Visit the Best Dentist in Town for Improving Your Lifelong Oral Health

We are the best dentist office for treating patients throughout their lifetime.  In our dental office, we enjoy working with children, adults, parents, grandparents, etc.  We can treat everyone in the family and grow with our patients to encourage good health now and in the future.  This is beneficial for you because it means that we are providing continuity of care.  In the medical field this essentially means that we get to know you, your teeth and gums, what has happened to you in the past, and we can use that information to help predict what will happen in the future.  Additionally, we can use our knowledge to prevent some oral health problems from occurring. For example, if we treated you for Gingivitis last year, we will know that you are at a higher risk of developing gum disease and will pay particularly close attention to any warning signs.  If you were to change dentists on a frequent basis, the benefits you get from a continuity of care would be eliminated.

As a family dentist office, we can take steps to help you and your family have lifelong oral health, and that starts by understanding what challenges people face at different times in their lifetime.  For example, children are at an increased risk of getting cavities.  This is mostly due to their propensity to eat food that is high in sugar and starch while not brushing teeth as frequently or as well as they should.  We can help to reduce this risk by cleaning their teeth twice a year, giving them a fluoride treatment annually and using dental sealant when necessary.

For older teens, one of the major issues that we address are straightening teeth.   We can make a recommendation as to whether or not your teen should wear braces and if so what the best options for them are.  Another way that we keep teens healthy is by making sure that they have a mouth guard that fits while playing sports.  As the best dentist in town, we are always looking for ways to prevent tooth damage and statistically, mouth guards prevent hundreds of thousands of mouth injuries every year.

Adults have the same risks as our younger patients in that they can get cavities or damage their teeth, but we also see more signs of gum disease.  This condition can impact everyone and those who do not have their teeth regularly cleaned are at an increased risk.  Gum disease strikes when plaque and tartar build up underneath the gums, making regular teeth cleanings just as important for adults as they are for kids.  Simultaneously, adults have the additional challenge of enamel erosion.  It can be exasperated by eating foods that are high in acid, brushing too aggressively, or not having regular dental care.  For those that have suffered erosion, we are the best dentist for protecting the teeth and have a variety of tools including dental bonding, veneers, and crowns to help eliminate sensitivity.

Regardless of how old you are or what stage of life you are in, we are the best dentist in town to help keep you in excellent oral health.
