Did you know we offer comprehensive dentistry to keep your smiles beautiful and whole? Our approach to comprehensive dentistry starts with a simple checkup, so be sure to see our team today! In today’s blog, Dr. Robert M Browne talks about dental checkups and the array of treatment options we offer our patients.
The Checkup and Cleaning
Comprehensive dentistry starts with a checkup. During your exam, we will use digital x-rays and advanced intraoral cameras to make a diagnosis with precision, assessing the issues that could impact your oral health. For example, we could identify tooth decay, gingivitis, gum disease, and even issues like TMJ disorder and bruxism (teeth grinding). We then create a treatment plan, selecting one or more treatments from our comprehensive array to correct the concern.
In the same visit, we also clean your teeth to remove harmful layers of plaque and tartar, which is essential for fighting tooth decay and gum disease, and also bad breath and teeth stains!
General Dentistry
With general dentistry, we can select treatment to tackle concerns like gum disease. We can offer a periodontal cleaning to remove harmful plaque and tartar from both the teeth and roots, making the disease more manageable moving forward and keeping your smile whole. We can also provide custom oral appliances to treat bruxism stopping your chronic teeth grinding and preventing injury to your bite. We also offer unique treatments for children to fight tooth decay, such as fluoride and dental sealants.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Comprehensive dentistry also includes treatments that boost the beauty of your smile. With cosmetic dentistry, we can offer teeth whitening to brighten teeth, or bonding and contouring to repair and reshape them in one visit. With porcelain veneers, we can reshape the teeth and correct multiple cosmetic concerns at once for a makeover. We also have orthodontic clear aligners to correct misalignment with a cosmetic approach!
Restorative Dentistry
If a tooth needs repair, for example, if one is cracked or chipped or decayed and/or infected, then we could help with restorative dentistry. With our composite resin fillings, we can treat tooth decay in one visit with lifelike results. We also have custom crowns that look natural and take on more severe concerns. Root canal therapy stops infection and we could also address tooth loss with bridges, denture, or even dental implants.
Urgent Care Dentistry
For people with damaged teeth, our comprehensive dentistry approach includes urgent care dentistry to take on dental emergencies!
