Professional Cleanings
Oral health is a multifaceted journey, and regular professional cleanings form its bedrock. At Bladen Family Smiles, we understand that even the most diligent home care can sometimes miss the stubborn build-ups. This is where our seasoned hygienists step in. With a gentle touch combined with state-of-the-art techniques, they meticulously tackle plaque and tartar, often the culprits behind tooth decay and gum disease. Every contour and crevice of your teeth is attended to, ensuring bacteria have no hiding place.
Beyond the immediate brilliance and smoothness you’ll feel post-cleaning, there’s another layer of benefit. During the cleaning process, our team has the opportunity to spot early signs of potential problems. Whether it’s the initial onset of gum inflammation, minor tooth wear, or tiny cavities, catching them at this stage often translates to simpler, more cost-effective solutions and less discomfort down the road.
Exams & X-Rays
Dentistry isn’t just about addressing issues; it’s about understanding the complete story of your oral health. A comprehensive dental examination at Bladen Family Smiles does just that. It offers insights that go beyond the surface, painting a holistic picture of your dental well-being. Our experts don’t just look at the teeth; they assess the health of your gums, check the alignment of your bite, and evaluate the overall condition of your mouth, ensuring every aspect gets the attention it deserves.
While the tactile and visual exam is fundamental, the true depths of your oral narrative often lie hidden beneath. This is where our modern x-ray technology steps in. X-rays are an indispensable tool, allowing us to see what the naked eye cannot. Whether it’s the onset of decay lurking between teeth, the status of your jawbone, or a wisdom tooth waiting to emerge, our high-resolution imaging ensures nothing escapes our notice. The best part? With the latest technology, it’s done with minimal radiation, ensuring your safety and peace of mind.
Proper Prevention At Home
While our team is here to provide the professional care your teeth need, daily home care is equally vital in maintaining oral health. Brushing and flossing effectively remove daily plaque buildup, keeping cavities and gum disease at bay.
Our team is passionate about patient education. We’re always happy to share the latest tips and techniques, from selecting the right toothbrush to mastering the art of flossing. With the right tools and knowledge, you can ensure your smile remains radiant between visits.
Emergency Care
Dental emergencies can be both uncomfortable and disconcerting. Whether it’s a broken tooth, sudden swelling, or an intense toothache, our team at Bladen Family Smiles stands ready to provide prompt and compassionate care.
You may need emergency dental care if you experience:
- Severe toothache or ongoing tooth pain
- Broken, chipped, or cracked teeth
- Knocked-out tooth
- Lost filling or crown
- Abscess or serious infection
- Severe injury to the mouth or jaw
- Uncontrolled bleeding from the gums
We understand that time is of the essence in emergencies. Our clinic is equipped to handle a range of urgent dental concerns, ensuring you get relief and expert care when you need it most. If you face a dental emergency, please don’t hesitate to contact us immediately.
