General Dentistry at Ada Smile Place
A WHOLE-HEALTH APPROACH TO YOUR CARE
At Ada Smile Place, we know that your oral health is deeply connected to your overall physical health. That’s why our approach goes beyond just treating teeth and gum issues. We take the time to understand your complete health history and check for signs of any conditions that could impact your well-being, such as sleep-disordered breathing. By identifying and addressing these issues early, we can provide comprehensive care that supports a healthy smile and a healthier you.
Ada Smile Place is a trusted dental home for many in our community. Choosing a dentist for your family is one of the most important decisions you can make for their overall health and well-being. We see ourselves as more than just a dental practice—we’re a partner in your family’s lifelong journey toward optimal oral health.
Professional Dental Cleanings
MAINTAINING ORAL HEALTH
Regular professional dental cleanings are essential if you want to maintain your oral health and prevent serious dental issues. Plaque and tartar form on your teeth over time, leading to gum disease and cavities, if not removed on a regular basis.
During your cleaning at Ada Smile Place, your hygienist will carefully remove any plaque and tartar, polish your teeth, and provide tips on how to maintain a healthy smile between visits. This preventive measure helps keep your teeth and gums in optimal condition and reduces the risk of needing more extensive treatments down the road.
Oral Cancer Screenings
EARLY DETECTION SAVES LIVES
Oral cancer can develop without obvious symptoms, making regular screenings at the dental office crucial for early detection. During each dental visit, we will conduct a comprehensive oral cancer screening, evaluating your mouth, throat, and surrounding tissues for any abnormalities. If we do detect something, we’ll guide you through the next steps to ensure prompt and appropriate care. Early-stage oral cancer is often more treatable, which is why we prioritize thorough screenings for all our patients.
Fluoride Varnish
PROTECTING AGAINST CAVITIES
Fluoride varnish is a simple yet effective way to protect your teeth from cavities. It strengthens the enamel and makes it more resistant to decay, which is particularly important for children and those prone to cavities.
The application of fluoride varnish is quick and painless. We’ll carefully apply a small amount of varnish to the surface of your teeth, where it will harden and provide long-lasting protection. We also offer a hydroxyapatite varnish as a more biomimetic option for patients concerned about fluoride.
Dental Sealants
SHIELDING VULNERABLE TEETH
Dental sealants are protective barriers that shield the grooves of your molars, where cavities are more likely to form, from plaque and bacteria. Applying dental sealants is a simple process at Ada Smile Place. We’ll clean the teeth, apply a special gel to prepare the surface, and then paint the sealant material onto your teeth. Once in place, the sealants protect the chewing surfaces and can last for several years. Dental sealants are a great option for kids who find it difficult to brush their teeth thoroughly or are just learning to brush their teeth correctly.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
NATURAL-LOOKING CAVITY REPAIR
Cavities compromise the integrity of your teeth, but tooth-colored fillings offer a discreet and effective restorative solution. These fillings blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, restoring both function and appearance.
If you have a cavity, we’ll remove the decayed portion of your tooth, and fill it with tooth-colored composite resin. This high-quality material is extremely durable and matches the shade of your natural teeth, ensuring your smile can keep looking great.
Root Canals
SAY GOODBYE TO PAIN FROM INFECTED TEETH
When the pulp inside a tooth becomes infected, it can cause considerable pain and discomfort. A root canal treatment is often the only way to save the tooth. At Ada Smile Place, we enhance the accuracy of our diagnosis and treatment with advanced cone-beam imaging. This advanced technology provides a detailed 3D view of your teeth, nerves, and surrounding structures, allowing us to map out the exact anatomy of your tooth.
We’ll then remove the infected pulp and seal the tooth to prevent future issues. To ensure the continued stability and function of your tooth; we may also place a dental crown as the last step of your root canal treatment.
Dental Crowns
RESTORE DAMAGED TEETH WITH CUSTOM CROWNS
Dental crowns are an effective solution for restoring the strength, function, and appearance of damaged teeth, whether your tooth has suffered decay, injury, or general wear. To ensure a perfect fit and long-lasting results, we use digital impressions—a modern, comfortable alternative to traditional molds. This advanced technology allows us to capture detailed images of your teeth with a small scanner, eliminating the need for messy impression material altogether.
We then use these precise digital impressions to create custom crowns from high-quality materials like e.max, zirconia, or even gold for patients who grind their teeth heavily. The result is a crown that fits perfectly, protects your tooth, and blends beautifully with your natural teeth.
Tooth Extraction
EXPERT CARE FOR A HEALTHIER SMILE
At Ada Smile Place, our goal is always to preserve your natural teeth. However, there are situations where extraction is the best option for your health. This may be due to severe decay, infection, or overcrowding. Tooth extraction is a routine treatment that we perform with gentle care to ensure your comfort. We will also provide you with thorough guidance on post-extraction care to ensure a smooth and effective healing process.
Periodontal Therapy
COMPREHENSIVE GUM CARE
Periodontal therapy is crucial for managing gum disease and preventing the tooth loss it can cause. We are able to target areas of infection and inflammation in your gums with appropriate therapies to restore optimal health. Our periodontal therapy treatments include deep cleaning to remove plaque and tartar below the gumline and encourage fully restored oral health. To further enhance treatment outcomes, we incorporate advanced laser therapy. The use of the laser is a noninvasive technique that effectively reduces bacterial load below the gumline. This promotes healing and leads to more successful results for your gums.
Nightguards and Mouth Guards
PROTECTING YOUR TEETH
Nightguards and mouth guards offer essential protection for your teeth, safeguarding against damage caused by grinding, clenching, or sports activities. We’ll take digital impressions of your teeth, so you can be sure your nightguard or mouth guard will fit perfectly. We’ll create a guard that’s comfortable to wear and provides you with the protection you need.
Sedation Options
ENSURING A COMFORTABLE EXPERIENCE
We understand that dental visits can make some patients feel a little anxious. That’s why we offer sedation options to ensure your comfort during treatment. At Ada Smile Place, we provide nitrous oxide for mild relaxation and oral conscious sedation following the Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation (DOCS) protocol. These options help you to stay calm and comfortable throughout your visit.
