Professional dental cleaning i.e. “Prophylaxis”, is part of oral hygiene and involves the removal of dental plaque from teeth with the intention of preventing cavities (dental caries), gingivitis, and dental disease. People routinely clean their own teeth by brushing and inter-dental cleaning, and dental hygienists can remove hardened deposits (tartar) not removed by routine cleaning.

Dental X-rays are pictures of the teeth, bones, and soft tissues around them to help find problems with the teeth, mouth, and jaw. X-ray pictures can show cavities, hidden dental structures (such as wisdom teeth), and bone loss that cannot be seen during a visual examination. Dental X-rays may also be done as follow-up after dental treatments.

We all want to look our best. Time, accidents or even heredity can inhibit our desire to appear in our best possible way. Cosmetic services can provide what mother nature did not.
If you have crooked teeth and/or a misaligned bite (an under bite or overbite), there are a variety of treatments that can help straighten teeth, including braces and retainers. Many general dentists are doing basic alignment and orthodontics, but orthodontists specialize in correcting irregularities of the teeth. In some cases, a removable retainer will be all that’s necessary. In other rare cases (especially when there is an extreme overbite or under bite), surgery may be necessary.
