Comprehensive Family Dental Care: Keeping Your Smile Bright
A bright and healthy smile is one of the best assets anyone can have. Family dental care is the cornerstone for maintaining good oral health across every stage of your family members’ lives. Dr. Brianna Rafetto and her team will ensure that everyone in your family receives personalized attention to keep their smiles healthy and beautiful. From preventative dental care to restoration and family dental care, we can address all of your dental problems.
What Is Preventative Dental Care?
Preventative dental care begins at home with healthy oral hygiene habits. However, visiting a dentist every six months is also crucial to preventing dental problems before they start. Preventative dental care might include sealants and fluoride treatments to help prevent cavities. The dental care team at Dr. Rafetto’s office will also educate patients, especially children, on how to develop a good oral care routine at home.
How Often Should I Have Routine Dental Checkups and Professional Teeth Cleaning?
Dr. Rafetto recommends that individuals visit her office every six months for a checkup and professional dental cleaning. During the checkup, Dr. Rafetto and her team will conduct a thorough examination and take X-rays to check for cavities, gum disease, loose fillings, and any other dental problems. Professional cleaning will remove plaque and tartar buildup in places where brushing and flossing are unable to reach.
How Can Clear Aligners Straighten My Teeth?
Many teens need orthodontics to straighten their teeth, but more adults than ever are investing in themselves to achieve what they didn’t get when they were younger. Dr. Rafetto can help you or your teen get the straight smile of your dreams with clear aligner technology. Dr. Rafetto uses Spark aligners, which are designed to be more clear, more comfortable and stain less than the leading aligner brand.
Can Restorative Dentistry Save My Tooth?
If someone in your family has a cavity or broken tooth, it can be saved if it’s addressed in time. For cavities, a tooth-colored filling can be used. Crowns can also be used to strengthen a weak tooth. Infected or inflamed teeth may need a root canal so the tooth can be saved.
What Procedures Are Included in Cosmetic Dentistry?
Cosmetic dentistry focuses on beautifying your smile. Procedures or treatments can fix issues like discoloration, uneven teeth, or small gaps.
What Are My Options if I’m Missing One or More Teeth?
When you’re missing one or more teeth, it has a huge impact on both your appearance and your functionality. Fortunately, Dr. Rafetto offers several options for tooth replacement. A dental implant is an excellent option if you’re missing just one tooth. Patients missing most or all of their teeth can opt for bridges or dentures.
