Dental X-Rays

Sometimes, simply looking at the tooth won't reveal what lies underneath. Thanks to digital x-rays, we can figure out what's wrong and correct problems before they worsen.

Dental Exams

Before Dr. Dempsey or one of our hygienists perform any dental procedures, an examination is most important. Apart from evaluating your overall oral health and hygiene, we detect possible symptoms of oral diseases and jaw problems. If needed, we also conduct dental x-rays and other advanced diagnostic tests.

Cleaning

Even after cleaning your teeth and gums regularly, plaque may build up over time in some hard-to-reach areas. Professional cleaning from dental hygienists removes these deposits of plaque and prevent periodontal diseases.

Fluoride Treatments

Fluoride prevents tooth decay since it makes teeth more resistant to plaque and other bacteria. Try our fluoride treatments today to keep smiling. We use fluoride varnish to prevent cavities and keep teeth strong.

Dental Sealants

Deep grooves on tooth surfaces can make you vulnerable to cavities and other problems. Prevent this with dental sealants. This is your invisible shield against tooth decay. Ask about sealants now!

Periodontal Therapy

Periodontal (gum) disease is a major cause of tooth loss, so it's important not to overlook your gums since they can tell a lot about your dental health. Be wary of the telltale signs of gum trouble like bleeding, bad breath, or loose teeth. At the first sign of trouble, come to us for deep cleaning and other services. We'll keep your gums in the pink.
