Dental Checkups & Teeth Cleanings
The American Dental Association, along with our team at 360 Dental Lounge, recommends visiting your dentist every six months for routine dental checkups and teeth cleanings to maintain the health of your teeth and gums. These visits are comprised of thorough examinations of your mouth, X-rays (if necessary), and oral cancer screenings. We’ll also inform you if we spot any signs of lingering oral health problems and develop a treatment plan to address them. Finally, before you leave, you’ll receive a thorough cleaning from our dental hygienist to keep your smile feeling fresh until your next visit.
Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease is one of the most common oral health problems, estimated to impact one out of every two adults in the United States. Some common signs of this condition include bleeding and inflamed gums, gum recession that makes your teeth appear longer, and pockets forming between the teeth and gums. If you notice any of these symptoms, call us today to schedule a periodontal evaluation and treatment. We offer high-tech, effective laser periodontal therapy to keep your condition from progressing and leading to worsening oral health concerns, like tooth loss.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride is a naturally derived mineral that’s produced by rocks and found in the air, soil, and even fruits and vegetables. It’s most commonly known to be added to community water sources and oral hygiene products like toothpaste and whitening gels to help fortify tooth enamel, which is the outermost layer of teeth known for protecting against decay. If you’re not receiving enough fluoride in your daily diet, we can supplement it with a fast and easy fluoride gel after your next routine dental cleaning.
Nightguards for Bruxism
Do you wake up with a sore jaw? Have you noticed that your molars appear ground-down and flatter? These are two of the most common signs that you grind and clench your teeth as you sleep, also known as bruxism. To prevent damage to your smile, like cracked and worn teeth, we can craft a customized nightguard that will cushion your jaw joints and teeth from strain, pressure, and force caused by your condition.
