At Georgia Dental Studio, we believe preventive dentistry is a cooperative effort shared by the patient, dentists, and dental team. We take a comprehensive approach, using state-of-the-art tools and techniques to preserve the natural teeth and supporting structures while preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of oral health concerns.
We're proud to offer top dental cleanings and preventive care near Jersey, GA, and beyond. With our experienced dentists and the latest dental technologies, our patients receive exceptional care in a comfortable, modern setting.
We offer the following preventive care services at our dental office in Jersey, GA:
Preventive Exams and Professional Teeth Cleanings (Prophylaxis)
Regular dental exams and cleaning visits are essential in preventing dental problems and maintaining the health of your teeth and gums. Our dentists recommend scheduling an appointment for a preventive dental cleaning and exam at least twice a year. Depending on the state of your oral health, we may recommend more frequent visits.
At these visits, your teeth are cleaned and checked for cavities. Your preventive care appointment may also include a review of your health history, a set of diagnostic x-rays, gum evaluation, and more, to provide our dentists with a complete view of your dental health.
At Georgia Dental Studio, an effective dental exam and cleaning will involve a more comprehensive approach compared to simply checking for cavities and polishing your teeth. We are committed to providing you with the best possible care and long-lasting, healthy smiles!
Dental Sealants
A dental sealant is a thin, plastic coating applied to the chewing surface of molars, premolars, and any deep grooves of the teeth. More than 75% of dental decay begins in these deep grooves, since the areas are hard to clean and very susceptible to decay. A sealant protects the tooth by sealing deep grooves, creating a smooth, easy-to-clean surface.
Sealants can protect teeth from decay for many years, but need to be checked for wear and chipping at regular dental visits. Georgia Dental Studio provides sealants to all ages, including children, teenagers, adults, and even baby teeth, if needed!
Fluoride & Varnish Treatments
At Georgia Dental Studio, we offer professional fluoride and varnish treatments as part of our preventive care services. These quick, painless applications help strengthen tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay and cavities. Particularly beneficial for children, patients with a history of cavities, or those with sensitive teeth, fluoride treatments provide an added layer of protection to keep your smile healthy and resilient between visits.
Athletic Mouth Guards
Athletic activity may pose a risk to the teeth and orthodontic devices. Fortunately, it’s easy to protect the teeth and jaw against sports-related injury or damage with a simple, custom-crafted sports mouth guard. Mouth guards are often overlooked as a part of sports equipment, but patients who use them as a first line of defense are up to sixty times less likely to suffer oral injuries compared to those who don’t.
Our dentists offer custom sports mouth guards to provide lasting protection for your smile. They are designed to be easily cleaned, comfortable, and unlikely to tear or inhibit speech or breathing in any way. When utilized, stored, and cared for properly, athletic mouth guards will last for years!
Care for Your Smile with Comprehensive Preventive Dentistry
Quality prevention helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the key to having a healthy, confident, beautiful smile. Prevention begins at home with proper oral hygiene and a balanced diet, and is continued in the dental office by the efforts of your dental team to promote, restore, and maintain your oral health! Georgia Dental Studio is with you every step of the way.
