Dental Treatments

If you want to keep your teeth and gums healthy, it's important to see a dentist regularly for routine visits that include cleanings and examinations. Leading dental organizations like the American Dental Association (ADA) recommend setting up a schedule with your dentist based on your particular dental health. At WestLake Dental Care, we're proud to provide patients with the preventative and general dentistry services they need to have a beautiful smile for life!

Preventive care from a dentist near you is necessary to keep your teeth healthy for years to come. It can prevent gum disease and decay, as well as other oral issues. When providing teeth cleanings, our hygienists use a high-powered spin brush and dental-grade toothpaste to clean your teeth thoroughly. During this portion of the appointment, the hygienist also scrapes away any plaque. If you already have gum disease, our dentist will recommend more thorough routine cleanings known as scaling and root planing, which clean underneath your gum line. In addition to cleaning, you'll receive an exam, oral cancer screening, and perhaps X-rays if you're due for them!

In addition to preventive general dentistry, our dentist provides treatments like root canals – a procedure where a dentist removes the inside of your tooth and replaces it with a rubber-like substance. If you have a damaged or decayed tooth, you may receive a filling or crown. Sometimes, our dentist uses an inlay or onlay to cover the cusp of but not the entire tooth.
