General Dentistry

 

Maintaining good overall oral health starts with two things: establishing a daily oral hygiene routine and seeing a dentist for exams and cleanings twice a year. Here are just some of the general dentistry care we offer you and your family.
 

Exams, X-Rays, & Cleanings

Dr. Wren, Dr. Eber, our dental hygienists, and assistants provide complete preventative care services such as exams and cleanings, and digital X-Rays. 

If it’s been a while since you’ve had a cleaning, don’t worry! We also offer deep cleanings and full-mouth scaling to remove any buildup of plaque and tartar.
 

 

 

Mouth Guards & Appliances

Our clinic offers custom mouth guards to protect teeth during sports—especially contact sports like football or hockey. We recommend wearing a mouth guard if you or your child plays a sport to protect teeth, gums, tongue, and lips. Custom mouth guards are much more effective than mouth guards you can buy at sports retail stores because they form specifically to your teeth and create less room for potential damage.

We also offer custom night guards for teeth grinding. Over time, teeth grinding can wear down the surfaces of the teeth and also affect your bite and teeth alignment. We offer night guards to help keep your teeth safe while you sleep.

Dr. Wren and Dr. Eber also help patients with sleep apnea to create appliances that will help you breathe more easily throughout the night. Ask us how we can help you sleep better!
 

Dental Care for Kids

We also treat kids too! Your child can receive a fluoride treatment to help prevent tooth decay in their baby teeth and emerging permanent teeth. Fluoride is safe and effective, and the American Dental Association (ADA) recommends that children receive fluoride treatment, as children are very susceptible to tooth decay.
