Cosmetic Dentistry in Encinitas
Report
Clear braces for most adults and some children can help achieve straighter teeth without the obvious appearance of traditional braces. The Clear Correct process involves scanning all of your teeth with an OmniCam, followed by the fabrication of clear retainers to be worn according to the instruction of your dentist or orthodontist.
Preventative Dentistry in Encinitas
Report
It is recommended to perform professional teeth cleanings every six months. A standard dental cleaning procedure will remove any plaque or tartar buildup between teeth or near your gum line. Your dental hygienist will scale, polish, and floss each tooth. Then the dentist will conduct a comprehensive exam.
2D and 3D Dental X-Rays in Encinitas
Report
Routine 2D( periapical and bitewing) x-rays are recommended once per year to evaluate the teeth and need to be done before dental services are rendered. Once every 5 years, a 3D(cone beam) is recommended to evaluate the teeth and everything surrounding the teeth. Dental x-rays are safe for the patient and can be taken directly from the inside of the mouth(intra-oral x-ray) or from the outside of the mouth (extra-oral x-ray).
Sealants and Fluoride in Encinitas
Report
Different dental materials can be used to extend the longevity of your teeth. A dental sealant involves coating the grooves of your molars with a fine resin layer to prevent cavities from forming. Your dentist can offer you a fluoride varnish for further cavity protection. Your child's teeth should get a fluoride varnish as soon as their teeth erupt, but sealants should be applied when the molars erupt around 6 and 12 years of age.
