Proactive Dental Care is the Key to a Long-Term Healthy Smile
Every day our smile is under attack from harmful bacteria. These bacteria are working to erode your enamel and tooth structure and infect your gum tissue. Brushing and flossing at home can only do so much to fight off this attack. Only the professionals at Terrific Teeth in Houston, TX have the tools and expertise to completely clean your teeth and gums. Regular teeth cleanings and dental exams are the key to a long-lasting, beautiful smile.
Dental checkups help to keep your teeth and gums healthy. These visits allow our dentist, Dr. Flippen, to identify any potential oral health issues that may go unnoticed until it’s too late. The earlier Dr. Flippen is able to detect these issues, the more likely he will be able to save your natural smile. It has the added bonus of usually being less expensive in the long run, as well. Our dental hygienist is also able to use our high-tech dental tools to remove harmful plaque and tartar buildup that at-home dental care products cannot remove. Scheduling your regular check-ups can help keep your whole body healthy, as well. Our dentist is able to identify other chronic conditions affecting your overall health by the way your mouth is kept.
Each dental checkup is customized to the individual needs of each patient. Typically, these visits will last 30 minutes to an hour. During the dental exams portion of your checkup, our dentist will:
- Perform an Oral Cancer Screening
- Perform a Gum Disease Evaluation
- Take X-Rays
- Check for Cavities
After your dental exam, our dental hygienist will begin your teeth cleaning. During your dental cleaning, our team of highly trained and experienced professionals will expertly remove the harmful bacteria that has built up on and around your teeth. On top of using our high-tech tools to clean your teeth, we will also professionally floss your teeth. Our team may also recommend a fluoride treatment to further strengthen your teeth’s enamel layer.
Love Your Dentist, Protect Your Teeth
Terrific Teeth offers a diverse variety of options for building, protecting, and maintaining your oral health. We are proud to help our Houston community create lasting oral health and enjoy the confidence that comes with the perfect smile. From pediatric care to temporomandibular disorder, our modern facility and knowledgeable staff can help you with all of your dentistry needs.
Keep Your Gums Healthy
Gum disease (periodontitis) is one of the most common dental health issues in America, but it's also completely preventable. To help our patients avoid this issue, Dr. Flippen performs gentle scaling and root planing to clean around and underneath your gums, preventing bacteria from forming.
Take Care of Your Family's Teeth From Day One
Many families have to manage two offices with two different dentists to trust. That's not the case with Terrific Teeth. We're skilled, patient, and happy to work with adults and kids so your family can rely on the same dental family for all your appointments.
Manage Jaw Pain
Frequent headaches, stiffness or discomfort in the jaw, and difficulty sleeping are all signs of TMJ/TMD. TMD (temporomandibular disorder) is caused by abnormalities in the hinge that connects your jaw to the temporal bones of your skull. We offer solutions such as mouthguards, which will alleviate pain and lessen the effects of clenching or grinding your jaw.
Get A Restful Night's Sleep
Sleep apnea is a common sleeping disorder that affects millions of Americans. Signs of sleep apnea include waking up in the middle of the night gasping for air or choking, severe snoring with gaps or interruptions in breathing, and frequent morning headaches. If you think you may suffer from sleep apnea, reach out to us and get life-changing treatment that will help you get quality sleep all through the night.
