Gentle Dental Cleaning
The ultrasonic scaler gently removes heavy stains and calcium deposits from your teeth.
We recommend that you come in to see us for a checkup and dental cleaning every six months. You can count on our well-trained hygienists to be very gentle during your cleaning.
Our hygienists use an ultrasonic EMS Piezo® scaler to clean your teeth. With this state-of-the-art technology that uses sound waves, they can quickly and effectively clean your teeth with minimal discomfort and damage to the gums. They then use a hand scaler for the fine removal of tartar.
After your cleaning, the hygienist will polish your teeth using a polishing paste and an air-flow device which removes additional particles, as well as heavy stains, so your teeth are bright and shiny! The air-flow device is particularly effective for patients with implants and orthodontics.
After the cleaning, our hygienist will go over the areas that can be improved on with good oral care at home.
Gum-Saving Patient Education
With proper hygiene and regular cleanings, you will be able to keep your teeth and gums healthy for years to come.
Losing teeth as a person ages is not written in stone. It doesn’t have to happen. You can protect your healthy teeth against gum disease—the #1 cause of adult tooth loss—with regular cleanings, as well as some simple instructions from our hygienists.
In addition to providing thorough cleanings, our hygienists will show you how you can preserve your teeth for years to come. They’re here to help you learn more about dental health and good oral hygiene. They take the time to explain the results of your digital X-rays, intraoral camera photos and gum evaluation chart in easy-to-understand terms.
Our hygienists also take the time to explain how to effectively brush your teeth, the importance of flossing and how to floss, the purpose of using a mouthwash and how many times a day you should use it, along with when you should brush your teeth. Your oral hygiene at home is an important part of keeping your teeth and gums healthy.
Non-Surgical Gum Disease Treatment
In treating gum disease, our hygienists use an ultrasonic scaler to gently scale each tooth. Scaling is the process of removing tartar from the tooth. Next, we fine scale using hand instruments to ensure all deposits are removed. This is followed by a rubber cup polish and air polisher, if necessary, for difficult stains.
ARESTIN® Antibiotic Therapy
Gum disease is caused by bacteria. ARESTIN is an antibiotic that helps kill the bacteria at the root of the problem. In treating gum disease, our hygienists place ARESTIN within infected gum pockets, right below your gumline. ARESTIN is very different from an antibiotic that’s taken in pill form, as it is placed exactly where it is needed on the infected gum.
ARESTIN contains microspheres, which are tiny, bead-like particles that are not visible to the naked eye. These microspheres release the antibiotic over time, killing bacteria so that your gums can heal better.
Easy, Flexible Scheduling with No Waiting Times
We are open as early as 7:30 a.m. and as late as 7 p.m. With these hours, you can get the dental care you need before or after work. And since we do not ‘double schedule’, like some dental offices do, we won’t keep you waiting long in our reception area.
