Excellent Care for the Whole Family

When you visit the same dental team for everyone in your family, life gets easier. You won’t have to worry about keeping track of the operating hours of a bunch of different offices — and you may notice that your children are more keen on visiting a dentist they know the rest of their family trusts as well. At the Dental Center of Jacksonville, we work to make sure excellent dentistry is a real family affair. Whether you are looking for a checkup and cleaning for your little one or gum disease treatment and tooth replacement for yourself, you have found the right place.

Our family-friendly services include:

  • Preventive dentistry to help stop oral health problems in their tracks.
  • Restorative dental care, which brings your smile back to its full health after tooth loss and other oral health problems.
  • Cosmetic dentistry services, like porcelain veneers and teeth whitening, which can help turn healthy teeth into beautiful ones.
  • Emergency dental services for when the unexpected happens to you or someone you love — like a knocked out tooth, toothache, or anything else.

Our Children’s Dentistry Services

Of course, children’s smiles have their own challenges and thus require a special approach. Kids are especially vulnerable to cavities between the ages of 6 and 14 or so, while their permanent teeth are developing. Visiting the dentist regularly and maintaining excellent oral hygiene habits at home are of the utmost importance during this time.

To help protect your favorite smile from cavities, we will recommend the following treatments:

  • Dental sealants: A non-invasive (and non-painful) treatment that shields the tooth enamel from food particles and bacteria that can build up in the irregular surfaces on the molars and premolars.
  • Topical fluoride treatments: By applying fluoride to the surface of the teeth, we can remineralize the enamel to keep cavities from forming.

Prevention Is Key

It is always better to keep problems from developing rather than correct them after the fact — and the same is definitely true when it comes to your and your family’s smiles. We recommend patients of all ages undergo a checkup and cleaning at least twice-annually. By scheduling and attending these appointments regularly, you can feel great knowing you are doing the most for your favorite smiles!
