Complete Dental Care from A to Z

Extend the natural life of your teeth and maintain good oral health with routine dental care. Regular visits to your dentist and addressing decay at the first sign can save you from pain, discomfort, and unexpected expenses. If your teeth, gums, or oral health are causing problems, restorative care will get you back on track and restore comfort. General dentistry focuses on your overall health. Here’s what you can expect from preventative and restorative care:

Preventative Care:
  • Super clean teeth that look whiter without the need for whitening treatments
  • X rays that identify problems early when they are easier to treat
  • Healthy gums that do not itch or bleed
  • Composite fillings that stop cavities before they spread
  • Less sensitivity from hot and cold foods
  • Prevention and reversal of tooth decay
  • Extended life of prosthetics and appliances
Restorative Dentistry:
  • Save your natural tooth from infection
  • Replace missing teeth with natural looking solutions
  • Repair damaged teeth to their original condition
  • Custom made prosthetics and appliances
  • Eat more comfortably, sleep better, and enjoy an improved quality of life

Our General Dentistry services

Composite Fillings

Tooth colored fillings are used to treat cavities before they cause permanent damage to your teeth. These natural looking restorations are made to match your existing tooth color, so they blend in beautifully and feel completely natural.

Dental Bonding

Restore chips and cracked teeth or improve the look of healthy teeth.

Dental Bridges

Restore gaps and replace your tooth or teeth with a custom made dental prosthesis permanently bonded in place.

Dental Crowns

Dental crowns play a crucial role in restorative dentistry and can significantly improve the strength, appearance, and longevity of your teeth.

Dental Extractions

Having a tooth or teeth removed is a common procedure that can be done with very little pain or discomfort.

Dental Implants

An implant acts like a natural tooth root and is completed with a restoration, such as a dental crown, to restore the function of your teeth, look great, and feel natural.

Dentures

Get new dentures or maintain and repair your full or partial dentures. These modern dental prostheses can replace several or all of your teeth with minimal discomfort.

Root Canal

Root canals can be careful, quick, and relatively pain-free, providing immediate relief and saving your natural tooth.

Snap-In Dentures

Snap-in dentures are a type of implant supported prosthesis that securely snap onto dental implants placed in your jawbone.

Teeth Cleanings

Regular checkups and cleanings prevent gum disease and tooth decay. Plan your cleaning and checkup every six to eight months to prevent the sudden onset of dental pain and unexpected expenses.

The Importance of Early Intervention and Routine Care

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. We truly want to see you smile. Your health is our top priority, and our routine care and early intervention recommendations are made with care and concern. Keeping your teeth, gums, jaw, and tongue healthy today and repairing problems when they first appear will lead to less discomfort, less pain, and fewer unexpected expenses. That is what keeps our patients smiling.

Keep Your Natural Teeth for Longer

Did you know that cavities are the most common cause of tooth loss in young adults, while gum disease is the main cause for older adults? Practicing good oral hygiene at home is key to keeping your mouth strong and healthy. At your routine exam, we can detect the earliest signs of gum disease and tooth decay and take action before they worsen.

Save Your Money

Routine teeth cleanings and exams are affordable and predictable, making them easy to fit into your budget. Treatments for early tooth decay, such as composite fillings, are also low cost and offer great long term value. On the other hand, more advanced procedures to fix serious dental issues often come with a higher price tag.

Don’t Even Think About It

One of the best things about good oral health is that you don’t have to think about it. There are no aches, no inflammation, no toothaches. You don’t have to worry about what to eat or feel self conscious about your smile. Well maintained teeth are naturally beautiful, comfortable, and reliable.

Contact us today

to schedule an initial consultation & exam.

Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.

Frequently Asked Questions

A routine check up includes a teeth cleaning and an exam. Regular cleanings remove plaque and tartar that build up despite regular brushing and flossing. During the exam, the dental team will monitor your oral health, paying special attention to problem areas.

Food particles left on your teeth, especially in hard to reach places, become food for the bacteria in your mouth. The bacteria multiply and produce acid that weakens your tooth enamel. Tooth decay can be made worse by sugary or acidic foods and drinks like coffee or soda.

Some people are more prone to cavities due to genetics. For example, some may be born with teeth that are more susceptible to cavity causing bacteria or have crowded teeth that are harder to clean. The best thing you can do is focus on great oral hygiene and healthy eating habits to reduce your risk.

Yes. Fillings prevent further tooth decay and protect against future pain. It’s best to address the problem while it is still small and manageable.

Tooth decay can sometimes be prevented or even reversed with routine cleanings. Teeth showing early signs of decay can be treated with fluoride and composite fillings. If a tooth becomes infected, it can be saved with a root canal. Badly decayed teeth can be capped with a beautiful, natural looking dental crown or resurfaced with dental veneers. In severe cases, when teeth are too decayed, extraction may be necessary, but the function of your bite and smile can be restored with an implant or bridge. Many treatment options are available, depending on your situation.

Preventive teeth cleaning and routine exams are encouraged and completely safe during pregnancy. The goal is to prevent oral infections and treat dental issues that sometimes occur during pregnancy. In the case of a dental emergency, like an infection, more invasive procedures, such as a root canal, may be required. Elective procedures like teeth whitening should be postponed until after the baby arrives.

I have been a patient of Dr Teerlink at Brush dental for years. I have always appreciated his honesty, integrity, and in his dental work and skill as a dentist. My experience during my last appointment at Brush dental was fantastic! The gals at the front desk, Kim, Janessa, and Cybil were so friendly and helpful! Their new Hygienist, Sam, did an amazing job cleaning my teeth. She was very thorough and at the same time very gentle - my cleaning was absolutely pain-free! Sam is very friendly and nice and I really enjoyed visiting with her and getting to know her.
