Preventative Dentistry Includes:
DIAGNOSTIC SERVICES:
Much of our dental services are oriented towards the prevention of further disease. This is where our office
truly shines. We use a diagnostic laser which must be the greatest advance in dental diagnostics since the
x-ray. This incredible laser can harmlessly find very small cavities years before they would have been found
by any other means of cavity diagnosis. The diagnostic laser shines a harmless laser beam into the tooth.
If tooth decay is present, even in the smallest amounts, the laser will alert the doctor and provide an indication of how big the cavity is.
We believe in a conscientious program of routinely scheduled appointments for cleanings and examinations once
a patient has successfully completed his/her treatment.
Our preventative program includes cleanings, radiographs (as needed), placement of sealants for decay prevention,
treatment of periodontal (gum) disease, fluoride treatments for children and young adults as well as laser
diagnosis.
HYGIENE:
It is recommended that you have your teeth cleaned and examined twice a year. In our office for your
convenience you can schedule your bi-annual hygiene appointments for the whole family on the same date and time.
PERIODONTAL TREATMENT:
Bleeding gums indicate the beginning stages of Periodontal (Gum) Disease. This is often accompanied by discomfort
and bad breath. As the condition worsens, teeth loosen from the gum as they recede. Eventually, tooth loss
occurs. In many cases, gums can be restored to a healthy state and natural teeth can be saved. Your treatment will
depend upon the degree of disease present. Once your mouth has been soundly restored, we will help you maintain
healthy teeth and gums. Your hygiene appointments include extensive periodontal therapy to support your daily
cleaning regimen.
SEALANTS:
The sealant acts to decrease the likelihood of cavities occurring on the chewing surface of the tooth. The chewing
surface is the surface which is most susceptible to decay.
