Our Preventative Services

Cleanings & Exams

A professional cleaning is the reset your smile craves. We gently remove plaque and tartar including spots your brush can’t reach then polish for that smooth, fresh finish. Your hygienist will review home-care techniques and answer questions without judgment. During your exam, your dentist checks teeth, gums, bite, and jaw function to ensure everything’s working as it should.

Best cadence: every 6 months for most patients; we may recommend more frequent visits if you’re managing gum concerns or buildup.

What you’ll love:

  • Comfortable ultrasonic scaling and thorough polishing
  • Practical tips tailored to your diet, habits, and schedule
  • A clear roadmap if anything needs attention

Sealants & Fluoride Treatments

Sealants add a thin protective layer to the grooves of back teeth where cavities love to start, perfect for kids and cavity-prone adults. The process is quick, comfortable, and lasts years with regular checkups. Fluoride strengthens enamel, helping reverse early demineralization before a cavity forms.

Ideal for:

  • School-age kids with deep grooves
  • Patients with frequent snacking or sugary drinks
  • Anyone with a history of cavities or weak enamel

Digital X-Rays & Oral Cancer Screenings

Digital x-rays use significantly less radiation than film and provide instant, high-resolution images—so decisions happen the same day. Paired with intraoral cameras, you can see exactly what we see on-screen. We also perform routine oral cancer screenings, checking cheeks, tongue, palate, and throat for early signs that are easier to treat when found sooner.

Why it matters:

  • Earlier, more accurate detection
  • More conservative, cost-effective care
  • Peace of mind through clear visuals and explanations

Personalized Hygiene Plans

No copy-paste advice here. We design a home routine that fits your life—brand, tool, and timing included. Prefer a water flosser? Tight contacts? Nighttime snacker? We’ve got you.

Your plan may include:

  • Brush 2×/day with fluoride toothpaste (2 minutes each)
  • Floss daily (or use a water flosser if that’s easier)
  • Rinse after acidic or sugary snacks; sip water often
  • Replace your brush every 3 months or after illness
  • Ask about a nightguard if you wake with jaw soreness

Common Questions About Preventative Dentistry

Endicott Dental is here to answer all of your dental questions!

Most patients do best with visits every six months. If you have gum disease, heavy tartar, braces, diabetes, or dry mouth, we may see you more frequently to keep inflammation down and prevent flare-ups. We’ll recommend a schedule that fits your health and calendar.

Yes. Digital x-rays use much lower radiation than traditional film, and we take them only when necessary. Frequency depends on your age, risk level, and symptoms. X-rays help us spot decay between teeth, infections, bone changes, and other issues we can’t see with the naked eye so we can treat earlier and more conservatively.

Cavities happen when bacteria feed on sugars and produce acids that weaken enamel over time. Risk rises with frequent snacking, sugary or acidic drinks, dry mouth (often from medications), and deep grooves in back teeth. Sealants, fluoride, and smarter snacking—plus daily flossing—dramatically reduce risk.

Bleeding is usually a sign of inflammation, not a reason to quit. Gentle daily flossing (or a water flosser) plus professional cleanings typically reduce bleeding within a couple of weeks. If bleeding persists, we’ll check for gum disease and guide you step-by-step.

You’re not alone. We explain each step, check in often, and take breaks when you need them. Many patients feel more at ease when they can see what we see on the screen, it turns mystery into clarity. If you need extra help relaxing, ask about comfort options.
