Regular visits are essential for maintaining optimal oral health. Our team uses advanced diagnostic tools to ensure thorough examinations and cleanings. In general, the American Dental Association (ADA) recommends routine dental cleanings be performed every 6 months, but Dr. Trevino may advise a different treatment plan based on your specific oral health needs. While routine cleanings are typically performed with a fluoride prophy paste, at Dr. Trevino we also offer dental cleanings with fluoride-free prophy paste based on the individual preferences of our valued patients.
Periodontal deep cleanings, or scaling and root planing, are specialized treatments designed to combat the onset and progression of gum disease by thoroughly cleaning below the gumline and smoothing the tooth roots. This essential procedure not only helps halt the advancement of periodontal disease but also sets the foundation for healthier gums and a stronger oral health regimen.
Perio maintenance is a specialized cleaning procedure designed for patients who have undergone treatment for periodontal (gum) disease, helping to prevent its recurrence by meticulously cleaning the pockets around teeth and below the gumline. This ongoing care is crucial for maintaining gum health and ensuring the longevity of your teeth.
Dental sealants offer a protective shield over the grooves of your back teeth, preventing decay by keeping out plaque and food. This quick and painless procedure is an effective preventive measure for children and adults alike.
Fluoride treatments strengthen teeth and prevent cavities by replenishing essential minerals to the enamel, while non-fluoride options are available for those seeking alternative preventive measures. Both treatments are key components in maintaining long-term dental health for patients of all ages.
Early detection is key to successful treatment. We conduct thorough screenings as part of our routine check-ups.
CEREC technology revolutionizes the way we approach dental restorations, allowing us to design, create, and place ceramic crowns all within a single appointment. This innovative system uses precise digital imaging to capture a detailed 3D model of your tooth, eliminating the need for uncomfortable impressions. The result is a durable, aesthetically pleasing crown that matches your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless restoration of your smile with minimal disruption to your busy life.
Dental implants offer a permanent solution for missing teeth, providing a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. They are surgically placed into the jawbone (guided by 3D imaging), where they fuse with the bone to provide stable support for artificial teeth, enhancing both oral functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Composite fillings are tooth-colored restorations that not only repair cavities but also blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, preserving your smile's aesthetic. Made from durable resin, they bond directly to the tooth, restoring its shape and function while providing resistance against fracture. Composite fillings do not contain mercury and are a modern alternative to traditional amalgam (silver) fillings, making them an excellent choice for those who prioritize health and appearance.
Dentures and partial dentures are custom-made replacements for missing teeth, restoring not only the function of your mouth but also its appearance. Full dentures are used when all natural teeth are missing, while partial dentures are ideal for filling in gaps when some natural teeth remain. These solutions can enhance chewing ability, speech, and provide a natural-looking smile.
Root canal therapy is a treatment used to repair and save a tooth that is badly decayed or infected. This procedure involves removing the damaged area of the tooth (the pulp), cleaning and disinfecting it, and then filling and sealing it. The process alleviates pain and can save the tooth from extraction, preserving your natural smile.
Our iTero scanner allows for highly accurate digital impressions, eliminating the need for uncomfortable traditional molds and improving the patient experience.
