The American Dental Association, along with our professional dentists, advises scheduling two preventive dental appointments annually for optimal oral health outcomes. During your dental checkup, your dentist will conduct a visual examination and periodically take x-rays, which are essential for assessing changes in oral health since your last visit and diagnosing conditions like emerging tooth decay. Furthermore, we include a screening for oral cancer as part of your comprehensive exam.

Smile Protection: Sealants, Fluoride & Restorative Care
If an individual is prone to cavities or has weakened tooth enamel, their dentist in Best Smiles can apply a dental sealant to prevent bacteria and plaque from affecting the tooth structure. Additionally, a fluoride treatment can be administered to strengthen the teeth, thereby reducing the risk of enamel loss, fractures, and chips.
Should a condition such as a dental cavity or gingivitis be diagnosed, the dentist will review treatment options, such as tooth-colored fillings and specialized teeth cleanings, with the patient.
