As your Sparta dentists, Dr. Jennifer Knoll and Dr. Hannah Morgan know the importance of making your time and money stretch as far as possible to take care of your family’s healthcare needs. Did you know seeing a dentist on a regular basis can save you and your family time and money down the road? Preventive dental care means seeing us every six months for routine cleanings and exams. Coupled with good home care habits, preventive dental care will provide you and your family a lifetime of healthy smiles.
Dr. Knoll offers the following preventive dental care procedures, including:
Get the kids excited about clean teeth now and set them up with a healthy mouth for life. We offer routine cleanings and exams, sealants, and fluoride varnish. Our patients under the age of 12 can be appointed on our special “Kid’s Days” that are themed especially for them. Previous themes have included Superhero Day, Pirates and Princesses Day, and Frozen Day… complete with a visit from Elsa! See our Facebook page for some of the silly things we do to keep dental visits fun!
Food and bacteria can get caught in the deep grooves of your child’s molars. By sealing this area we can help prevent cavities and fillings as your child grows.
Fluoride is not only for kids but adults too! Protect your teeth and reduce sensitivity with this simple addition to your routine cleaning.
Dr. Knoll and Dr. Morgan can detect abnormalities in the soft tissue of your mouth and catch oral cancer in its earliest stages.
IsoLite is used for illumination, retraction, airway protection, and helps the patient stay open during the procedure. It provides for more efficient and safer dentistry that is also hopefully more comfortable.
We have several treatments to make your teeth more comfortable for your dental visits and beyond. In addition to laser treatments, we can polish your teeth with an Arginine and Calcium Carbonate paste to relieve tooth sensitivity before procedures and routine cleanings. We also have several products that can numb your tissues during a cleaning to make the procedure more comfortable. Ask your hygienist how we can improve your visit by helping keep discomfort to a minimum.
Our hygienists provide instructions on technique and explanation of the various products we recommend, including Sonicare, OralB, ACT, ClinPro Flouride Paste, Prevident Fluoride rinse and many more!
We are taking every precaution necessary to limit the exposure of any virus within our office to protect our valued patients and staff. While we have always implemented the highest standards of infection control (above what is recommended), you will also see some new protocols that we would like you to be aware of.
