Sealants are painted onto the chewing surfaces of teeth and hardened with a curing light to block food debris and bacteria. Fluoride treatments restore minerals such as calcium to rebuild weakened enamel. The practice also offers cosmetic dentistry and general comprehensive care, and it uses digital X-ray technology that produces 90 percent less radiation than traditional film X-rays, along with intra-oral cameras in each operatory so patients can see what is happening in their mouths. Treatment plans are created individually for each patient.
