Dental Checkups & Cleanings

Remember, even if you aren’t experiencing any abnormal dental symptoms, you need to schedule an appointment with us every six months. That way, we can address any problems that do arise, like tooth decay and gum disease, in the earliest stages. Not only does this eradicate the issue, but it also helps prevent the need for restorative care down the line. So, if it has been 6+ months since your last visit, now is the perfect time to get your next visit with your Glastonbury dentist on the calendar!

Customized Nightguards

When you wake up in the morning, does your jaw often feel sore? Do you have small cracks in your enamel? Does it feel like you’ve been clenching your teeth all night? If so, you might have Bruxism. While grinding/clenching your teeth while you sleep may seem harmless, it can actually lead to premature wear and increase your risk of dental damage. Don’t worry – we can have a custom nightguard made to prevent that from happening.

Fluoride Treatment

You’ve likely seen fluoride in your toothpaste or heard about it being in the public water supply. If you aren’t quite sure what it is, it’s a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen enamel. So, if you are prone to cavities (or you have a little one who is still learning how to brush and floss), we will likely recommend a fluoride treatment. When applied topically, it helps prevent cavities, keeping your smile in tip-top shape between now and your next visit.

Children's Dentistry

Remember, growing smiles need care too! Whether your little one is about to start preschool or they are heading into their last year of high school, we can provide essential preventive and restorative care to keep their smiles happy and healthy. We can also monitor the development of their wisdom teeth, continually reassess if braces are needed, and provide helpful feedback to reduce their risk of common oral health problems, like cavities.
