Understanding the Value
Regular Preventive Care
Preventive care is the best way to ensure that your smile remains healthy and strong. Regular check-ups help us prevent issues like tooth decay and gum disease and catch problems in their early stages when they’re easier to treat. Not only does preventive care keep your teeth healthy, but it also saves you time and money. By avoiding tooth decay, you prevent the need for expensive treatments like fillings, dental crowns, or root canal therapy. So save yourself some money, and come to MODERN BITE DENTISTRY every six months for a teeth cleaning and an oral exam from Dr. Shaggy!

Restore and Strengthen Your Teeth
Fluoride Treatments
If your teeth are suffering from minor decay, fluoride treatments are the best way to restore your smile to its healthiest state. The process is simple: Dr. Shaggy will apply a layer of fluoride-rich gel to your teeth, then rinse it away after a few minutes. The fluoride remineralizes your teeth by attracting and absorbing minerals like phosphate and calcium. These minerals strengthen tooth structure and help reverse minor decay, or soft spots.
Prevent Cavity Formation
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a great way to fight back against the formation of cavities, particularly in the rear teeth. Sealants consist of a clear, liquid resin which is applied directly to your teeth and hardened into a transparent barrier using a UV light. This barrier prevents bacteria, acid, and food particles from making direct contact with your teeth, preventing the formation of cavities.

Fight Back Against Gum Disease
Periodontal Care
If you’re experiencing bleeding, swelling, or discoloration in your gums, you may be in need of gum disease treatment or periodontal care. The first step of periodontal care is a deep cleaning, which includes scaling and root planing. Plus, we take dental cleanings to the next level with a dental laser treatment to kill bacteria found underneath the gum-line for the most effective care. Dr. Shaggy will remove bacteria from between your teeth and gums, and disinfect the roots of your teeth. When supplemented with antibiotics, this treatment can reverse or halt the progression of gum disease.
Get Peace of Mind
Oral Cancer Screenings
As part of every oral exam at our office, Dr. Shaggy will provide you with a comprehensive oral cancer screening using intraoral cameras. We’ll check for any potential signs of cancerous growth, giving you valuable peace of mind. Are you due for a checkup? Schedule an appointment with our team today!
