Why is preventive dental care important?
Preventive dental cleanings, also known as prophylactic cleanings, are the procedures you likely think of when you’re reminded of the dentist. They’re routine cleanings for patients with healthy gums. The American Dental Association recommends two cleanings per year for most patients. This gives our team a chance to remove plaque and tartar build up, so your smile can stay healthy and beautiful for longer.

If you don’t floss, you’re leaving plaque on 40% of your tooth surfaces!

Find Out if No prep Veneers are Right for You
If you're looking a minimally invasive treatment to enhance your smile, no prep veneers offer a cutting-edge solution. These are custom-designed to fit seamlessly over your natural teeth—no shaving and often no enamel removal required. No prep veneers deliver a brighter, more balanced smile with minimal impact on your existing tooth structure.
Night Guards
Unconscious teeth grinding and clenching, known as bruxism, is a common issue that tends to happen at night while patients are asleep. However, night guards can help patients alleviate symptoms of bruxism by creating a barrier between your teeth that protects them from grinding-related damage. Depending on the severity of the case, night guards can be made from several different materials with varying degrees of softness.
