Professional Cleaning
A clean smile is a healthy smile. Our professional cleaning service removes plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing can't reach. This process helps prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues. Our hygienists use gentle techniques to ensure your comfort while effectively cleaning your teeth.
Full Examination
During your checkup, Dr. Sommer will conduct a comprehensive examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth. This includes checking for signs of decay, gum disease, and other oral health issues. Dr. Sommer’s keen eye for detail ensures that no potential problem goes unnoticed.
Digital X-rays
Our state-of-the-art digital X-ray technology allows us to see what’s happening beneath the surface. These X-rays provide clear images of your teeth, bones, and soft tissues, helping us detect problems that aren't visible during a standard exam. Digital X-rays are faster and emit less radiation than traditional X-rays, ensuring your safety and comfort.
