Dental Checkups & Cleanings
Our dental checkups and cleanings include everything from digital imaging and a visual examination to an oral cancer screening using Velscope technology, as well as a thorough teeth cleaning. Checking for tooth decay, infection or damage, and removing accumulated plaque and tartar allows us to treat and enhance your smile so that you walk away feeling more informed about the current status and future of your oral health.
Children’s Dentistry
You care about your child’s smile, and so do we. This is why Dr. More offers children’s dentistry at our Matthews dental office. Treating kids and teens of all ages, we can closely monitor the development of a child’s smile, minimizing the risk of cavities while also detecting changes in their bite alignment early on. With a talented team ready to ensure their safety and comfort, we will provide the high-quality care their smile deserves.
Fluoride Treatment
As a natural mineral commonly found in toothpaste and tap water, fluoride is known to strengthen enamel and prevent decay. While many individuals receive plenty of exposure to daily fluoride, others do not, and it shows in the number of cavities that form within their mouth. By applying fluoride treatment during a regular checkup, we can help reduce the potential of decay and give your teeth the protection they need between appointments.
Nightguards for Bruxism
You may be unaware that you grind or clench your teeth at night, but worn-down tooth enamel and persistent jaw pain are two indicators that you may suffer from bruxism. If so, our team can deliver a customized nightguard that can be worn while you sleep. Serving as a clear barrier between your upper and lower arches, the device prevents further damage to your teeth and jaw joints, allowing for better rest and a pain-free way of life.
