What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

General Dentistry includes twice a year check-ups of the teeth, gums and mouth, a thorough cleaning of all teeth, and the identification of any possible issues. X-Rays are also suggested once a year.

Preventative check-ups keep you ‘in the know’ about your dental health and are suggested for most patients twice a year. During your check-ups, our Dental Hygienists provide a thorough teeth cleaning and assist the Dentist in identifying any possible issues you may be experiencing. If X-Rays are suggested or needed, the Hygienist providing care will collect the digital X-Rays using our state-of-the-art technology, which emits much less radiation than traditional X-Ray machines. After the Dentist reviews the X-Rays and consults with the Hygienist, an oral cancer screening, mouth, and teeth check is completed by the Dentist. At this time, any needed consultation about your oral health will be discussed.

During your dental cleaning and check-up we also check for oral cancers, signs of abnormal wear on tooth enamel, gingivitis and gum disease, cavities or cracks in teeth, and changes in your oral health since the last visit. We also offer consultation about specialty services, oral health care techniques, and answer general or unique questions regarding all things dental – during cleanings and check-ups.
