Preventive Care
Keep your Smile healthy and bright
The Gentle Dentist is passionate about preventive dentistry - or regular checkups - as the best possible means of maintaining optimum oral health. Preventive dental care can help each member of your family maintain a beautiful, healthy smile by safeguarding against oral diseases like dental decay, gum disease, or periodontal disease. Our goal is to prevent these diseases from happening in the first place or to catch the problems in their early stages when they are easier and less expensive to treat.
Checkups for every member of the family
At The Gentle Dentist, our approach to preventive dental care includes routine gentle dental cleanings and checkups as well as education and advice that can help every member of your family practice good oral hygiene at home.
“I was unsure how my two children would do during their check-ups w/out me right by their sides, but the hygienists made them feel very comfortable so they didn’t even need me! I was also very pleasantly surprised that we all finished at approximately the same time. My son is already asking when we can go back to the dentist!! Thank you!”
Regular Preventive Care Visits
We recommend regular preventive dental care visits two times a year. Each routine visit includes a comprehensive cleaning and oral examination. We will screen for decay, gum disease, periodontal disease, oral cancer, TMJ, and problems with your bite. To enhance your smile, we can also address any cosmetic dentistry concerns you may have.
