Our comprehensive preventive services are designed to protect your family's smiles and include:
Comprehensive Preventive Exams
Regular dental check-ups are essential for early detection and prevention. At Park Ridge Smile Center, our thorough examinations allow us to monitor your oral health, identify any potential issues in their early stages, and create a personalized plan to keep your smile healthy.
Prophylactic Cleanings
Our skilled hygienists provide gentle yet thorough cleanings to remove plaque and tartar buildup, even in those hard-to-reach areas. Regular professional cleanings are crucial for preventing cavities, gum disease, and maintaining fresh breath.
Diagnostic X-rays
Utilizing advanced, low-radiation digital X-rays, we can gain valuable insights into areas not visible during a regular examination. These images help us detect decay, bone loss, and other underlying issues, allowing for timely intervention.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Your overall health is our priority. During your regular preventive check-ups, we conduct thorough oral cancer screenings to detect any suspicious areas early, when treatment is most effective.
Protective Appliances: Athletic Mouthguards
We also offer custom-fitted appliances to protect your teeth, including athletic mouthguards and custom-fitted TMJ night guards. Our custom-made athletic mouthguards are essential for protecting teeth and preventing injuries during sports activities.
Mouth Guards for Bruxism
Helping to alleviate the harmful effects of teeth grinding and clenching, such as jaw pain and tooth damage.
