Preventative Dentistry in Atlanta, GA

Dental cleanings and routine exams are the cornerstones of preventative dentistry. In addition to your cleaning, one of our dentists, Dr. Vaughn or Dr. Praylo, will perform a comprehensive examination of your teeth and gums. This examination allows them to identify any signs of dental problems early on, while they’re reversible or easier to treat. They will check for things like tooth decay, gum disease, bite alignment issues, and other oral cancer. By detecting these concerns in their early stages of development, we can prevent further damage and help you maintain a healthy smile.

This exam will allow our dentist in Atlanta to diagnose your gum health and the appropriate type of dental cleaning. They could be one of the following: • Healthy Cleaning
• Gingivitis Cleaning
• Deep Cleaning (Periodontitis)

Our registered dental hygienists will thoroughly clean your teeth, removing plaque and tartar that can otherwise lead to tooth decay and gum disease. They will also polish your teeth, leaving them smooth and bright as they lift away surface stains. This professional cleaning is essential to remove the buildup that cannot be removed by regular brushing and flossing alone.
