FLOSS LIKE A BOSS 🦷

Flossing removes plaque and food particles from between the teeth & along the gum line where brushing alone cannot reach. Plaque is a sticky film that contains bacteria that can cause cavities and gum disease.

Tartar also known as dental calculus, is a hard buildup of plaque that forms on your teeth. It can appear above and below your gum line. This is the result of plaque being missed while brushing & flossing.

BENEFITS OF FLOSSING 🦷

- reduces plaque
- reduces bad breathe
- reduces risk of cavities
- reduces risk of gum disease

DENTAL X-RAYS 🦷

Dental x-rays help diagnose and treat dental problems by providing images of the teeth, bones, and soft tissues in the mouth. X-rays can show problems that are difficult to see with the naked eye.

How often we take x-rays depends on your oral health, age and risk factors. Most people with healthy teeth & gums should have dental x-rays taken once every 6-18 months.

Dental X-rays are considered safe!

Root canal treatment is a dental procedure to remove inflamed or infected pulp on the inside of the tooth which is then carefully cleaned and disinfected. The tooth is then filled and sealed, followed by a permanent filling or crown for strength.

Root canal treatment is designed to eliminate bacteria from the infected root canal, prevent reinfection of the tooth and to save the natural tooth.

We have our Endodontist in twice a month! Please call the office for more information.

Dental impressions are imprints of your teeth, gums and surrounding oral structures!

They are used to create diagnostic models of your mouth. With these impressions we are able to fabricate night guards, whitening trays, retainers, sports guards, crowns, bridges, dentures and more!

Dental impressions are an essential aspect of dentistry. While getting dental impressions may be slightly inconvenient or uncomfortable, the benefit of a beautiful, healthy smile is worth it!

What is a dental Implant?

A implant is a structure that replaces a missing tooth. A screw like structure is placed by the dentist into the jaw bone and it acts as a artificial tooth, followed by a crown.

The crown is a custom fit and will match the color of their teeth. Crowns look, feel, and function like natural teeth.

🦷 Advantages to implants: 🦷

*Natural looking and comfortable
*Have a higher success rate
*Improves chewing function
*Leads to a lower risk of cavities developing in nearby teeth
*Do not need to be taken out and cleaned every night

However, dental implants are not suitable for everyone. The implant must bond with the jawbone, so a person’s bones must be healthy before they can undergo implant surgery!

See if you're a candidate for dental implants today! 🦷

🦷 The goal of the comprehensive exam (COE) is for your dentist to establish a baseline for your oral health. During this assessment your dentist will conduct a Oral cancer screening, gum disease evaluation & TMJ examination. At this time, your doctor will discuss any underlying health problems, and perform a thorough assessment of each of your teeth 🦷

We recommend this exam be done once every 3 years along with a full mouth series of x-rays!
