Preventive Care

Let Family Smiles keep your mouth clean. We understand the importance of having a healthy mouth but know it goes beyond daily brushing. At Family Smiles, we evaluate your current regiment and provide guidance on future care to help protect your teeth against dental issues. We provide the following services:

Dental Exams and Check-ups

Evaluate your overall health and oral hygiene.

Oral Hygiene

After an assessment, we provide guidance and best practices to helping keep your mouth, teeth, and gums healthy to prevent disease.

Tooth Scaling and Planing

A professional cleaning that removes plaque and thoroughly cleans your teeth and gums.

Periodontal Treatment & Maintenance

For patients with a history of periodontal disease, we go beyond the standard cleaning to provide a more intensive cleaning process to restore and maintain gum and bone health.

Dental Sealants

A dental sealant is a thin plastic coating applied to the chewing surface of molars, premolars and any deep grooves and crevices in teeth. Sealants protect teeth from decay for many years, but need to be checked for wear and chipping at regular dental visits.

Fluoride Treatments

Topical fluoride strengthens teeth against decay and may be recommended for several reasons, such as tooth sensitivity, dry mouth, exposed root surfaces and more.

Custom Nightguards

A nightguard is a clear, thin, removable device that protects healthy teeth against the effects of grinding and clenching and may alleviate TMJ pain.
