Preventive Dentistry

Santa Clarita Dentistry

By prioritizing preventive care, we help you avoid dental emergencies, reduce long-term costs, and support top-notch oral health. With compassion and a comprehensive approach, our services include x-rays, examinations, screenings, and cleanings.

Dr. Oyama's preventive dentistry keeps teeth healthy with a holistic approach that helps prevent disease. Maintaining dental function preserves a youthful appearance and supports overall health.

Regular checkups let you discuss dental concerns like pain, bad breath, broken teeth, oral cancer screening, smile correction, extractions, or sensitivity. Addressing these early prevents more serious problems.

We encourage you to share concerns. Your hygienist may ask about age-specific issues. All concerns are handled confidentially and respectfully.

Dental Cleaning

What takes place during teeth cleaning?

The hygienist checks your teeth and gums to assist the doctor with diagnosis and treatment.

Plaque is a sticky substance made of bacteria that builds up on the surface of teeth. If not removed regularly with brushing and flossing, plaque hardens into tartar.

Scaling removes tartar from teeth and gums. These tools are safe and won’t harm your teeth. Removing tartar prevents decay and bacteria from harming your health.

A dental tool measures the space between your teeth and gums. Healthy gums have shallow areas. With gum disease, gums shrink and may expose roots and destabilize teeth.

A gritty paste polishes away stains, and then teeth are flossed. You're all clean!
