Preventive Dentistry –Preserving your smile The best way to keep your teeth for life is to keep them healthy. Identifying minor problems early prevents serious problems from developing. That is why we allow plenty of time during every regular check up and hygienist visit for thorough examination and careful patient instruction.

Dr. Stein and his hygienists are meticulous in their desire to keep your teeth as clean and healthy as possible. They will carefully and patiently explain everything you need to know to ensure that you are confident about preserving your smile.

Periodontal/ Gum care: Supporting your smile Over 90% of the population show some signs of gum disease without even realizing it. This is because it is a silent problem and may go unrecognized by both patient and many dentists until the final stages. It is often said that you would not build a house unless the foundations were sound and this follows for teeth and is why we are so diligent in examining your periodontal health at every opportunity.

Dr. Stein and the hygienists make regular measurements of the health of your gums which enables them to monitor their future health. Regular visits to the hygienists and cleaning protects your teeth from unwanted accumulation of plaque, calculus and stain and regular oral hygiene instruction enables you to maintain this healthy state at home.

Restorative Care: Retrieving Your Smile The everyday rigors of life can often take their toll on teeth leading to fractures, decay, infection or even tooth loss. This does not mean you cannot still have long term dental health and although we endeavor to prevent and minimize these types of problems we strive to bring back a strong and healthy smile and encourage you to maintain it.
