We will evaluate every aspect of your oral health during your exam. Digital dental x-rays will reveal any hidden areas of concern. Early signs of decay, bone loss, and other irregularities will become visible to our caring professionals.

After a thorough examination of each tooth, we'll conduct a periodontal exam to assess your gum health and determine that you are free of gum disease. We'll also inspect your bite and administer an oral cancer screening.

Our team will provide a personalized smile evaluation. Panther Creek Dental wants you to have the most aesthetically pleasing smile possible. Our exam will determine if you would benefit from any cosmetic dentistry procedures.

Routine dental cleanings are essential for long-term healthy smiles. Our dental hygienist will start by using a unique tool called a scaler to remove plaque and tartar build-up from your teeth surfaces, under your gum line, and between your teeth. They will also eliminate minor stains on your teeth.

Dental cleanings coupled with extra care by you at home will help prevent gum disease and even treat and reverse gingivitis. Brushing and flossing are mandatory!

It is imperative that you practice essential oral health tasks to avoid gum disease. Without proper care, periodontal disease can affect the structures supporting the teeth, potentially leading to loose teeth and tooth loss.

If you develop gum disease, a deep cleaning and ongoing maintenance will allow you to live a healthier life. Studies show that you are less likely to experience health problems such as diabetes, kidney disease, and heart disease if you practice positive oral health habits and maintain healthy gums.

Your deep cleaning, a procedure known as scaling and root planing, involves removing plaque and tartar deposits from around the gum line and between your teeth, followed by cleaning and smoothing your tooth root surfaces to allow your gum tissues to heal.
