Our friendly team is here to ensure every visit is comfortable, too, so you always feel well-taken care of. We look forward to being a part of your family’s journey to great oral health. Here’s more about what we offer at our clinic.
Our Comprehensive Family Dentistry Services
Whether you want to transform your smile or just maintain your dental health, you’ve come to the right place. Our Palos Heights family dentistry clinic offers a full range of care services for all ages.
Preventative Care and Education
Preventative care is at the heart of all we do at our dental clinic. We believe that lifelong dental health is not just about treating issues as they arise but also about preventing them from happening in the first place.
Our preventative care services include:
- Dental exams: Our dentists complete dental exams to check the health of your teeth and gums. We can catch and address potential issues early on through this process.
- Teeth cleanings: Our teeth cleaning services remove plaque and tartar building, effectively preventing tooth decay and gum disease. It’s how to keep your teeth feeling their best always.
- Fluoride treatments: We offer fluoride treatments to all our patients. Applying fluoride to your teeth helps strengthen the enamel, making them more decay-resistant.
- Dental sealants: We can protect your molars and pre-molars from decay by applying dental sealants to the bite surface. This protective coating keeps food debris and bacteria from sitting in the crevices, causing big problems over time.
- Mouthguards: Our custom mouthguards fit perfectly to protect your teeth from damage while playing sports or if you grind your teeth at night. They’re an excellent investment in your dental health.
We’re also here to help you learn how to best care for your teeth at home. Our team can provide personalized advice on brushing and flossing techniques, making good nutrition choices, and tips for how to avoid common dental problems.
Restorative Dental Care Services
Are dental issues getting you down? Our skilled dentists are here to help you get your smile back on track. Even with preventative services and at-home care, sometimes your teeth and gums need a little extra support. That’s where our restorative dental care services come in. Our full range of treatments can fix minor to major issues, restoring your healthy, radiant smile.
Here’s a brief overview of what we offer at our clinic:
Fillings: Our team can resolve cavities and minor tooth decay with dental fillings. We gently remove the decay and fill the area to complete this process, bringing your tooth back to its normal function and appearance.
Root canals: An infection inside the tooth’s pulp threatens the health of the tooth and your overall well-being. With a root canal, it’s possible to save the tooth by cleaning the inside of the tooth and sealing it to prevent further damage.
Bridges: If you’re missing one or more teeth, bridges can help restore your smile. They span the space where the teeth are missing, attaching to your natural teeth or implants on either side.
Crowns: A crown might be a good choice if any of your teeth have extensive damage. Crowns cover and protect damaged teeth, effectively restoring their appearance and strength.
Dentures: Dentures offer a way to regain a complete set of teeth if you’re missing several or all of your natural teeth. They help with eating, speaking, and bringing back your beautiful smile.
Dental implants: If you want to replace one or more missing teeth, dental implants serve as a more permanent solution than dentures. This process involves replacing the tooth roots with metal posts designed to firmly hold artificial teeth in place.
Our team can provide the compassionate care you need regardless of your dental needs. We use the latest techniques and materials to ensure you get the best possible outcomes from every restorative dental care procedure.
Your Comfort and Peace of Mind is Our Top Priority
Our dental care team knows that visiting the dentist can be a source of anxiety for many. We aim to alleviate those fears by offering the highest quality of care in a welcoming, stress-free environment.
You can trust that we’ll always listen carefully to your concerns, answer your questions, and tailor our approach to suit your needs. Beyond that, we gently touch all treatments, from routine cleanings to more complex restorative procedures.
