Our dental office strives to give our patients the support and knowledge they need to prevent oral health problems from happening in the first place. Preventive care is a crucial cornerstone of what we provide, and we want you to be a fully informed partner when it comes to the needs of your oral health. By coming to your semiannual dental checkups and teeth cleanings in Leesburg, VA, you’ll ensure that your smile stays healthy and strong for many years to come.
It’s important to have the full picture when searching for potential oral health problems. Your checkup may include taking digital X-rays via bitewings or a Panorex so that we can detect decay, bone loss, and other issues that would be hard to find with a simple visual inspection.
Depending on the state of your oral health, we might recommend treatment beyond routine checkups and cleanings. For example, children and certain adults might benefit from fluoride treatment to strengthen their teeth and protect them from cavities. In other cases, patients with sore jaws or worn-down teeth could be suffering from bruxism – a condition where you grind your teeth at night – which we can help treat by giving you a custom nightguard.
Our dentists have extensive training and years of experience that help them easily spot even the earliest indications of a dental problem. By addressing it sooner rather than later, you avoid feeling severe pain or having your smile damaged by decay or infection. Even if you vigilantly take care of your teeth with daily brushing and flossing, as you should, there are likely areas that accumulate plaque over time. Once plaque calcifies, you need professional help to remove it, and that’s where our team at Downtown Family Dental of Leesburg comes in!
