Preventative Dentistry Spruce Grove Counts On
If you want to maintain optimal oral health for life, the first step is to visit a dentist regularly, and we’d love to welcome you here at Spruce Ridge Dental. Even the most diligent brushers and flossers fall victim to common oral health problems, and the best way to treat these issues is for our team to catch and treat them before they’re able to do lasting harm. We accomplish this goal with the help of comprehensive evaluations, refreshing hygiene, and other preventative services.
Check-ups & Cleanings
We strongly recommend that patients of all ages to attend check-ups and cleanings at our practice twice a year. These visits begin with a comprehensive evaluation of the surfaces of each tooth, your gums, your bite, and all the important components of your smile. Digital X-rays are captured so we clearly view dental structures that aren’t visible to the naked eye. If you’re an adult, we’ll perform an oral cancer screening as well so we can locate potentially abnormal cells at the earliest stage for your protection. Once our dedicated team forms a complete picture of your smile, we pinpoint areas of damage and recommend treatments that correct these issues.
Over time, even diligent patients experience hardened deposits of plaque and food particles on their teeth that simply can’t be removed through regular brushing and flossing. That’s where a professional cleaning from Spruce Ridge Dental comes in. One of our excellent oral hygienists thoroughly cleans teeth and gums and gives instruction on how to improve at-home oral hygiene techniques. When you leave our office, you’ll enjoy a smile that feels refreshed and looks polished.
Our team may recommend further measures to better protect your teeth and gums against the threat of decay or damage. These could include:
- Dental Sealants
- Nightguards for Bruxism
