General dental maintenance and routine care are important elements in your family's ongoing dental health. Our staff of dental professionals offers routine and preventive services to adult and child patients. Adults and children can receive routine cleanings and dental x-rays at our practice, as well as restorative treatments such as tooth-colored cavity fillings, crowns, and bridges. For children, we offer a full range of preventative care, such as fluoride treatments and sealants, specially designed to protect developing teeth.
In addition, our dentists treat patients suffering from gingivitis and periodontitis. Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease and gingivitis, can have many negative effects on a patient's overall health. Caused by bacteria found in plaque, gum disease occurs most often in pregnant women and patients who neglect routine oral care. Common symptoms of periodontal disease are swollen, red, and bleeding gums or a receding gum line. If allowed to progress to advanced stages, periodontal disease can result in tooth loss and other health problems.
