Dentist Newport News, VA

Maintaining a proper schedule of preventive dentistry care can save you time, money, and discomfort.

Dental cleanings and exams ensure your teeth are kept free of plaque and tartar buildup that cause decay. In addition, these screenings can ensure early diagnosis and effective treatment of dental issues before they become more serious or complex.

Dental hygiene education is provided and reinforced to be certain that your home oral health practices are being completed regularly and effectively. This can help prevent tooth decay and preserve your healthy smile.

Dental sealants are highly effective in preventing tooth decay and cavities on your molars and premolars. These areas are the most susceptible to cavities due to the anatomized grooves.

Oral cancer screenings should be completed at least yearly. Early diagnosis has a profound impact on the success of treatment.
