Routine Preventive Care For A Lifelong Smile
The key to a lifelong smile is regular dental care and a good daily oral hygiene routine at home. Your dentist at Valley Dental Health will evaluate all aspects of your dental health, including your gums and the function of your bite.
We take the time to educate patients on their unique dental health issues and concerns. Our team also advises on specific products and treatments that can help you maintain a healthy smile. All of this helps you avoid complex problems later on.
We recommend that patients of all ages visit us for routine dental care twice a year. Routine visits not only provide a thorough dental cleaning but enable us to screen for other dental concerns, such as periodontal disease and oral cancer. Getting to know our patients as individuals through routine dental care provides the base for building a healthy doctor-patient relationship.
General dental services are the foundation of our family dentist office in Hunt Valley. These dental services help us in our overall life. We offer the comprehensive services necessary to keep smiles of all ages healthy. Preventive dental care services include:
- Dental fillings: We provide dental fillings to repair cavities and restore the tooth’s shape and function. Our dentists will remove the decayed portion of the tooth and fill it with composite resin or amalgam. Fillings help prevent further decay and keep your teeth strong.
- Sports Mouthguards: We offer sports mouthguards that will protect teeth from injury during physical activities like football or basketball. Custom-made by Dr. Roham Rafat, they fit perfectly and provide better protection than store-bought options. Our mouthguards also help prevent dental damage for those who grind their teeth at night.
- Children’s Dentistry: Pediatric dentistry focuses on caring for children’s teeth, from baby teeth to adolescence. Our office will help to ensure proper dental development and teach kids good oral hygiene habits early. Regular visits can prevent cavities and set the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles.
- Periodontal therapy: Gum disease is an infection that affects the gums and can lead to tooth loss if untreated. Our periodontal treatments, like deep cleaning, scaling, and root planing, remove plaque and tartar to stop the infection. Early treatment helps save teeth and keeps your gums healthy.
- Root canals: A root canal treats infected or damaged tooth pulp to save the tooth. We remove the infection, clean the area, and seal it. This procedure stops pain and prevents further damage, keeping your tooth intact.
- Tooth extractions: Tooth extraction removes a damaged or problematic tooth to prevent further issues. We may recommend it for severe decay, infection, or overcrowding. The procedure is quick and helps protect your overall oral health.
- Dental cleanings: Professional dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar that you can’t reach with regular brushing. They help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. Our regular dental cleanings keep your teeth healthy and your smile bright.
- Dental sealants: Sealants are a protective coating we apply to the chewing surfaces of back teeth. They help prevent cavities by blocking out food and bacteria. Sealants are beneficial for children and teens to protect their developing teeth.
If you avoid dental care due to anxiety and fear, Valley Dental Health can help. We offer a full range of dental sedation options to meet your needs. We will discuss your medical history, personal concerns, and needs to ensure your safety and comfort during your dental treatment.
Making Over Smiles In Hunt Valley
Valley Dental Health can help you achieve the smile you desire or restore the look of your smile with cosmetic dentistry. Our dentists can help you choose the right cosmetic procedure to improve both the look and health of your natural smile. Services can include:
- Teeth whitening: Our teeth whitening treatments will brighten your smile by removing stains and discoloration. We use safe, effective treatments to lighten teeth quickly. It’s an easy way to boost your confidence and improve your smile’s appearance.
- Invisalign clear braces: Invisalign clear braces use custom-made aligners to straighten teeth without metal brackets. They are almost invisible, and you can remove them for eating and brushing. Invisalign provides a comfortable, discreet way to achieve a straighter smile.
- Porcelain veneers: Porcelain veneers are thin, custom-made shells that cover the front of teeth to improve their appearance. They are ideal for people with chipped, stained, or misshapen teeth. Veneers create a natural-looking, long-lasting smile makeover.
- Gum lift, crown lengthening: A gum lift, or crown lengthening, reshapes the gums to expose more of the tooth. This procedure improves the look of your smile or helps prepare a tooth for a crown. It makes teeth appear longer and healthier.
- Esthetic dental crowns: We use tooth crowns to cover and protect damaged or weakened teeth. They restore the tooth’s shape, strength, and appearance. Crowns also help improve chewing and prevent further damage to the tooth.
The Benefits Of Restorative Dentistry
Our dentists address tooth damage and loss with appropriate restorative procedures. We aim to restore your natural look and a functional smile. Restorative dental care treatment plans can often play an important role in maintaining your smile for the long term. Valley Dental Health can repair and replace teeth with a range of treatment options to meet your needs.
Treatments such as:
- Dental crowns: Dental crowns are caps we place over damaged or weak teeth to restore their strength and appearance. Endodontists and dentists also use them temporarily after root canals. They are perfect for those with cracked, decayed, or worn-down teeth. Crowns protect the tooth and improve its function and look.
- Dental bridges: Dental bridges fill gaps from missing teeth by attaching to nearby healthy teeth or implants. They restore your smile, improve chewing, and prevent teeth from shifting out of place. We use bridges to provide a durable, natural-looking solution to replace missing teeth.
- Dentures: Dr. Izadi uses dentures to replace all missing teeth in the upper or lower jaw, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile again. They are an affordable solution for people who have lost all their teeth.
- Dental implants: Roham Rafat uses dental implants to replace missing teeth with a durable, long-lasting solution. They are ideal for people who want a permanent option that looks and feels like real teeth. Moreover, implants help improve chewing, speaking, and overall oral health.
- Single Tooth Dental Implant: A Dental implant for a single lost tooth provides a permanent, natural-looking replacement. It’s great for anyone missing one tooth and wanting to preserve their smile without affecting nearby teeth. The implant restores function and prevents bone loss in the jaw.
- TMJ therapy: TMJ treatment helps relieve jaw pain, headaches, and discomfort caused by temporomandibular joint disorder. Treatment is ideal for people with jaw clicking, grinding, or trouble chewing. Therapy improves jaw function and reduces pain.
