Cleanings & Preventative Services
Regular home care, professional cleanings and regular exams can help you prevent
the development of serious dental problems that can require costly treatment. A professional
cleaning will remove plaque, tartar and stain to help you maintain a healthy smile.
A comprehensive dental examination will be performed by your dentist and will include:
- Oral Cancer Screening
- Soft Tissue Evaluation
- Extra-Oral and Intra-Oral exam
- Tooth Decay Evaluation
- Evaluation of x-rays
Restorative Services
- For damaged or decayed teeth, Farming ton Dental Center has many restorative dentistry
techniques to help you maintain a healthy and functional smile.
- Crowns are widely used to strengthen teeth after the treatment of large cavities
and/or root canal. They can be used to correct problems such as misaligned bite,
missing teeth and the grinding of teeth.
- Bonding can be used to correct cracks, spaces or as a filling after a cavity has
been removed.
- Root Canal Therapy is a dental procedure that may help you save a diseased tooth.
The dentists remove the pulp and then clean and seal off the root canal. A crown
is then places over the tooth to help make it stronger. Implants are used to replace
a missing tooth with a titanium root. A crown is placed on top of the root.
- Fixed Bridges can restore the function in your mouth and provide a more esthetic
look. Bridges are used to replace missing teeth. Crowns are placed adjacent to
the missing tooth or teeth connected with a porcelain replacement replicating the
missing tooth.
- Full/Partial Dentures is a removable replacement for missing teeth. Farmington Dental
Center has multiple denture options:
- Conventional Full Denture- made and placed in the patient’s mouth after all teeth
are removed and tissues have healed.
- Immediate Denture-Inserted as soon as teeth are removed.
- Partial Denture-Fills in the spaces created by missing teeth.
