Our top priority at Fremont Village Dental is maintaining your oral health over the span of your life so you can enjoy your daily activities confidently. Whether we’re addressing damaged teeth, tooth sensitivity, gum health, or other concerns, our general dentistry services are here to support your healthy, active lifestyle.
Oral Exams & New Patient Exams
Timely dental care is paramount to maintaining your oral health and overall health. Regular oral examinations ensure we can monitor your oral health, including any changes or concerns, as they arise. This often reduces the need for more serious intervention later, giving you a solid foundation for your future oral health.
Dental Hygiene Appointments
The clean mouth feeling is one we can all appreciate, and with routine dental hygiene appointments, you get to have that fresh start on a regular basis. This is an opportunity to prevent gum disease, bad breath, cavities, and other common issues that can become problematic over time.
Oral Cancer Screening
Routine oral cancer screening during your dental check-up ensures we can support your whole health journey. Using simple and non-invasive techniques, we look for signs of unusual changes to the mouth, tongue, lips and throat.
Dental Sealants
Some areas of the teeth can be difficult to clean thoroughly with regular brushing, making them vulnerable to bacteria build-ups that can cause cavities. Dental sealants are protective coatings applied to these areas (usually on the chewing surfaces of the molars) to create a barrier against bacteria. Sealants are most commonly used for children and teens, but can also benefit adults.
Dental X-Rays
Digital dental X-rays provide us with an essential diagnostic tool that helps us assess your overall oral health and spot potential issues. With X-ray technology, we’re able to assess areas of the mouth that aren’t visible in a visual examination. We use them to monitor bone health, detect cavities, evaluate the positions and growth of the teeth, and plan treatments.
Root Canals
While many procedures focus on the outer hard shell of the tooth, root canal therapy is used to treat the soft tissue within the tooth structure. This tissue (known as pulp) can become inflamed and infected, leading to pain, sensitivity, and other uncomfortable symptoms. A root canal addresses this issue fully, allowing the tooth to remain in place.
Teeth Extractions
While it’s always ideal to retain the natural teeth as long as possible, severe damage, decay, or the potential for future issues may make a tooth extraction necessary. An extraction can prevent potential issues, such as infections, and provide the opportunity for a more stable long-term restoration to be created.
