IN-DEPTH DENTAL CHECKUP
Your regular dental checkup will be as comprehensive as possible involving capturing diagnostic x-rays and photos, completing visual and manual examinations, charting periodontal depth for early indication of gum disease, screening for oral cancer, and more. Once we’ve created a full picture of your oral health needs, Dr. Beard can work with you to create the perfect, personalized treatment plan. We use the digital x-rays and images to help patients understand areas of concern and visualize their potential treatments. Dr. Beard will be happy to answer your questions at any time, so please don’t hesitate to ask. If you ever have any specific concerns, please let us know at the beginning of your appointment. It’s important for us to understand any issues you’ve noticed in order to make accurate diagnosis of oral health issues in the earliest stages.
REVITALIZING DENTAL HYGIENE
Plaque is a sticky, colorless substance that’s constantly forming over teeth, threatening decay. While routine brushing and flossing can get rid of it, missed areas quickly develop into hard deposits known as tartar or calculus that won’t budge quite so easily. At Fremaux Dental Care, your professional teeth cleaning will clear away all of this plaque and tartar buildup leaving your smile feeling polished and refreshed.
Our skilled and knowledgeable dental hygienists are also happy to help you improve your at-home oral hygiene routine. We’ll walk you through the best brushing and flossing techniques, help you choose the right products, and answer all of your questions. If you’re showing signs of gum disease or experience chronic tooth decay, one of our hygienists will work with you to ensure you’re doing everything you can to care for your smile and improve your oral health.
