General Dentistry

Treatments that you can trust

At Admire Dental, we do our utmost to help patients keep their whole, healthy smile for life. In the past, patients only visited the dentist if they experienced toothache, decay, or damage, but in keeping with the American Dental Association recommendations, we encourage patients to visit our office two times each year to prevent common oral health issues. Contact our team to schedule a dental checkup for you and your family. We offer evening and weekend appointments to fit into even the busiest schedules.

CHECKUPS & CLEANINGS

Dental checkups and cleaning are essential for maintaining healthy teeth and gums as well as identifying dental issues before they progress. We provide thorough dental checkups and cleaning for kids and adults in a comfortable setting staffed by knowledgeable and friendly professionals. Our full checkup of your dental health includes looking for cavities, gingivitis and tooth damage while removing any plaque or tartar and polishing your teeth for greater oral comfort and health. We recommend a dental cleaning and checkup once every six months to prevent tooth decay, gum decay and ensure a lasting, beautiful smile.

TOOTH FILLINGS

Over time, teeth can develop cavities, which are small holes in their enamel and structure. Cavities are caused by bacteria and plaque, and if left untreated, can result in further tooth decay and even tooth loss. A tooth may also be damaged and have chips or cracks resulting from impact or injury, which should always be addressed to prevent further deterioration or tooth loss. Tooth fillings are an important dental procedure designed to preserve the structure of a tooth damaged by cavities, impact and injury. Using a durable composite filling uniquely-shaded to blend with your smile, we can restore and protect the structure of your tooth in just a single visit.

Tooth Extraction

A tooth extraction may be necessary in the case of advanced tooth decay or gum disease, impacted wisdom teeth or those growing improperly, and teeth that are otherwise damaged beyond repair. With tooth extractions, you can remove the problematic tooth and create space for a healthier and more cosmetically-pleasing restorative option such as a dental implant or bridge. At Admire Dental, we focus on providing a gentle and painless tooth extraction to ensure optimal dental health and the freedom to enjoy the amazing benefits of restorative dentistry.

DENTAL SEALANTS

Sealants are an efficient and effective way to prevent tooth decay, protecting teeth from plaque and tartar buildup and keeping smiles whole and healthy. Many cavities occur because bacteria accumulates in the tiny grooves and crevices of teeth. Unable to remove this bacteria with even a single toothbrush bristle, plaque accumulates in these minute pits and fissures. Sealants fill these gaps with a clear, protective coat that prevents bacteria and plaque from weakening tooth enamel causing decay.

NIGHTGUARDS FOR BRUXISM

Unconscious teeth grinding and clenching, known as bruxism, may have a number of causes. Most patients experience teeth grinding while they sleep making it a difficult habit to break. Our skilled team offers a simple, effective solution – nightguards. These custom crafted oral appliances offer a two-fold treatment. First, they shift the jaw into its ideal alignment limiting the shifting of the jaw to achieve a more comfortable position, and then, mouthguards place a physical barrier between teeth to prevent wear from teeth grinding and clenching.

ORAL CANCER SCREENING

Oral cancer claims the life of one patient in the US every hour on average, and of those diagnosed this year, only about 50% will live five years beyond diagnosis. According to the work of researchers at the Oral Cancer Foundation, the best way to improve these statistics is to diagnose oral cancer in earlier stages. That’s why we include fast, effective screenings for oral cancer as an integral part of checkups at Admire Dental.

FLUORIDE TREATMENT

A topical fluoride treatment is just one of the many general dentistry services we offer to strengthen teeth. As dental structures develop, patients need to ingest fluoride in order to form strong, healthy teeth, but once teeth have emerged, topical fluoride is the only way to continue to fortify tooth enamel to prevent decay and other dental damage. Professional fluoride treatments can be easily applied as part of any six month dental checkup at Admire Dental. We often recommend this service for young patients who are still learning to care for their teeth, but fluoride treatments are beneficial for patients of any age who struggle with frequent tooth decay.

I can honestly say I have NEVER met a nicer dentist. The rooms have TV and headphones to watch Netflix or listen to Pandora. Very clean. The dentist and hygienists have a great relationship while caring for you. I've already recommended all my family to them.
