Dental Checkups & Cleanings

By checking for tooth decay, gum disease, cavities, and other common dental problems, our team can identify areas of concern and recommend treatment before more serious issues develop. We’ll also clean your teeth and gums to reduce the risk of bacterial buildup that leads to inflammation, infection, and stains.

Nightguards for Bruxism

A custom nightguard protects your smile from enamel erosion and jaw pain caused by teeth grinding and clenching while you sleep. This appliance acts as a barrier between your upper and lower rows of teeth, absorbing the pressure from bruxism.

Oral Cancer Screenings

With thousands of individuals losing their lives to oral cancer each year, early detection remains essential. This is why we closely examine your mouth, throat, and neck during your routine appointments. If we discover any abnormalities, we will recommend further testing from an outside physician.

Fluoride Treatment

We can apply this protective varnish to your teeth during a regular cleaning, giving your enamel the defense it needs to stay healthy between appointments. Fluoride is a natural mineral that is safe to use on smiles of all types and ages.
