Professional Teeth Cleanings (Prophylaxis)
Prevention is at the heart of our practice, and regular teeth cleanings are crucial to maintaining oral health. We recommend dental cleanings at least twice yearly to prevent diseases and other issues. Our team uses cutting-edge dental tools to ensure quick, comfortable care, removing plaque and polishing teeth. In some cases, an additional fluoride treatment may be suggested to strengthen the teeth further.
Nightguards For TMJ Pain
TMJ, or temporomandibular joint, can lead to pain and discomfort. Our custom-made night guards help correct TMJ problems and preserve healthy teeth. For those suffering from bite-related headaches, our dentists employ special orthotics and advanced treatments to address bite function problems. If you experience jaw pain caused by stress, continual clenching, or teeth grinding, you may have temporomandibular disorder (TMD), and our solutions can provide relief.
Desensitizing Treatments For Sensitive Teeth
Our team has a solution if you struggle with tooth sensitivity to hot and cold. After ruling out serious issues, our dentists apply a special paste designed to alleviate sensitivity for months. They may also recommend steps to prevent sensitivity between regular appointments.
Silver Diamine Treatment
Our preventive care extends to innovative treatments like silver diamine treatment, that helps halt the progress of tooth decay without the use of drills or injections. Silver diamine treatment is an efficient and non-invasive way to address cavities for young children or individuals who may feel apprehensive about traditional dental procedures.
