Periodontal Maintenance
If you’ve been diagnosed with periodontal disease and have undergone scaling and root planing for treatment, periodontal maintenance takes the place of typical cleanings in your dental visit routine.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a thin coating painted on the chewing surfaces of teeth to prevent decay. The sealant fills in and attaches to the grooves of the premolars and molars to act as a protective barrier for each tooth.
