What does preventive dentistry in our office entail?

Champlain Smile Solutions provides comprehensive preventive dental care for everyone in your family. From children to seniors and anyone in between, we adjust our approach to suit patients of all ages. 

Here are our preventive services.

  • Dental check-ups: We get it. You can skip routine dental visits because of cost, dental fear, busy schedule, etc. Unfortunately, missing your bi-annual dental visits can cost you more money and time in the future. Visiting our office every six months allows us to catch and treat minor problems before they become painful and costly. Regular dental screenings at your Burlington office last about 60 minutes, but the benefits last many years. 
  • Digital X-rays: Our visual check-ups are detailed, but not all dental issues are in plain sight. Dental X-rays help uncover bone loss, cysts, impacted teeth, interdental decay, and other issues hidden from the naked eye. Digital X-rays use the latest technology, which delivers high-resolution images with minimal radiation exposure. 
  • Regular cleanings: Brushing and flossing your teeth at home is critical to prevent decay, gum disease, and bad breath. Unfortunately, at-home oral hygiene alone is never enough to keep your mouth clean and healthy. Thorough cleanings in our office remove plaque and tartar from areas you can’t reach with your toothbrush. They also remove surface stains to keep your smile beautiful. 
  • Dental sealants: Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to your teeth to prevent decay. Application is quick and non-invasive, but the results are long-lasting. Dental sealants are often associated with children, but they’re a powerful preventive solution for patients of all ages.
  • Fluoride treatments: Strengthen your teeth against tooth decay with quick and painless fluoride treatments. The procedure is completed in minutes and is suitable for patients of all ages. 
  • Mouthguards: Sports injuries can occur anytime and can be painful and costly. Protect your teeth, gums, lips, cheeks, and jaws from sport-related injuries with customized mouthguards.
  • Oral cancer screenings: Oral cancer claims at least one American life every hour! The good news? A quick, non-invasive screening could be lifesaving by detecting cancer before it spreads. In our office, we include oral cancer screenings in your routine dental check-up—no extra appointment is needed.
