Routine cleanings, films, and exams are an important part of maintaining
not only your dental health but also your overall systemic health. As you
have probably heard, more and more research is linking oral health with systemic
conditions. Studies have already made connections to Diabetes, Heart
Disease, and Pregnancy as well as many others.
In an effort to maintain your health, we recommend cleanings and exams twice a
year for most patients. Depending on your specific oral condition, we will
take films to determine treatment needs, progress, etc. It is at these
times we are able to detect potential problems and be proactive towards
addressing them before they become bigger issues later.
Preventive Treatments Include:
Taking X-rays for diagnostic purposes
Patient education utilizing intra-oral cameras
Comprehensive exams and hygiene visits
Periodontal Disease Treament
Nightguards for grinding and clenching
Atheletic Guard for prevention of sports injuries
