Dental Checkups & Teeth Cleanings

When you come in for an examination, we’ll check your teeth, gums, and other oral structures for signs of damage, disease, or infection. If a problem is found, we’ll let you know which treatments are available and schedule any follow-up appointments as needed. During our examination, we may find areas where plaque or tartar has built up; our team can remove these substances before they have a chance to cause cavities and other issues.

 

Fluoride Treatments

In today’s world, fluoride plays an important role in oral health. Thanks to its ability to make enamel more resistant to decay, it is routinely added to toothpaste and drinking water. If we find that your teeth are unusually susceptible to cavities, we may suggest strengthening them with a professional fluoride treatment. All we have to do is apply a fluoride gel or varnish to your teeth; once it has been absorbed by the enamel, it can help provide additional protection until your next visit.
