DENTAL CHECKUPS FOR CHILDREN

You should begin going to the dentist when you are a child, and then you will be on a routine schedule of visiting every six months. If you have children, the best time to start taking them is at one year of age. We examine the teeth that the child has and let you know if there are any concerns. Appointments will be made to take the child back to the dentist every six months. We will clean the teeth with fluoride toothpaste and check the teeth for cavities.

We offer free dental examinations and x-rays for your convenience, schedule an appointment.

WHAT HAPPENS DURING A DENTAL EXAM

When you are an adult, a general dentist examines the teeth more in depth to look for gingivitis, decay on the teeth and oral cancer. There are ways for dentists to easily look at the mouth to determine if you might have cancer. It is very important to continue seeing the dentist while you are an adult because the teeth cannot be replaced. Most visits to the general dentist only involve cleaning the teeth and flossing between them. You will be instructed on how to care for the teeth and the best products to use.

WE ALSO OFFER AFTER HOURS EMERGENCY DENTISTRY

We also have emergency hours in case you break a tooth or you need something done that cannot wait until the office opens. We have two conveniently placed dental practices serving all of your dental needs.
