Preventive Dentistry
We believe a visit to the dentist is more than an errand or something to check off your to-do list – rather, it’s a loving act of self-care.
Comprehensive Dental Exams
Every new patient at Novello Dental Care enjoys a comprehensive exam that goes beyond the tried-and-true cavities and gum disease check. Our comprehensive exam is a deep dive into all areas of oral health that relies just as heavily on input from each patient as what we see during the exam. Your dental health history, any areas that are causing you concern or discomfort today and anything else you’d like to discuss with us will help us create the best course of care.
Cleanings And Check Ups
Regular dental checkups and cleanings (at least every 6 months) are critical to maintaining overall health. Early signs of oral health issues are often discovered via routine cleanings and checkups, giving our team the chance to treat things like plaque buildup and calculus on teeth before they develop into more serious problems like gum disease.
Buildup of plaque and calculus on the teeth often occurs in areas that are difficult to reach or bothersome for you to take care of. This can cause gum disease. Calculus can only be effectively removed with special instruments. Incipient decay in enamel which, if untreated, can develop into a costly problem months or even years later, in a worst case scenario leading to tooth loss. Early signs of oral cancers can also be discovered and diagnosed.
At Novello Dental Arts we take routine dental care seriously as it can play a huge role in your overall health! Our relaxed environment filled with diffusing oil aroma will make your appointment one to look forward to. Schedule it now!
Bad Breath (Halitosis)
Being told that you have it is mortifying but even worse is to go through your routine blissfully unaware that your halitosis unfairly detracts from all your social and professional interactions. Statistics indicate that chronic halitosis affects more than 50 million Americans.
Now for the silver lining: we can help! Halitosis attributable to oral health is almost always easily treatable using the methods we employ at Novello Dental Care.
Unpleasant odor can be caused by decayed teeth, gum disease or by the accumulation of proteins on the back of the tongue or by simply inadequate oral hygiene. The first step in treatment is discovering the cause. The second step is providing you with the knowledge, treatment and products that will keep your breath pleasant and your mouth clean and healthy.
Sometimes halitosis is not due to any oral health-related conditions. In these cases, we are happy to refer you to a physician for a consultation
