Our goal is always to help our patients maintain their oral health and to care for and protect their natural teeth.
Maintaining oral health includes excellent home care, a good diet, healthy habits, and regular visits to our office for customized preventive care, which includes oral examinations and cleanings. Comprehensive examinations of the mouth, teeth, surrounding gum tissues, and supporting bone structures help to identify any areas of concern. Early detection and treatment of problematic conditions is critical to promoting long term health, longevity of teeth, and reducing overall costs of dental care.
Even with the best quality care, teeth and surrounding gum tissue and bone can be susceptible to disease. When the health of one or more teeth or surrounding areas is compromised, intervention can halt the progression and often reset these areas to a healthy and maintainable status. This is done by restoring the integrity and function of the affected area. It is important to consider that the factors and forces that caused the initial damage, if not controlled, will continue to cause future harm. Therefore, prevention and maintenance are always critical components of your care.
Our goal is to look at your mouth comprehensively. If cosmetics are a concern to you, they can have a place in your treatment plan. Cosmetics can sometimes be separate from achieving and maintaining health and function, other times they are intrinsically linked. Regardless, we want you to have the beautiful and confidence-inspiring smile you want! Please share your concerns with us and we can discuss your options.
