Have you heard the news? The health of your teeth and gums is connected to your overall health. Patients who maintain regular general and family dentistry visits to keep their mouths clean and free of dental disease have healthier hearts, minds, and bodies! It's important for your whole family, including children ages two and up, to visit our office for routine checkups and hygiene to keep gum infections and decay in check.
General Dentistry for Overall Health
At Heritage Creek Dental, we do more than polish your pearly whites. In addition to a tooth-by-tooth inspection and professional cleaning, we assess your bite for temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ/TMD), provide an oral cancer screening, and evaluate your periodontal health at every six-month appointment. Spotting dental problems early through preventive general dentistry measures helps us save you from invasive and costly procedures down the road and helps you avoid serious illness such as heart attack and stroke.
Family Dentistry for Little Smiles
We love to see your children happy and healthy, and that includes their smiles! Our team is great with children and we know exactly what their developing mouths need. Kids as young as two should begin visiting our Des Moines dental office so that we can monitor their development. As your child grows, we provide preventive children's dentistry treatments including professional cleanings, and sealants and fluoride to protect teeth from cavities. If a problem should arise, you can rest assured your child will receive gentle, quality care.
We love to see your smile! Contact Heritage Creek Dental in Clive or Albia, IA for your family and general dental appointment today.
