Dental Checkups & Cleanings
Even with the best brushing and flossing routine, you’re still vulnerable to the most common oral health problems. That’s why routine dental cleanings are essential for every patient. To enjoy optimal oral health, please visit our Ridgefield practice every six months for treatment. During your visit, we can clean your teeth and evaluate your smile for any problems that need to be treated. Our goal, as a preventive dental practice, is to nip any developing issue in the bud as quickly and conservatively as possible.
Oral Cancer Screenings
It’s estimated that one person loses their life each hour in the United States to oral cancer. We don’t want you to become a statistic, so we offer oral cancer screenings during your twice-annual dental exams. Using OralID – an advanced, noninvasive method used to check for abnormalities associated with oral cancer, we can detect early signs and ensure you get the help you need to address the issue and keep living a healthier life.
