Dental Checkups & Cleanings

The American Dental Association recommends visiting the dentist for routine checkups and cleanings every six months. These visits consist of a thorough visual and tactile examination of your teeth, gums, and X-rays, as well as a professional cleaning from one of our experienced dental hygienists at Premier Family Dentistry. The goal of these visits is to spot, monitor, and treat minor dental concerns (like the early signs of decay) before they have a chance to progress and lead to more serious issues down the road.
Children’s Dentistry

We encourage parents who come to us to bring their children in, too, because we offer a number of kid-friendly treatments to help keep your family’s most precious smiles free of cavities. To make scheduling easier, we can plan you and your child’s appointments in blocks, allowing you to only make one trip to the dentist in a single day instead of several spread out over time!
Fluoride Treatment

Fluoride is a mineral that’s produced by rocks and found throughout nature, from the fresh fruits and vegetables that you eat to the air you breathe. It’s also added to local tap water sources to help combat dental decay in communities. It’s able to do this by strengthening the outermost protective layer of the teeth, called the enamel. If your enamel needs a little additional support and strength, our team can supplement your fluoride intake with a short and quick treatment. We’ll simply brush a fluoridated foam onto your teeth after your routine cleaning for added protection.
Nightguards for Bruxism

The routine grinding and clenching of your teeth can not only wear down the protective enamel and make them more susceptible to decay, but also increase the chances of cracking or breaking a tooth. To keep this from happening, our team offers customized nightguards made from cushioning acrylic. These are designed to be worn at night to help prevent the unconscious grinding and clenching of teeth leading to more severe concerns down the road, like TMJ disorder and dental damage.
