Oral Exams & X-Rays
At Dr. Frances Ross Dental Clinic, we believe that a comprehensive oral exam is the cornerstone of good dental health. During your oral exam, our experienced dentists will thoroughly inspect your teeth, gums, and mouth for any signs of decay, disease, or abnormalities. We utilize the latest technology to ensure that no detail is overlooked. Regular oral exams allow us to catch potential problems early, making treatment simpler and more effective.
X-rays are a crucial part of our diagnostic process. They provide a detailed view of areas not visible to the naked eye, such as the roots of teeth, jawbone, and underlying structures. By using advanced digital X-ray technology, we can detect cavities, infections, bone loss, and other issues with greater accuracy and less radiation exposure. This ensures that you receive the safest and most effective care possible at Dr. Frances Ross Dental Clinic.
Dental Cleanings
Dental cleanings are essential for maintaining optimal oral health. At Dr. Frances Ross Dental Clinic, our skilled hygienists perform thorough cleanings to remove plaque, tartar, and stains from your teeth. Regular cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues. We recommend scheduling a cleaning at least twice a year to keep your smile bright and healthy.
During your cleaning, we also provide personalized advice on how to maintain your oral hygiene at home. This includes tips on proper brushing and flossing techniques, as well as recommendations for dental products. Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge and tools you need to take control of your oral health and prevent problems before they start.
Composite Fillings
Composite fillings are a popular choice for restoring teeth damaged by decay. At Dr. Frances Ross Dental Clinic, we use high-quality composite resin to fill cavities and repair minor chips and cracks. This material is not only durable but also blends seamlessly with the natural color of your teeth, providing a more aesthetically pleasing result compared to traditional metal fillings.
The process of getting a composite filling is straightforward and typically completed in one visit. Our dentists will first remove the decayed portion of the tooth and then carefully apply the composite resin in layers. Each layer is hardened with a special light before the final shaping and polishing. The result is a strong, natural-looking restoration that helps protect your tooth and restore its function.
