Dentistry Treatments Patients Love Most

Dental care professionals love improving their patients’ smiles. Dentistry treatments including professional teeth cleaning, polishing, teeth whitening, dentures, and dental implants help patients achieve beautiful, healthy smiles. These dentistry treatments are in demand and are delivering high rates of patient satisfaction.

Dental Cleaning and Polishing

Plaque bacteria and tartar buildup can cause dental erosion and impair the health of teeth. Each time a stain-causing food or drink is consumed plaque bacteria forms a rough surface on tooth enamel and can cause discoloration. Scheduling a professional teeth cleaning appointment with polishing can remove the plaque deposits causing dental discoloration.

Patients requiring a deep dental clean will benefit from gum scaling and root planing. Scaling removes plaque and tartar from gum pockets and the surface of teeth, while root planing removes plaque and tartar from the root surface and between teeth and gums. These dental treatments are also highly effective for treating periodontal disease.

Teeth Whitening

For stained or yellowed teeth, teeth whitening can make a big difference. Combat surface stains, prevent yellowing, and lighten teeth up to 4 shades in just 5 minutes with a professional dental whitening treatment. Our enamel-safe teeth whitening treatment provides long-lasting results for dazzling bright smiles.

Some over-the-counter teeth whitening products may cause tooth sensitivity or gum irritation. For dental implant patients or denture wearers, these products run the risk of scratching or causing abrasive discoloration. Contact our dental care team before trying any teeth whitening products. We’ll discuss a treatment strategy and recommended products to maintain a bright smile based on your unique oral health needs.

Dentures and Dental Implants

Dental patients looking to replace teeth can achieve dazzling smiles with full and partial dentures. Three Rivers Dental Group offers affordable dentures and partial styles, including our exclusive Comfy Fit brand. Whether you’re getting your first dentures or replacing an existing set, you’ll be delighted with the look, fit, function, and feel of dentures, along with the confidence they restore to get you smiling again.

Patients who have not had success with dentures could be great candidates for dental implants. Dental implants offer a permanent, natural-looking solution to replace missing teeth for healthier-looking smiles, improved chewing abilities, and dental function. They can also be used to support a bridge, eliminating the need for removable dentures. Since they are durable and natural-looking, they’re a popular choice for people who want to improve their smile.

Action Steps for Amazing Smiles

An amazing smile can be achieved. Stick to a daily oral health care routine for radiant teeth and see your dentist regularly for a dental exam, cleaning, and personalized dentistry treatment plan. At Three Rivers Dental Group, our experienced staff is trained to ensure each patient’s unique needs are addressed. We provide a relaxing, stress-free environment with a variety of soothing sedation dentistry options available for comfortable dental care.

Patients who are good candidates for sleep dentistry will be offered sedation options based on the type of appointment they have scheduled. When scheduling your dental appointment, discuss the level of fear or anxiety you typically experience during dental procedures. Our Patient Services Coordinator will then tailor an appropriate sedation plan for your visit based on your individual needs.
