Preventative Dentistry Services
We believe in prevention!
Our goal at Orlosky Dental is to do as little amount of restorative work as possible on your teeth. We have a great team of hygienists that are highly trained in prevention of disease. Your dental care will be provided with compassion and patience as you come in for routine cleanings and education.
Prophylactic Cleaning
Prophylactic Cleaning
A preventative treatment that consists of scaling with hand instruments and ultrasonic tools to remove soft and hard deposits on the teeth. After scaling is completed, your hygienist will polish the teeth leaving them looking whiter and feeling smoother. This cleaning will help prevent inflammation in your body and keep the foundation of your teeth strong and healthy.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride Treatment
Our fluoride varnish treatment benefits all patients, from children to adults. Fluoride is used to strengthen enamel and prevent decay. Fluoride can be especially beneficial for people with tooth sensitivity, gum recession, or a lot of previous dental work.
Hydroxyapatite Treatment
Hydroxyapatite Treatment
Hydroxyapatite is a natural occurring mineral that makes up most our our tooth enamel and bone. It is safe, non-toxic, and biocompatible – meaning your body accepts it easily. We use a hydroxyapatite varnish to rebuild and strengthen enamel, fight sensitivity, and protect against decay.
Diagnostic Imaging
Diagnostic Imaging
We use digital radiology for high quality X- rays that help us with accurate diagnosis. We can also use our intra-oral camera to keep our patients aware of the condition of their mouth and progress of their treatment.
Night Guards and Sports Guards
Night Guards and
Sports Guards
Mouth guards consist of both night guards and sports guards. Night guards protect the teeth against clenching and grinding. Sports guards protect against accidental sports trauma.
Periodontal & Cancer Screenings
Periodontal and
Cancer Screenings
Our hygienist will preform a periodontal screening to check for gum disease. Gum disease is the number one way adults lose their teeth. This is a bacterial infection that not only causes tooth loss, but can contribute to heart disease, diabetes, and auto-immune disease. We can also perform cancer screenings that check all the hard and soft tissues in the head and neck area.
