Dental Cleanings & Exams

Dental cleanings and exams are the foundation of our dental practice. When you visit our office for the first time, we will walk you through all of the examinations we offer. These exams are used to check for any dental problem or abnormality. We use specialized tools and techniques to look for things like oral cancer, gum disease, cavities, decay, infections, and other issues.

We also offer regular dental cleanings. Hygiene visits are designed to keep the mouth clean and free of damage-causing buildup. These visits are also designed to make sure you are getting the information you need to keep your mouth clean at home.

Flouride Treatment & Varnishes

Fluoride is great for keeping your teeth healthy and strong. This substance, found in tap water in most cities and in many toothpastes, helps to maintain your enamel and prevent decay and sensitivity problems. We can treat or varnish your teeth with fluoride to give you the preventive boost you need.

Nutritional Counseling

What you eat and drink can have a major impact on your oral health. Want to know how to best prevent issues? Talk to one of our hygienists to get the inside scoop on how to protect your teeth and gums with healthy food.

Nonsurgical Gum Disease Treatment

Are you noticing red, swollen, tender, or bleeding gums? These are all signs of gum disease — let us help you by offering comfortable, nonsurgical treatment options that can restore your oral health! We offer scaling and root planing procedures in addition to preventive options and information. Our Durham office is the first (and currently only) office to offer PerioLase treatment. This laser treatment can remove your gum disease infection with complete accuracy and comfort! Learn more about gum disease and how we can help you get rid of it.

Bruxism & Athletic Mouthguards

Do you or your child suffer from bruxism? Are you trying to prevent dental injuries while playing dangerous contact sports? If your answer to either of these questions is yes, we have something that can help. We custom fit high-quality mouthguards to protect the teeth from both grinding and clenching damage and from injury. Talk to one of our doctors to determine how these specialized bruxism and athletic mouthguards can help you.
