Maintain Your Smile with Ease with Our Complete Preventive Dental Services

Keeping your teeth, mouth, and gums healthy starts with regular dental exams. Our dentists recommend visiting our office at least twice a year. By allowing our dentists and hygienists an opportunity to checkup on your oral health every 6-months, we can be on the lookout for potential problems or early signs that your smile may be at risk. General and preventive dental care are important for all ages, starting with children as young as 3 years old and continuing into adulthood.

Oral Cancer Screening

It may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you thing about a dental exam, but undergoing regular oral cancer screenings are critical to your health and wellbeing. With more than 40,000 cases diagnosed each year, oral and pharyngeal cancer pose significants risks, especially when not caught early.

Our staff is trained to detect the early signs of this fatal disease during a quick and painless exam at your checkup.

If you notice any red or white spots, sores that won't heal, lumps, pain, numbness, difficulty swallowing, or any abnormal symptoms, we encourage you to make an appointment for an oral cancer screening today.
Proper Oral Hygiene at Home
Regular dental checkups and teeth cleanings make up a large part of preventive dental care, but your at-home routine is equally as important! Twice daily brushing and flossing goes a long way towards maintaining the health and beauty of your smile in between dental visits.

Other recommended practices include:
- Use of ADA-approved fluoridated products
- Morning and Nighttime brushing
- Flossing, at minimum, once per day
- Use of an oral rinse containing peroxide to kill bacteria and whiten teeth
Professional Teeth Cleanings

Even with a strict at-home routine in place, your smile still benefits from bi-annual professional teeth cleanings. Our staff uses specialized dental cleaning tools and equipment to remove stubbon plaque and tartar build-up that cannot be removed with basic brushing and flossing alone.

Regular teeth cleanings also present the perfect time to conduct an oral cancer screening, take any necessary x-rays, and address issues early before they turn into uncomfortable and costly problems.

Children's General Dentistry Practice

Anyone can have anxiety about a trip to the dentist, but this can be especially true when it comes to children. Still & Reece Dentistry is a family dental practice well-versed in creating and maintaining an atmosphere that curbs any fear your child may have about spending time in the dentist's chair. We aim to foster a friendly, welcoming, and fun environment for all children, helping to provide positive reinforcement and assist children in forming healthy dental habits for years to come.
