During your first visit, we will complete a comprehensive cleaning and oral examination. We will screen for decay, gum disease, oral cancer, TMJ, and problems with your bite. We can also address any Cosmetic Dentistry concerns you may have. In addition to preventive General Dentistry and quality fillings and crowns, we offer Orthodontics, Oral Surgery, Restorative Dentistry and dental implants to meet all your oral health needs. And all of our services are delivered while focusing on patient comfort.

Step 3

Complete Oral Exam

The Gentle Dentist is passionate about preventive dentistry - or regular checkups - as the best possible means of maintaining optimum oral health. A thorough dental exam can help each member of your family maintain a beautiful, healthy smile by catching problems early, like:

  • Examine for dental decay, gum disease, and periodontal disease
  • Check for signs of oral cancer
  • Digital and Panoramic X-Rays (as needed)

Step 4

Dental Care Plan

Based on the exam and the patient’s interests, we will make recommendations for follow up care. Minor tooth fractures, tooth decay, and tooth damage can often be repaired with a dental filling. At The Gentle Dentist, we make it painless and convenient to receive additional care when you need or want it.
