Dental Checkups & Cleanings
Dental checkups and cleanings every six months can give your smile the care and attention it needs to remain healthy year-round. While practicing good oral hygiene at home is important, we have the instruments and technology to remove stubborn plaque and tartar while also checking for cavities, infection, gum disease, and damage.
Oral Cancer Screenings
An oral cancer screening is a preventive solution that can ultimately save your life. Dr. A relies on VELscope®. Using this technology allows us to identify concerning areas that would normally be invisible to the naked eye. This leads to early detection and increases the chances of successful treatment.
Scaling & Root Planing
As a form of gum disease treatment, this two-part process removes accumulated plaque and tartar from the roots of the teeth and around the gumline to directly address the source of infection. By gently clearing harmful bacteria and smoothing the roots of your teeth, we can encourage the gums to heal over time while also reducing the risk of reinfection.
Nightguards for Bruxism
When bruxism (teeth grinding) erodes tooth enamel and increases the risk of TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder, we can provide a uniquely crafted nightguard that fits your upper row of teeth. This prevents your arches from touching and relieves any tension within your jaw.
Children’s Dentistry
Dr. A enjoys treating young patients, ensuring they enjoy a healthy smile through each stage of life while forming a positive relationship with dentistry. In our Friendswood office, he is pleased to provide dental checkups and cleanings, dental sealants, silver diamine fluoride (SDF), and pulp treatment. Along with these services, children can expect a fun and caring dentist who always puts them first.
