General & Preventative Treatments
Dental Exams
Routine dental exams are thorough and personalized, allowing our team to assess your oral health comprehensively and detect any potential issues early on. Our dental exams include digital X-rays and thorough examinations to ensure the health of your teeth, gums, and overall oral cavity.
Dental Cleanings
Professional dental cleanings are essential for maintaining optimal oral health by removing plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing alone cannot reach. Our hygienists perform thorough cleanings, including scaling, polishing, and fluoride treatments, to help prevent cavities and gum disease.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Regular oral cancer screenings are a crucial part of your dental check-ups to detect any signs of oral cancer early and initiate timely treatment if necessary. Our team performs comprehensive screenings that involve examining your mouth, tongue, and throat for any abnormalities or suspicious lesions.
Periodontal Care
Our periodontal care focuses on preventing, diagnosing, and treating gum disease to maintain healthy gums and protect your overall well-being. Our dental team offers scaling and root planing treatments to remove bacterial buildup and restore gum health, preventing further progression of gum disease.
Sportsguards
Custom sports guards offer superior protection for athletes by minimizing the risk of dental injuries while engaging in sports activities. Our sports guards are individually tailored to fit comfortably and securely, ensuring maximum protection for your teeth and mouth during sports participation.
Sleep Apnea Treatments
We utilize Fotona NightLase® technology for effective and non-invasive treatment of sleep apnea, helping patients achieve better sleep quality and overall well-being. NightLase therapy involves gentle laser treatment to tighten the tissues in the throat, reducing airway obstructions that lead to sleep apnea symptoms.
TMJ Treatments
Our TMJ treatments focus on relieving jaw pain and discomfort caused by temporomandibular joint disorders through personalized and conservative approaches. With a thorough assessment, we customize treatment plans that may include lifestyle modifications, dental appliances, and stress management techniques to alleviate TMJ symptoms.
Dental Emergencies
When faced with a dental emergency, prompt action is crucial for preserving oral health. We understand the urgency of dental emergencies and prioritize swift appointments, ensuring that patients receive timely treatment for issues such as broken fillings, knocked-out teeth, and chipped or broken teeth. From managing abscesses to addressing dental trauma, our team is ready to provide the necessary care to alleviate discomfort and restore smiles.
Dental Technology
Fotona NightLase® Therapy
We offer Fotona NightLase® Therapy, a non-invasive laser treatment for reducing the effects of sleep apnea and snoring. By heating the oral mucosa tissue, this gentle treatment helps to tighten the collagen, leading to a reduction in snoring and potential improvement in sleep apnea.
In-Office Whitening
Patients can benefit from in-office whitening treatments that offer safe, effective, and noticeable results in a single visit. Through the use of professional-grade whitening agents and advanced techniques, our team can help patients achieve brighter and more radiant smiles without the hassle of at-home treatments.
3D Scanning
With advanced 3D scanning technology, we capture comprehensive three-dimensional imagery of a patient’s teeth and use information in treatment planning.
Digital X-Rays
Digital X-ray technology offers higher image quality, reduced radiation exposure, and faster results compared to conventional film X-rays. These digital X-rays provide comprehensive images of the teeth, gums, and jawbone, allowing for the detection of tooth decay, bone loss, and infections, and enabling the development of precise treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs.
Sedation
Nitrous Oxide
Dental visits can sometimes bring feelings of anxiety for some patients. That’s why we offer nitrous oxide, also known as “laughing gas,” to help you feel calm and relaxed during your procedure. This safe and gentle form of sedation is administered by our team, allowing you to drift into a state of comfort while remaining fully conscious
Sedation by a Licensed Anesthesiologist
For more complex procedures or for patients with heightened anxiety, Detailed Dental Care offers sedation services administered by a licensed anesthesiologist. Your safety and comfort are paramount to us, which is why our experienced anesthesiologist oversees your sedation, ensuring a peaceful and anxiety-free experience from start to finish.
