Stop in Regularly for Preventive Services

You will miss spots no matter how well, how long, or how often you brush your teeth. Professional dental cleanings ensure your mouth is cleared of anything that can harm your teeth or gums. During your oral exam, we’ll look for any problems. By catching them early, we treat them sooner and get your mouth looking and feeling great again.

Regular checkups are only the beginning of what we can do for you. You can also benefit from our other general dental services:

  • Sealants – Sealants form a protective barrier between your tooth enamel and disease-causing bacteria.
  • Fluoride Treatments – Fluoride prevents cavities and can even reverse tooth decay in its early stages.
  • Gum Disease Treatment – We can painlessly clear away infection-causing bacteria with laser treatment and give your gum tissue a chance to repair itself.
  • Nutritional Counseling – Our team can answer your questions about the role that foods and beverages play in your oral and total body health.
  • Custom Athletic Mouthguards – Professionally made mouthguards protect your teeth from damage when playing sports or being active.
  • Oral Cancer Screenings – Early detection of oral cancer improves the odds for successful treatment. Don’t take unnecessary chances!

“Very nice people! I really like Aberdeen Smiles, I think the dentists are in too much of a hurry though.

Common Questions About General Dentistry

What is general dentistry?

General dentists such as Dr. Drake and Dr. Ky are like primary care physicians for your mouth. This is the office you can go to for a wide range of services. This starts with preventive dentistry, such as dental cleanings and exams. It also includes fluoride treatments, dental sealants, and athletic mouthguards. At our practice, you can get gum infection treatment and oral cancer screenings, too.

What foods are healthy for my teeth?

If you want a healthy smile, you’ll want a diet rich in whole grains, fiber, fruits and vegetables, calcium, and lean proteins. Make sure you avoid sugary drinks or sticky sweets, which can damage your tooth enamel. Drink plenty of water too! This washes away bacteria from your teeth and gums.

What are gum disease symptoms?

You may not see the signs of gum disease on your own until its advanced stages, which is why it is often referred to as a silent killer. It’s also why your routine dental exams are so important. The earlier you spot periodontal infection, the easier it is to manage and, in many cases, reverse. Common symptoms to look for include red, swollen, tender, or bleeding gums, loose teeth, and persistent bad breath.

Can I avoid gum disease?

The best way to avoid gum disease is by practicing good oral hygiene, brushing twice a day and flossing daily as well. It’s also important to visit your dentist for professional dental cleanings at least twice a year. Since smokers are more likely to get gum disease, you’ll lessen your risk if you stop smoking. If you notice any signs of gum disease, notify your dentist right away. Treating it in its early stages will enable you to avoid the tooth loss that can result from advanced gum disease.
