Preventive Dentistry
Preventive care is the foundation of good dental health. During your visits, we will carefully examine each tooth with an innovative cavity-detecting laser called DIAGNOdent. We will also screen your soft tissues for oral cancer, a deadly disease, with a VELscope light. Digital X-rays and intraoral photos allow Dr. Just and our team to see all aspects of your mouth, including what lies beneath the surface. Our hygienist will assess your gums for periodontal disease and thoroughly, yet gently clean your teeth to remove plaque and food particles. She'll also polish your smile to a healthy shine.
We may suggest dental sealants to deter cavities on teeth that have deep grooves, or for children's teeth. If you suffer with halitosis, better known as bad breath, tell Dr. Just. We can suggest treatment for your condition so that you can enjoy fresh breath with confidence. If you grind your teeth or suffer from migraines and pain associated with misaligned jaw joints, Dr. Just may recommend a nightguard. For all of our athletic patients, we suggest a protective mouthguard, custom made to keep your smile safe while you're in the game.
After we review our findings and learn about your concerns and expectations, Dr. Just will provide a customized treatment plan designed to deliver the care you want and deserve. He will explain his recommendations with patient education, including brochures that you can take home and review. We will also be happy to recommend tips for your daily oral care routine so that your efforts are effective.
