Comprehensive Exams Comprehensive Exams

You can think of a comprehensive dental exam as the heart and soul of your oral health care. Everything stems from this exam – once you have gone through such a thorough exam in our office, we’ll be able to put together a detailed plan for future treatments.

There are a number of things we are looking for in a dental exam. Those things include any signs of cavities, the overall health of your teeth and gums, bite alignment, and more. Periodic exams will catch any issues that may develop along the way, before they become a more expensive and more extensive to address.

Oral Cancer Screenings Oral Cancer Screenings

The importance of oral cancer screenings is obvious. We want to make sure all of our patients remain healthy over the years, so we do routine screenings as part of our normal process.

Anything that we find that is out of the ordinary, such as lumps or sores, will be cause for a closer look. Fortunately, most of the time, these things turn out to be nothing to worry about, but it’s always best to error on the side of caution to avoid more serious issues later on.

Dental Cleanings Dental Cleanings

If you do a good job keeping up with your brushing and flossing at home, great job! You are already taking a huge step towards maintaining your optimum oral health. However, for as important as brushing and flossing are, they can’t do it all.

This is where we bring dental cleanings into the mix as an addition to your at-home hygiene routine. Professional cleanings will remove plaque, tartar, and stains that brushing and flossing can’t fully eliminate. These deeper cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath while allowing our team to detect early signs of oral health issues.

Periodontal Therapy Periodontal Therapy

If you have signs of gum disease, even early stages, while they may be relatively minor, you’ll want to have them addressed right away. Signs may be swollen or receding gums, or blood when brushing.

Periodontal therapy can include a range of treatments, including scaling and root planing. Once the initial treatments are completed and the problem is brought under control, ongoing maintenance may be needed to prevent any recurring issues.

Mouthguards Mouthguards

Mouthguards can serve many different purposes to maintain a proper bite, but they are only going to be effective if they fit perfectly. Rather than buying over the counter boil and bite guards, it’s far better to opt for a custom-fitted version that will be specific to your mouth and as comfortable as possible.

If you have been struggling with teeth grinding at night, wearing a mouthguard could be a solution that will protect your teeth and hopefully break that habit gradually. Custom mouthguards are also an excellent choice for athletes in certain sports who may be at risk of a dental injury.
