Dental Preventative Care Services and Advice

Sealants

Sealants are a clear or white plastic that are placed in the grooves of the biting surface of back teeth.

Fluoride Treatment

When children are young and their teeth are forming, fluoride joins with the enamel surface and makes it harder and more decay-resistant. The benefits for adults are just as great. Fluoride can help repair an early cavity, even before it’s become visible in the mouth, by rebuilding the enamel layer of the teeth. It also helps solve the problem of root carries or root sensitivity.
