Initial Assessment/ Dental Hygiene Assessments
A complete examination, including x-rays, if necessary, will be done initially to assess a new patient's periodontal condition. All concerns are addressed and data is collected.
Scaling/Root Planing
This involves the removal of plaque and calculus (hard and soft bacterial deposits) above and below the gum line. This is essential for maintaining healthy teeth and gums.
Polishing
This procedure features the removal of extrinsic stains such as those caused by coffee and smoking. Polishing can also be done any time between cleanings for your teeth to look their best.
Fluoride
We offer fluoride treatment to strengthen and remineralize tooth enamel, mainly to prevent or stop tooth decay and to support the remineralization process.
Desensitizing
Extremely sensitive teeth can be treated by applying a desensitizing liquid or varnish which blocks exposed dentin and helps to reduce pain and sensitivity.
Sealants
To prevent bacteria from entering pits and fissures on the chewing surfaces of teeth, we flow sealants into these areas and harden them with high-intensity blue light.
Whitening Treatments
Achieve a whiter, brighter, sparkling smile that will make you look younger and more radiant! For your convenience, we offer take-home and in-office treatments. Ask for detailed information and prices about these procedures.
Irrigation
We have different therapeutic solutions to flush out deep pockets around the teeth to reduce bacteria and promote healing.
Deep Cleaning and Gum Therapy
We offer deep cleaning for your oral hygiene, as well as gum therapy for sensitive gums.
