General & Family Services we offer
Children’s Dentistry
Children’s dentistry, also known as pediatric dentistry, is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on the oral health and dental care of infants, children, and adolescents. Pediatric dentists are trained to address the unique needs and concerns of young patients, promoting proper oral hygiene, preventing dental issues, and providing early intervention and treatment for dental problems specific to children.
Dental Cleanings & Exams
Dental cleaning and examination, commonly known as a dental checkup, involve the removal of plaque and tartar from teeth through professional cleaning. This preventive procedure helps maintain oral health, prevent gum disease, and detect any potential dental issues. The examination includes a thorough assessment of the teeth, gums, and oral tissues, often accompanied by X-rays, to identify and address any dental concerns. Regular dental checkups are essential for maintaining good oral hygiene and preventing dental problems.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars to prevent cavities by shielding the teeth from bacteria and food particles that can lead to decay.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride treatment involves the application of fluoride to the teeth, typically in the form of a gel, foam, or varnish. This preventive dental measure helps strengthen tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay and reducing the risk of cavities. Fluoride treatments are often performed during dental check-ups and are particularly beneficial for individuals at higher risk of dental caries.
Tooth Extractions
Tooth extraction is a dental procedure in which a tooth is removed from its socket in the jawbone, typically due to issues such as severe decay, damage, infection, or overcrowding. Our dentists will then work with you to determine which type of replacement will be most suitable for your needs.
