Dental Checkups
& Teeth Cleanings
Brushing and flossing are both extremely important for preventing cavities and gum disease. Unfortunately, it’s likely that you’re overlooking some parts of your mouth without realizing it, and a lot of dental problems can be hard to catch in the earliest stages without a professional’s help. During your biannual appointments, we’ll use our state-of-the-art dental technology to examine your smile from every angle, and we’ll cleanse the teeth and gums of plaque and tartar.
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride encourages strong, healthy enamel, and it even helps fight against the development of cavities. It can be found in tap water, several different foods, and oral hygiene products, but the sad fact is that a lot of people aren’t getting as much protection from fluoride as they could. As such, fluoride treatments are often performed as a supplement during preventive checkups. This treatment is for patients of all ages, although younger children with still-developing teeth particularly stand to benefit.
Oral Cancer Screenings
It’s entirely possible to treat mouth cancer, but your prospects of survival will look significantly better if the disease is caught and treated as early as possible. We perform oral cancer screenings as part of our regular checkup procedures. We might find an unusual lump, a white or red patch, or another possible symptom of oral cancer that could warrant further examination. We’ll go over your next steps in detail if we find anything to be concerned about.
