Periodontics & Gum Disease
Treatment for gum disease at every stage — because healthy gums protect more than teeth.
Learn MorePreventative Care
Cleanings, examinations and X-rays that keep small problems from becoming large ones.
Ongoing Care
We would rather help you avoid dental problems than treat them. Consistent preventative care is the least expensive and least invasive dentistry there is.
A preventative visit includes
- Professional cleaning and removal of tartar
- Thorough examination for decay and early problems
- X-rays when they are needed for diagnosis
- Practical guidance on your at-home routine
Every Six Months, and Why It Matters
By cleaning away tartar and polishing your teeth roughly every six months, you meaningfully reduce your risk of cavities. A regular schedule of examinations, cleanings and X-rays is what allows us to catch problems while they are still small.
That schedule is often what stands between a simple filling and root canal therapy, an extraction, or more serious treatment.
Preventing Gum Disease Too
Preventative care doesn't only stop tooth decay — it also prevents gum disease. If gum disease is allowed to reach its advanced stages, it has been associated with heart disease, stroke, respiratory problems and pregnancy complications.
A consistent schedule of cleanings and examinations is an investment in your long-term health, not just your smile.
