What preventive services does my smile need?

Most patients can benefit from regular exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants. X-rays help us monitor for hidden problems, and oral cancer screenings support early detection. Based on your needs, we may recommend additional services like custom nightguards or more frequent cleanings. Every smile is different, so we tailor preventive care to your unique oral health and lifestyle to keep your teeth and gums strong and healthy long-term!

How can I take great care of my teeth and gums at home?

Good oral hygiene at home is key to a healthy smile. Brush your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and use a soft-bristled toothbrush. Floss daily to remove plaque between your teeth and below the gumline. Limit sugary foods and drinks, and stay hydrated with water. If you grind your teeth or play sports, talk to us about our custom mouthguards. Regular home care, combined with routine dental visits, is the best way to protect your oral health.

Is preventive dental care expensive?

Preventive dental care is typically very affordable and often covered in full or partially by dental insurance. In addition, services like cleanings, exams, and X-rays are more cost-effective compared to treating cavities, gum disease, or tooth loss. Investing in preventive care helps you avoid more complex and costly treatments in the future. If you don’t have insurance, we also offer flexible payment options to help make preventive care accessible and manageable for your budget.
