Family Dentists Offer the Services and Treatments You Need
Family dentists treat patients of all ages, which means everyone in your home can see the same dentist. If you prefer, you can even schedule back-to-back checkups to make visiting the dentist more convenient.
Your dentist understands how oral health needs can change throughout your life and offers treatments and services that meet your needs no matter your age. In addition to offering checkups and filling decayed teeth, your family dentist also:
- Repairs Damaged Teeth: Your dentist offers treatments that restore and protect cracked, chipped, broken, or fragile teeth. Bonding, dental crowns, or veneers may be recommended depending on the extent of the damage.
- Evaluates Development in Children: Growth or development issues that affect your child's jaw could lead to lifelong difficulties if they're not detected and treated promptly. During every visit to the Santa Cruz, CA, dental office, your dentist looks for issues and recommends treatments if needed.
- Performs Oral Cancer Screenings: Oral cancer symptoms are often subtle and overlooked. Fortunately, oral cancer screenings performed at every checkup will help you ensure that you receive the care you need if you ever develop cancer.
- Applies Sealants to Your Child's Teeth: Sealants fill in grooves in your child's back teeth, reducing the risk of cavities.
- Saves Inflamed or Infected Teeth with Root Canal Therapy: Root canal therapy ends your pain and helps you avoid the loss of your tooth.
- Offers Tooth Restoration Options: If you've lost teeth, your dentist can help you choose between dentures, bridges, or dental implants.
- Helps You Look Your Best: Bonding, veneers, crowns, teeth whitening, and other cosmetic dental services and treatments improve the appearance of your smile.
- Improves Your Gum Health: Regular dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar from your gums, decreasing your risk of both gum disease and cavities. If you do develop gum disease, your dentist also offers treatments that can help you improve the health of your gums.
