Preventative Dental Care
Why is Preventative Dental Care Important?
Our experienced dental team offers a full range of preventative dental care services designed to keep your teeth looking healthy and bright. Our advanced procedures are designed to help you maintain good oral health, address current problems, prevent future issues, and identify any early concerns you may have. Oral disease is entirely preventable when responsible daily oral hygiene habits at home are combined with regular professional dental care. At each appointment, Dr. Denison and his hygienists will provide a regular cleaning accompanied by a thorough examination to detect the onset of any disease. It is our goal to help keep your smile healthy!
Scheduling a preventative dental care exam is a simple step toward maintaining your oral health. Regular exams help detect issues like cavities or gum disease before they become serious, saving you time and discomfort later. To schedule, just call our office or book online at your convenience. We recommend having an exam every six months to ensure your teeth and gums stay in top shape. Don’t wait until you feel pain—routine checkups are key to keeping your smile bright and healthy!
Preventative dental care not only saves you from discomfort and costly procedures in the future but also improves your overall health. Conditions like gum disease and tooth decay can lead to more serious health issues if left untreated, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Regular preventative dental care visits allow us to catch issues early, providing you with more treatment options and a higher likelihood of successful outcomes. By committing to preventative dental care, you’re investing in a healthier, more confident future. Let us partner with you in achieving a lifetime of strong, vibrant smiles.
Checkups & Cleanings
A vital component to preventative dental care is routine cleanings and checkups. We recommend that you come visit us twice a year in addition to regular brushing and flossing at home to maintain your best oral health.
Composite Fillings
Dr. Denison uses composite resin fillings as they are durable and resistant to fracture from the stresses of chewing. Composite fillings offer aesthetic appeal and are a good choice for patients who prefer their fillings to look more natural.
Dental
Sealants
Dental sealants are effective in preventing decay on the biting surfaces of your chewing teeth. Sealants protect the depressions and grooves of your teeth from food particles and plaque that brushing and flossing can’t reach. Sealants are ideal for children and teens.
Periodontal Services
Gum disease is caused by a buildup of plaque (a sticky form of bacteria that forms on the teeth). If the plaque is not removed, it will continue to build up and create toxins that can damage the gums and cause gingivitis or bleeding gums.
Sports
Dentistry
Dental injuries are the most common type of oral facial injuries sustained during participation in sports. Dr. Denison provides Under Armour Performance Mouthwear™. Dr. Denison recommends all athletes wear protective mouthguards.
Oral Cancer Screening
Dr. Denison recommends that all adult dental patients have a cancer screening test performed once a year. Diagnosing diseases in the mouth as early as possible is very important. The earlier a disease is diagnosed, the more successful treatment will be.
Sleep Apnea
Snoring and breathing pauses during sleep are symptoms of a very serious condition called sleep apnea. Customized night guards work very well to treat sleep apnea problems and are specifically designed to provide you with the most comfortable fit for your mouth.
