At Freedom Family Dentistry, we understand your desire to keep your smile beautiful and healthy, and want to help you make a plan to achieve your dental health goals. And when it comes to keeping dental problems at bay, prevention is key!
Comprehensive and Periodic Exams
Routine teeth cleaning and dental exams are the cornerstone of proactive and preventative dental health care. Our dentists and hygienists will carefully clean and examine your teeth, mouth, and gums, and will discuss any concerns they have with you. In addition, digital x-rays and an intraoral camera images are shared with you to give you the information you need to make an educated decision about your care plan.
Treatments for Gum (Periodontal) Disease
At times during patient exams, our dental professionals may find the beginning stages of periodontal, or gum disease. Symptoms often include bleeding or receding gums. It is extremely important to catch and treat gum disease early because of its effect not only on oral health but also on conditions like diabetes and pregnancy. A deep cleaning may be necessary. These treatments will keep your gums healthy and help stop the further spread of disease into your bone.
Planning in Advance
If your pastimes provide the opportunity for sports related injuries, we offer custom splints and athletic guards. These devices will help protect your precious teeth from injury, and reduce your risk of concussion. Or, if you tend to grind and clench your teeth, sleeping in a splint can prevent future fractures. Our professionals will help you find the perfect option and fit for your lifestyle needs. Call us today!
