Our general dentistry services include:

Sealants

A dental sealant is a thin, plastic coating that is placed over the chewing surfaces of the teeth to prevent tooth decay. Most often sealants are used on the back teeth (molars or premolars). The sealant quickly adheres to the depressions and grooves of the teeth to form a protective shield over the enamel.

Tooth Extractions

An extraction, sometimes referred to informally as tooth pulling, is the removal of a tooth from the dental socket. Though this procedure is most commonly performed on children to remove baby teeth, it is sometimes necessary for adults to have teeth removed.

Scaling and Root Planing

This procedure is often referred to as deep cleaning and is the process of removing dental plaque and calculus. The buildup of these materials will otherwise cause inflammation and removing them helps to establish gums that are healthy and free of disease.
