Checkups & Prevention
Dental Exams & Cleanings
An exam looks at the health of your whole mouth. A professional cleaning removes deposits from tooth surfaces. Together, they help your dental team understand what is healthy, what needs attention, and how to plan your care.
Checkups & Prevention
Dental X-rays
Dental X-rays provide information about areas your dentist cannot see directly. The type of image depends on the question being investigated, such as decay between teeth, a tooth root, or the bone supporting your smile.
Checkups & Prevention
Oral Cancer Screenings
An oral cancer screening is an examination for unusual changes in the mouth and nearby tissues. It involves looking and feeling, discussing symptoms, and deciding whether an area needs review or further investigation.
Checkups & Prevention
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride supports the enamel repair process and helps teeth resist decay. A professional application places fluoride on the tooth surface when your dental team determines that additional protection could be useful for your individual risk.
Checkups & Prevention
Dental Sealants
Sealants protect the small grooves on the chewing surfaces of back teeth. A thin coating flows into these areas and hardens, creating a barrier where food and bacteria can otherwise collect.
Fillings, Crowns & Tooth Replacement
Tooth-Colored Fillings
A tooth-colored filling restores a damaged area using a material selected to blend with your tooth. Composite resin is placed and shaped directly, helping rebuild a surface while preserving the tooth structure that can remain.
Fillings, Crowns & Tooth Replacement
Dental Crowns
A dental crown covers the visible part of a tooth when it needs more support than a smaller repair can provide. It is shaped to fit the prepared tooth and work with the rest of your bite.
Fillings, Crowns & Tooth Replacement
Inlays & Onlays
Inlays and onlays are custom restorations made to repair part of a tooth. An inlay fits within the chewing surface; an onlay extends over one or more cusps when those raised areas need protection or replacement.
Fillings, Crowns & Tooth Replacement
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge replaces a missing tooth or teeth using support on either side or another planned support arrangement. This guide shows a traditional tooth-supported bridge: the replacement tooth is connected to crowns on neighboring teeth.
Fillings, Crowns & Tooth Replacement
Full & Partial Dentures
Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth. A full denture replaces all teeth in an arch; a partial denture replaces selected spaces while some natural teeth remain. Each is designed around the support and fit available.
Fillings, Crowns & Tooth Replacement
Full-Mouth Rehabilitation
Full-mouth rehabilitation brings several treatment decisions into one coordinated plan. It may address widespread damage, wear, missing teeth, or changes in how the bite functions. The combination and sequence depend on a detailed assessment.
Gum Care
Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease treatment addresses inflammation and damage in the tissues supporting the teeth. The plan depends on whether disease is limited to the gums or involves deeper support, and may combine professional treatment with ongoing maintenance.
Gum Care
Deep Cleaning
Deep cleaning, also called scaling and root planing, treats affected tooth surfaces beneath the gumline. It removes deposits from areas involved in periodontal disease and is followed by reassessment to see how the tissues respond.
Gum Care
Periodontal Maintenance
After gum disease treatment, periodontal maintenance keeps attention on the tissues supporting your teeth. These visits combine targeted cleaning with ongoing checks, so changes can be identified and the care plan adjusted.
Gum Care
Gum Grafting
Gum grafting adds tissue where gums have become thin or receded. Depending on the site, a graft may strengthen the gum around a tooth, cover some exposed root surface, or address both concerns.
Gum Care
Crown Lengthening
Crown lengthening exposes more of an existing tooth by adjusting the surrounding gum and, when needed, bone. It may create room to restore a tooth damaged close to the gumline or address excess gum coverage.
Gum Care
Gum Surgery
Gum surgery is a group of procedures, not one standard operation. The approach may improve access to deep pockets, support regeneration in selected defects, or add tissue where gums have receded.
Protecting Your Teeth
Nightguards for Teeth Grinding
A nightguard is an appliance worn over the teeth to create a protective contact surface. It may be recommended when grinding or clenching is damaging teeth or dental work, after the cause and symptoms are assessed.
Protecting Your Teeth
Sports Mouthguards
A sports mouthguard cushions the teeth and nearby soft tissues during activities where a blow or fall could affect the mouth. Fit, coverage and the demands of your sport all matter when choosing protection.
Start with the whole picture.
General dental care looks at your teeth, gums and wider oral health. Routine visits can help identify concerns before you notice symptoms. The assessment takes account of your dental history, general health and the changes you have noticed.
What a visit may involve.
An examination, review of your health history and assessment of your gums help establish a starting point. Imaging is considered when it is clinically useful. Cleaning and preventive recommendations depend on the findings and the kind of care required; they are not automatically the same for every patient.
Urgent concerns and growing smiles.
Explore what to discuss when a tooth needs prompt attention, or prepare for your child’s next dental visit. Our guides explain assessment, prevention and the questions to bring to the dental team.
A plan that fits the findings.
You may need ongoing preventive care, further investigation or a discussion about treatment. The appropriate interval between visits depends on your individual needs. If there is a concern about a damaged tooth or your gums, ask which options are available and who would provide them.
Practical questions.
Timing and cost depend on the examination, any imaging and the care recommended. An assessment does not commit you to every treatment discussed. Bring your questions about priorities and alternatives, and ask for clarification before deciding.
Between visits.
Follow the home-care advice agreed with your dental team, and tell them about new symptoms or changes in your health. Routine care cannot guarantee that future dental problems will not occur. Continued assessment and daily care remain important.
