Why Preventive Dentistry Matters
Preventive care is the foundation of everything we do. By catching issues early — or stopping them before they start — we can help you:
- Avoid cavities and gum disease
- Keep your natural teeth strong and healthy
- Detect oral cancer and other conditions early
- Save time and money on future treatment
- Maintain confidence in your smile year after year
Think of preventive dentistry as an investment in your future health and happiness.
Our Preventive Services
Dental Cleanings & Exams
Routine checkups every six months are key to long-term oral health. Our hygienists provide thorough, gentle cleanings while Dr. Nick or Dr. Laura perform a full exam to check for cavities, gum disease, and other concerns.
Digital X-Rays & Photos
With modern digital imaging, we can detect problems early and explain them clearly with images you can see. It’s safer, faster, and more precise.
Periodontal Care
Healthy gums are just as important as healthy teeth. Our team monitors your gum health at every visit, offering personalized care to prevent or treat periodontal disease.
Oral Cancer Screenings
We use advanced technology (OralID/VelScope) for early detection of oral cancer. It’s quick, painless, and part of every comprehensive exam.
Fluoride Treatments & Sealants
For children, teens, and adults prone to cavities, we offer fluoride applications and protective sealants to strengthen enamel and shield against decay.
Custom Mouthguards & Nightguards
- Sports Guards: Protect your child’s teeth on the field or court.
- Nightguards: Stop grinding and clenching from damaging your smile.
- Sleep Appliances: For snoring or mild sleep apnea, we create custom devices in collaboration with physicians.
