At Northcross Dental Care, we believe that preventing dental problems is always better than treating them later. Our comprehensive preventative dentistry services focus on maintaining your oral health through regular cleanings, examinations, and education about proper home care. With our proactive approach and advanced screening technologies, we help patients of all ages maintain healthy smiles, prevent costly issues, and avoid unnecessary treatments.
Regular professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that can't be eliminated through brushing and flossing alone. Our gentle hygienists use advanced techniques and tools to clean all surfaces of your teeth, including below the gumline, preventing decay and gum disease while leaving your smile feeling fresh and looking bright.
Our thorough dental examinations go beyond just checking for cavities. Using digital X-rays and advanced screening technologies, we evaluate your entire oral health, including teeth, gums, bite alignment, jaw function, and oral tissues. These comprehensive assessments allow us to identify potential issues early, when they're easiest and most affordable to address.
Early detection is crucial for successful treatment of oral cancer. During your regular visits, we perform advanced oral cancer screenings to identify suspicious tissues that might indicate precancerous or cancerous conditions. This simple, painless screening could literally save your life through early intervention.

Regular preventative care at Northcross Dental Care offers benefits that extend far beyond avoiding cavities. By maintaining consistent check-ups and cleanings, you'll experience better overall health, save money by avoiding costly restorative procedures, preserve your natural teeth longer, and enjoy the confidence that comes with a healthy, well-maintained smile.
Your preventative care journey at Northcross Dental Care begins with a thorough assessment of your current oral health and history. For new patients, we typically schedule a comprehensive examination that includes digital X-rays, periodontal evaluation, oral cancer screening, and assessment of existing restorations. This provides a baseline for your ongoing care and helps us identify any immediate concerns requiring attention.
Based on your individual needs and risk factors, we'll recommend a personalized preventative care schedule—typically every six months for most patients, though some may benefit from more frequent visits. Each preventative appointment includes professional cleaning, examination, and oral health guidance. We also offer additional preventative services like dental sealants, night guards, and athletic mouthguards to provide comprehensive protection tailored to your lifestyle.
At Northcross Dental Care, we take a proactive, comprehensive approach to preventative dentistry. Our team utilizes advanced diagnostic tools like digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to detect issues at their earliest stages. We believe in partnering with our patients through education and personalized guidance, empowering you to maintain optimal oral health between visits.
