Preventative Dentistry Services

Crestview Family Dental offers patients several preventive dentistry services.

Professional Teeth Cleaning and Oral Exams

Routine oral exams and cleanings are crucial in detecting and treating dental problems early to help you maintain good oral health. Early detection catches issues while they’re still minor, saving you money in the long run. 

Digital X-Rays

Every dentist uses dental X-rays to detect oral health conditions that may not be seen with the naked eye. Digital X-rays produce low levels of radiation, making them a safer option.

Oral cancer screenings can be performed during your visit. Dr. Bindra will assess your neck, face, lips, and oral tissue for red or white patches and swollen tissues, which may be signs of cancer.
