Preventing dental problems
At Cedar Hills Family Dentistry, the first step in establishing oral health is a professional cleaning and comprehensive examination. Our hygienists use specially-designed instruments to get your teeth really clean, removing stains, bacteria, plaque, and hardened tartar from areas you cannot see or reach. The hygienist will be happy to answer your questions about home care and provide a hands-on demonstration of proper brushing and flossing techniques.
Dr. Isaacson performs a thorough examination, checking each tooth as well as soft tissues. With regular checkups, most dental problems such as tooth decay, gum diseases, and oral cancers can be avoided or intercepted early. That saves you discomfort, time in the chair, and expense, and allows the best possible outcome.
The doctor may recommend extra steps for further protection. Topical fluoride treatment strengthens enamel and adds only a few minutes to your hygiene visit. Transparent dental sealant applied to chewing surfaces of molars dramatically reduces risk of decay. If you play sports or grind your teeth at night, a custom-fit mouthguard reduces stress, wear, and risk of damage.
