Treatment should be aimed at prevention. The more you care for your teeth the better you will feel and in the long run it will save on your dental care expenses.
Gum Treatment
Gum treatment, or periodontal care as it is formally known, is the basis of great dental health. So much emphasis is placed on our teeth that we forget about our gums. Healthy gums are the foundation of great teeth. Clean, healthy gums prevent bacteria from accumulating in the mouth that can cause bad breath and serious disease. Pregnant mothers should pay special attention to their gums as these could harbor bacteria that can potentially harm her child.
Cleaning
In addition to your brushing and flossing routine you should regularly have your teeth cleaned by your dentist. This will prevent bad breath, itchy gums, sensitivity, bleeding and contribute to your overall oral health.
Whitening
Great looking teeth is just are as important as healthy teeth. In 45 minutes Dra. Marcia can have you out the door with teeth even the stars could envy!
Cavities
We all hate them and most of us have got them. Even great dental care cannot stop all cavities from forming. Resin fillings are mercury-free and perfectly match the color of your teeth so no one will know you have one. If you have those old metal fillings then change them for better looking resins.
Crowns, Bridges and Prosthetics
It’s not just about the looks. Missing teeth can lead to weakening bones, loose teeth and mis-aligned bites. Getting those spaces filled is important to your long term health.
Root Canals
Are 100% preventable with good dental care. If you think you may need one, don’t wait until it becomes an emergency treatment. With modern endodontic equipment this procedure is not as bad as you may think.
