CLEANINGS
Cleanings & prevention.
A partnership to protect your natural teeth and prevent dental disease.
A preventive dental program is a partnership between the patient, dentist, and dental team to protect natural teeth and supporting structures and prevent dental disease. Prevention begins at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet and continues in the dental office through regular exams, cleanings, X-rays, and preventive treatments like fluoride and sealants. Focusing on prevention helps avoid more serious and costly dental problems and supports a healthy, confident smile.

HOW WE TREAT IT
Two conservative solutions.
Therapeutic Botox®
When TMD is driven by overactive or tense muscles, small, targeted doses of Botox® are administered into the jaw and facial muscles (such as the masseter and temporalis). By gently relaxing these muscles, Botox® reduces the clenching force that strains the joint — easing jaw pain, tension headaches, and soreness. Treatment takes only a few minutes in the office, requires no downtime, and results typically last three to four months before a simple follow-up.​
Custom-fitted night guards
Many patients grind or clench their teeth during sleep (bruxism), placing constant stress on the jaw joint and wearing down teeth. We take precise impressions of your mouth to fabricate a custom night guard that fits comfortably and precisely. Worn while you sleep, it cushions the bite, holds the jaw in a relaxed position, and protects your teeth from grinding — relieving pressure on the joint and preventing further damage.
