Helping You Maintain Good Oral Hygiene
Good oral health is essential for your well-being. Proper brushing, flossing, and other preventive care should be a part of your daily routine. You also need to regularly visit a dentist to check if your teeth and gums are healthy. This will help prevent dental problems from developing over time.
When you need to see a dentist, call
Hillsdale Smiles Family Dentistry to schedule an appointment. We're focused on patient care and can help you achieve better oral health through cleanings, oral exams, and radiographs.
Steps to Reduce the Risk of Dental Problems
- Brush your teeth twice a day and floss daily
- Eat a balanced diet
- Ensure children under 12 drink fluoridated water or take a fluoride supplement if your water does not contain fluoride
- Visit your dentist for cleanings and oral exams
- Replace your toothbrush every 3-4 months
- Use fluoridated dental products
- Use a mouth rinse if recommended by your dentist
General Dentistry Services We Offer
At Hillsdale Smiles PLLC, we go above and beyond to ensure that you feel comfortable during every visit. You can contact us during office hours if you're experiencing a bad toothache or any other dental emergency. We offer a broad range of services such as:
- Fillings - If you have a decaying tooth, a filling can help prevent further decay by closing off any cracks or spaces where bacteria can enter. When the decay reaches the nerve, a root canal procedure or pulp capping is recommended.
- Crowns - If you have damaged or missing teeth, crowns, also known as caps, can be used. Some of the other instances where crowns can be used are:
- To attach a bridge
- To restore a fractured tooth
- To replace a large filling
- To cover a dental implant, a discolored tooth, or a tooth that has had root canal treatment
- To protect weak teeth from fracturing
- Bridges - If you have any gaps between missing teeth, a bridge can be cemented in place. We typically use gold alloys, porcelain bonded to metal alloy, or ceramic material made to match your natural tooth color.
- Implants - If you're missing any teeth as a result of an injury or periodontal disease, a dental implant is a good option. They are stronger than natural teeth and last 10-20 years.
- Veneers - If you want to improve the appearance of your teeth, we can attach thin, tooth-colored shells to the front surface of your teeth.
- Teeth Whitening - If your teeth are stained or discolored, teeth whitening can help brighten them. We offer both at-home tray whitening and in-office whitening at our dental clinic.
