faqs
How often should I get a dental check-up?
We recommend every six months, or more frequently for patients with gum disease or ongoing dental concerns.
Are dental X-rays safe?
Yes. We use digital X-rays that emit significantly less radiation than traditional film and allow for earlier, more accurate diagnosis.
Is fluoride treatment necessary for adults?
Yes — especially for those with sensitivity, dry mouth, or a high risk of decay.
What’s the best way to prevent gum disease?
Consistent oral hygiene, regular cleanings, and early detection are key. We’ll assess your gum health at every visit.
Do you treat children and seniors?
Absolutely. We welcome patients of all ages and tailor care to every life stage.

Guided Biofilm Therapy
with AIRFLOW®
As a certified provider of Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT), we use the AIRFLOW® Prophylaxis Master — a state-of-the-art system that removes plaque, biofilm, and stains gently and effectively.
GBT allows us to perform cleanings with greater comfort and precision, using a warm stream of air, water, and fine powder — often eliminating the need for traditional scraping. It’s ideal for patients with sensitivity, braces, implants, or periodontal concerns.
