Prevent Dental Problems Before They Start

Regular dental care is vital to maintaining a healthy smile. By scheduling biannual visits to our dental office, we can keep an eye out for early signs of dental decay and gingivitis.

Unlike other dentists, we provide comprehensive dental care by seeing how soft tissues and muscles affect your oral health. For example, during your appointment, we’ll examine your bite to make sure your teeth fit together and that there are no uneven wear patterns.

The Importance of Oral Exams

One important step to oral hygiene is scheduling regular oral exams and cleanings. This allows your dentist to do a deep cleaning of your teeth and gums, and check for tooth decay and gum disease.

In addition to checking for gum disease, your dentist may also do an oral cancer screening or check for TMJ disorder. People with TMJ disorder tend to experience migraines, jaw pain, sensitive teeth, and worn tooth enamel. Our Detroit dentists can provide you with TMJ treatment to help alleviate facial pain.

Children’s Dentistry 

Tooth decay is the most common chronic childhood disease in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Fortunately, our Detroit dentists have plenty of experience helping children understand how to take care of their smiles. We take pride in helping children develop good oral hygiene habits that will last a lifetime.

During your child’s appointment, we’ll examine the inside of their mouth and remove plaque and tartar buildup. Plaque is an invisible film of bacteria that increases your child’s risk for cavities. Once plaque hardens into tartar, it can only be removed by a dental professional.
