are trained in the latest skills and technology. You can experience

is
pain-free. You’ll leave with a sleek, smooth smile.
Periodontal Services (Gum Care)
Everybody’s needs are different. Some people
require more attention to improving their gum health. By doing a periodontal
screening exam, we can determine the level of care a patient needs.
This test is to check for signs of Periodontal (Gum) Disease.
Periodontal Disease is a painless, yet
very serious problem. Not only will it cause a person to loose their
teeth, it has also been linked to heart disease.

Arestin Antibiotic Placement
When a patient has Periodontal Disease, This means that
they may have areas around the tooth that have deep pockets. After these
pockets are thoroughly cleaned by our hygienist, she may choose to place
an antibiotic chip to ensure that all the toxins are removed. Her goal
is to stop the bleeding (signs of infection)and minimize the pocket so
the patient can keep it clean at home.
Patient Education
Oral health is a partnership between us and the patient.
Compliance at home is essential in maintaining good oral health. It is
our responsibility to educate our patients on proper brushing and flossing
techniques and making sure that they see us regularly. Our patients pre-book
their next visits to make sure they reserve a time that is convenient
for them.
Sealants
Seal it before it decays! Sealants are protective coverings
that help reduce the possibility for decay. These are great for children!
