Dental Checkups & Cleanings

Six-month professional dental checkups and cleanings are effective in helping you avoid restorative and emergency services. Our team will use our intraoral camera and digital X-rays to capture images of your smile before clearing away harmful cavity-causing bacteria. We will also conduct an oral cancer screening to ensure any abnormal growths are detected early on. Our close attention to detail does not stop once the appointment is over, though, as we will offer tips you can use at home to refine your oral hygiene routine.

Fluoride Treatment

Additional fluoride treatment can be provided to children and adults who are prone to developing cavities. Its natural ingredients prevent tooth decay and strengthen enamel so that teeth remain protected year-round. Although you and your family may use fluoridated toothpaste and drink tap water, you may still lack the necessary amount to properly safeguard your smiles. By applying fluoride to the surfaces of your teeth, you’ll enjoy a healthier, cavity-free smile.

Nightguards for Bruxism

Bruxism is the clinical term for teeth grinding. Some of its earliest symptoms include worn-down tooth enamel and excessive jaw pain. Frequent headaches can also occur. Without effective treatment, problems with TMJ or tooth sensitivity can become a reality. With a customized nightguard from our dental office, we can protect your teeth from touching while you sleep as well as alleviate any pressure or tension felt by your temporomandibular joints (TMJs).

Sleep Apnea Treatment

Chronic fatigue caused by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can make it difficult to function day after day; however, with sleep apnea treatment from Dr. Tran, he can develop a customized oral appliance to make breathing and sleeping easier. Worn at night, the device shifts the jaw forward slightly so that the airway does not become obstructed. It is fabricated based on impressions taken of your smile, so you can enjoy a more comfortable way to get the rest you need compared to a CPAP.
