OUR EMPHASIS IS ON PREVENTION

Common sense tells us that preventing dental disease is less costly and more rewarding than correcting problems once they occur. Good dental health is no accident – it is the result of good habits, proper nutrition and regular professional care.

Once you understand how dental disease begins, then you will understand how to prevent it. That is why educating you is one of our primary goals.

DIAGNOSIS – OUR MOST VALUABLE TOOL

To prevent dental disease, first we need a complete picture of your present oral health, as well as your dental and medical history. Your initial examination will include an evaluation of past, existing and potential problems. X-rays and an examination of your oral tissues for decay and gum/bone disease are used to identify hidden problems. If a malocclusion is present or developing, we may also take diagnostic impressions. This information will help us predict your future dental health.
