Preventative Services

Prevention is key to keeping all oral tissues healthy. At Catalina Family Dental, our team focuses on preventative, educational dental care. Our goal is to make sure your teeth and gums are clean and healthy which is an important component of your overall health.

ROUTINE CLEANINGS & EXAMS

Regular dental exams and cleanings form a solid foundation for excellent oral health. During your cleaning appointment, your dentist will check your mouth to ensure you’re free from disease, and our hygienists will clean, buff, and polish your teeth. Your smile will look bright and beautiful, and we’ll remove the plaque and tartar that can contribute to oral health issues and bad breath.

At Catalina Family Dental, we work with our patients to customize a hygiene protocol for each individual patient. We educate our patients on the importance of oral hygiene to preserve dentition and our overall health.

FLUORIDE TREATMENTS

Fluoride treatment is a powerful tool for preventing tooth decay. During a fluoride treatment, a fluoride-rich liquid will be painted onto your teeth after a routine dental cleaning. This liquid is left in place for a few minutes. The high fluoride content helps strengthen your teeth to prevent decay.

NIGHT GUARDS

Night guards are oral appliances that can help protect your teeth from chipping if you grind or clench. They can also be used in some cases to help reduce jaw pain, restore the correct position of the jaws before beginning a mouth makeover, or as the final step in a large case or mouth makeover to help prevent you from damaging your new investment.

At Catalina Family Dental, we are focused on helping our patients establish and maintain excellent oral health during and in between every teeth cleaning.
