Expert Dental Care for Your Brightest Smile

Most patients should visit the dentist every six months for regular check-ups and professional cleanings. However, Dr. Jean may recommend more frequent visits based on your specific oral health needs.

A routine check-up typically includes a professional cleaning, examination of your teeth and gums, oral cancer screening, and X-rays if needed. Dr. Jean will also discuss any concerns and provide personalized recommendations for your oral health.

For optimal oral hygiene, brush your teeth twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, use an antimicrobial mouthwash, maintain a balanced diet, limit sugary foods and drinks, and avoid tobacco products. Regular dental check-ups are also essential.

Professional teeth whitening results typically last 1-3 years, depending on your habits. To maintain your bright smile longer, avoid staining foods and beverages, don't smoke, practice good oral hygiene, and schedule periodic touch-up treatments.

Dental veneers are thin porcelain shells bonded to the front of teeth to improve their appearance. With proper care, veneers typically last 10-15 years. They can address issues like discoloration, chips, gaps, and minor misalignment.

Most dental insurance plans don't cover purely cosmetic procedures. However, some treatments that improve both function and appearance may be partially covered. Our team can verify your benefits and discuss financing options to make cosmetic dentistry affordable.

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. They provide a strong foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth.

The dental implant process typically takes 3-6 months from start to finish. After implant placement, a healing period of 3-4 months is needed for osseointegration (when the implant fuses with the jawbone) before the final restoration is attached.

Most patients report that the discomfort during and after implant surgery is less than expected. Local anesthesia is used during the procedure, and any post-operative discomfort can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.
