Periodontal Therapy
Periodontal therapy is a non-surgical dental treatment for periodontitis, also known as gum disease. Its goal is to restore gum health so that the loss of natural teeth can be avoided.
Periodontal therapy starts with a comprehensive dental exam, during which your Londonderry, NH, dentist can determine the extent of the gum disease. This will likely include using a periodontal probe to evaluate whether there is gum detachment. If there is, the probe will also enable the dentist to measure the degrees, which will serve as a benchmark as periodontal therapy commences. Periodontal therapy is potentially an effective way to save natural teeth. Contact your dentist to learn more.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Ebright & Smart Family Dentistry offers oral cancer screenings as part of our general dentistry services. Our oral cancer screenings are done with careful attention to detail because we understand how serious a diagnosis of oral cancer can be.
When you visit our Londonderry, NH dental office for your regular dental check-up, our dental professionals thoroughly inspect your oral cavity, including your gums, insides of the cheeks, throat, palate, and other soft tissue. These are the areas where signs of oral cancer are likely first to appear. We will look for unusual signs, such as lesions, spots, redness, and other abnormalities. We will also ask if you have had any unusual or bothersome symptoms. Oral cancer screenings should be a routine part of your oral health program.
Nightguards/Mouthguards
Custom-fitted nightguards and mouthguards help to protect your teeth against the harmful effects of teeth grinding. We take impressions of your teeth so that the nightguard/mouthguard is as comfortable as possible, matching the contours of your mouth and teeth. This helps to ensure not only comfort but also effectiveness. You should be able to sleep restfully, knowing that teeth clenching or teeth grinding will not harm your teeth or lead to TMJ.
In addition to protecting against bruxism, our sports mouthguards are ideal for athletes engaged in contact sports. Crafted from durable materials, they provide excellent shock absorption, minimizing the risk of dental injuries during athletic activities.
Digital X-rays
At Ebright & Smart Family Dentistry, we utilize digital X-rays to capture dental images to help us do our job faster and more efficiently. Our Londonderry, NH, dentist office has invested in the latest technologies to provide our clients with the best dental services in the area. We offer a full range of digital X-ray services for diagnostics, treatment planning, measuring and assessing progress, and choosing the best dental procedures for your needs.
We believe that safety is paramount when it comes to the health of our clients. This is one of the reasons we have transitioned to digital X-rays over traditional X-rays: digital X-rays use less radiation and are safer for everyone over traditional, film-based X-rays that are commonly used.
Intraoral Camera
One of the most exciting technologies we offer at Ebright & Smart Family Dentistry is the intraoral camera. This cutting-edge technology enables us to offer detailed, real-time imaging of your mouth, teeth, and gums. This results in enhanced diagnosis, improved patient education, and advanced treatment planning.
The intraoral camera is a non-invasive way to examine the oral cavity. It consists of a handheld device with a miniature camera. When activated, the camera captures high-res images that are instantly available for viewing on a computer. With the intraoral camera, your Londonderry, NH, dentist can conduct an oral exam and explain what is happening as the patient views the same images from the dentist’s chair.
Uses for the intraoral camera include detecting and diagnosing potential issues, such as cavities, oral cancer, fractured teeth, gum disease, and much more. The intraoral camera can both illuminate and magnify targeted areas for unprecedented detailed imaging.
Fillings
When cavities become a problem, fillings are often the answer. However, the metal fillings used in the past were usually unsightly and sometimes harmful. Today, Ebright & Smart Family Dentistry offers tinted fillings that blend in very well with your natural teeth. The materials used in these tinted fillings are just as durable as metal fillings but offer the benefit of preserving the appearance of natural teeth. Known as composite fillings, they are comprised of a mix of various materials that are FDA-approved to be used in filling material. Whether your tooth filling needs are small or you need a more extensive restoration, you can trust Ebright & Smart Family Dentistry to consider your appearance and oral health.
As you can see, Ebright & Smart Family Dentistry offers a wide range of general dentistry services for our patients in Londonderry and surrounding areas. Contact us today to book your appointment!
