Dental Cleaning & Exams

Learn More
Routine dental cleanings and exams are a key part of preventive dental care, helping protect against cavities, gingivitis and gum disease while supporting long-term oral health. During your visit, one of our experienced dental hygienists will gently remove plaque and tartar buildup from the teeth and along the gumline using specialized tools designed for comfort and protection. After the cleaning, your teeth are polished with a professional paste to smooth surfaces and remove surface stains, leaving your smile clean and refreshed. Your visit also includes a comprehensive dental exam, allowing our team to identify potential concerns and answer any questions so you can feel confident in your preventive care.

Fillings

Learn More
Cavities aren’t fun, but modern dental fillings make treatment more comfortable and effective than ever. Fillings are used to repair cavities, replace worn or damaged fillings, and restore chipped or cracked teeth to prevent further decay. Broadmoor Family Dental Care uses composite fillings, a durable, tooth-colored material designed to blend naturally with your smile while strengthening the treated tooth.

Gum disease

Learn More
Gum disease affects an estimated three out of four adults in the U.S., and many people don’t realize they have it. Caused by bacterial plaque, gum disease is an infection and inflammation of the gums and surrounding tissue…and it’s the leading cause of adult tooth loss. When caught early, gum disease is often reversible. Our team can help restore your gum health and put you back on track toward a healthier mouth and smile.

Oral cancer screenings

Learn More
Oral cancer affects tens of thousands of Americans each year, and early detection is critical. When diagnosed early, oral cancer has a high cure rate, making routine screenings an important part of preventive dental care. Because many patients diagnosed with oral cancer have no known risk factors, our team includes oral cancer screenings as part of regular dental exams to support early detection and peace of mind.
