistry, is a specialized field of dentistry focused on the oral health and dental care of infants, children, and adolescents. Pediatric dentists are trained to address the unique dental needs and concerns of young patients, promoting proper oral hygiene habits and providing preventive and therapeutic dental care in a child-friendly environment.
Dental Cleanings & Exams
Dental cleaning and examination, commonly known as a dental check-up, involve professional cleaning of teeth to remove plaque and tartar, as well as a thorough examination of oral health by a dentist. This routine preventive care helps maintain good oral hygiene, prevents dental issues, and allows for early detection and treatment of potential problems. Regular dental check-ups are essential for overall oral health and can contribute to a healthier smile.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars to prevent tooth decay. These sealants act as a barrier, helping to seal out plaque and bacteria from the pits and grooves of the teeth, reducing the risk of cavities in these vulnerable areas.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride treatment is a dental procedure in which a concentrated fluoride solution is applied to the teeth to strengthen enamel, prevent tooth decay, and reduce the risk of cavities. This treatment is commonly administered by dentists during regular check-ups and can also be found in some toothpaste and mouth rinses.
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extraction is a common dental procedure involving the removal of a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. Dentists typically recommend extraction for several reasons, including severe decay, advanced periodontal disease, irreparable damage due to trauma, or overcrowding that affects the alignment of surrounding teeth. The process begins with a thorough examination and, if necessary, X-rays to assess the tooth’s condition and its surrounding structures. Before the extraction, the dentist or oral surgeon administers local anesthesia to numb the area and minimize discomfort during the procedure.
