PREVENTION BASED DENTAL EXAMS & CHECK-UPS

Routine dental exams and professional cleanings are one of the cornerstones of good oral health. These appointments are not just for identifying concerns but also for preventing potential problems through preventative intervention.


During your dental checkup, Dr. McPherson will examine your teeth, gums, and mouth to look for common issues such as decay, gum disease, or oral cancer. Early detection is key to successful treatment.


Our team of dental hygienists will meticulously clean your teeth to remove plaque and tartar buildup, helping to prevent cavities and gum disease. When needed, we will also use advanced digital X-rays to gain a comprehensive view of your oral anatomy, ensuring that no hidden issues go unnoticed.



Based on your findings, we will work to create a customized oral health plan. This plan may include restorative treatments, lifestyle or diet recommendations, and tips for maintaining your smile between visits.

PERIODONTAL DISEASE: KNOW THE SIGNS

Active gum disease typically presents itself as swollen, red, bleeding, or receding gumlines. Heavy tartar buildup is also common. Left untreated, periodontal infections strain your immune system, placing you at a greater risk of major medical concerns (such as heart attack and stroke.) We offer non-surgical periodontal therapy to help stop the cycle of tooth loss and restore your smile back to a healthy state.
