Keep your smile healthy for years to come
Preventive care with Dr. David goes beyond routine checkups—it’s about understanding your overall health and long-term goals. Each visit starts with a conversation, where we take the time to learn what matters most to you—clinically, financially, and personally. We’ll assess your oral health in the context of your total well-being, including screenings for conditions like hypertension, sleep apnea, and TMJ issues.You’ll get gentle cleanings, personalized guidance, and clear, judgment-free explanations so you always understand the "why" behind every recommendation. Our goal is to help you avoid problems before they start, and to create a plan that’s realistic, effective, and centered around your comfort. Every step of the way, we’re here to make sure you feel supported, informed, and truly cared for.

Our preventive care treatments
Exams and cleanings
Every checkup includes a detailed exam, professional cleaning (if appropriate), and plenty of time to talk through any questions you have. Dr. David looks at your whole smile—your teeth, gums, bite, and any existing dental work—to make sure everything’s working the way it should. You’ll leave with a cleaner smile, a better understanding of your oral health, and tips you can actually use between visits.
Fluoride treatments
Fluoride helps protect your teeth by strengthening the enamel and making it harder for cavities to form. It’s great for both kids and adults, especially if your teeth are prone to sensitivity or decay. The treatment is quick, painless, and customized to what your smile needs. We’ll also help you find fluoride products you can use at home to keep the benefits going.
Dental sealants
Sealants are a simple, protective coating that we apply to the chewing surfaces of your back teeth. They help block out food and bacteria that can lead to cavities, especially in hard-to-reach spots. Sealants are commonly recommended for kids, but they’re also helpful for adults who want extra protection. The process is quick, easy, and noninvasive.
Periodontal care
Your gums play a big role in your overall oral health. During your regular visits, we check your gum health and look for signs of inflammation or infection. If we notice anything, we’ll walk you through the next steps and give you tools to take care of your gums at home. You’ll always know what’s going on and feel supported every step of the way.
Deep cleaning
If you have gum disease, deep cleaning helps remove bacteria from below the gumline and gives your gums a chance to heal. This treatment helps stop bleeding, reduce inflammation, and prevent more serious issues down the road. We’ll talk you through the process, make sure you’re comfortable, and give you clear instructions for aftercare.
Oral cancer screenings
At every checkup, we’ll do a thorough and painless screening for signs of oral cancer. We check your cheeks, tongue, throat, jaw, and more just to make sure everything looks healthy. It only takes a minute, and it can help catch early changes that are easier to treat.
