Family dentistry encompasses care for all generations. Understanding your family’s unique medical and dental history allows us to meet your needs most effectively. Oral health evolves with age, from childhood, adolescence, and adulthood, to senior years. Family dentistry can include professional cleaning and examination, education, checkups, extractions, root canal therapy, fillings, and establishment of a lifelong, healthy oral hygiene routine.
Cosmetic dental procedures are typically those that address and enhance the appearance of your smile. Treatments may include teeth whitening for a brighter smile, porcelain veneers, which can correct imperfections and symmetry, Invisalign clear alignment system, or Six Month Smiles. Restorative dentistry refers to procedures that restore the function of your teeth, such as dental implants, crowns, bridges, and dentures. With today’s advanced dental treatments, however, restorative dentistry also improves the aesthetics of your smile.
Gum disease, also called periodontal disease, is caused by the bacteria that exist in plaque. Maintaining a consistent and effective daily oral hygiene routine, such as brushing and flossing, will keep plaque from growing. Scheduling annual or biannual visits to the dentist for professional cleaning and examination will also help to detect any potential problems and address them. Smoking or tobacco use is a leading risk factor for gum disease.
