Prevention is key
Routine exams and cleanings are essential to maintaining a healthy mouth
Comprehensive exams
Dr. Kramer will perform a thorough exam, going tooth-by-tooth to evaluate the individual and overall health of your teeth. This not only includes checking for decay, but also evaluating the gums and surrounding tissue in your mouth, as well as the function of your bite. With this information, Dr. Kramer can create a preventative care plan that works for your individual needs.
Routine Professional Cleanings
Routine dental cleanings are key to maintaining oral health. Even with daily brushing and flossing, some areas are simply hard to reach. Plaque build up and tartar deposits harbor bacteria that can lead to cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. Professional cleanings are important to remove debris from these hard to reach areas, and also help polish away stains - that way you can keep your smile healthy and bright!
Deep cleanings
If it’s been a while since your last cleaning, you may have significant build up that needs to be removed. Our office offers deep cleanings, also known as scaling and root planing, to remove tartar build up that’s accumulated under the gum line. We also offer local anesthesia is necessary to help with any discomfort.
Fluoride
Our office offers fluoride varnish application in order to help re-mineralize and maintain the strength of your teeth. This protective coating can prevent new cavities from developing, and prevent some cavities from getting worse.
