Dental Checkups & Cleanings
We will use advanced digital technology to check for cavities and damage while also examining your gums, jaws, bite, and existing restorations. Once complete, one of our skilled hygienists will begin to clear away built-up plaque and tartar, reducing your chances of gum disease and leaving you with a healthier, more vibrant smile.
Children’s Dentistry
Children of all ages are welcome in our Wayne dental practice. With two general dentists who can administer essential treatment to curb potential cavities, protect growing smiles, and monitor oral development, our dental team provides a comforting, compassionate, and caring environment for young smiles. With kid-friendly services and optimal personalization, your child will feel supported and encouraged as they enter each new stage of life.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride exposure is a daily occurrence for many patients. Found in tap water, toothpaste, and food items, it is commonly known as “nature’s cavity fighter.” Offering many oral health benefits such as fortifying enamel and combatting decay, our dental team offers additional fluoride treatment to those who are at a higher risk of developing cavities. Applied during a regular exam, it is safe for children and adults and is completely painless.
Dental Sealants
Your molars contain multiple crevices that easily trap harmful bacteria and food particles. To reduce the likelihood of cavities, we can apply dental sealants. Typically used on younger patients because of their novice oral hygiene habits, they’re also beneficial for adults who are prone to developing cavities. We will apply a clear coating over the chewing surfaces so that teeth are better protected against possible decay.
Athletic Mouthguards / Sportsguards
If anyone in your household enjoys playing sports, you’ll want to make sure that they have a customized athletic mouthguard to wear before entering the game. This protective oral appliance reduces the impact on teeth and gums that might otherwise result in a cracked, chipped, broken, or knocked-out tooth. Crafted to fit comfortably and ensure maximum protection, more time can be spent playing the game instead of visiting the emergency dentist.
Nightguards for Bruxism
Daily grinding and clenching of your teeth can result in enamel wear and tear and chronic jaw pain. The discomfort felt each morning can leave you desperate for help. At Main Line Dental Group, our skilled dentists can alleviate the problem with a customized nightguard. Worn while you’re asleep, your upper and lower rows of teeth will be unable to come into contact with each other, reducing wear and tear and minimizing any pressure placed on your jaw joints.
