Preventative Dentistry in St. Clair Shores
Digital X-Rays & Exams
At Richard G. Raad, DDS, PC, our exams go beyond the surface level. Our staff not only examines and cleans teeth, but we also perform an oral cancer exam, and conduct detailed digital x-rays, to ensure whole mouth health. With technology constantly evolving our office takes pride in our ability to house the latest equipment, so that we can provide you with quick, comfortable, and more accurate results.
Mouth Guards
Mouth guards have many names, such as mouth protectors, sports guards, etc. These devices are designed to proactively prevent injuries to your teeth, mouth, and even your jaw. We offer custom mouth guard fittings to ensure comfort and protection.
Night Guards
Similar to mouth guards, night guards are designed to proactively protect your teeth, but from night-time grinding and chewing. Grinding your teeth causes decay and further surface damage, which increases over time. Allow us to custom fit your night guard, and help expand the functional lifespan of your teeth.
Periodontal (Gum) Disease
Periodontics is associated with the gums, tissue, and bones that support your teeth. We offer periodontal treatment, exams and prevention. Periodontal disease, or gum disease, is the build-up of plaque, tartar, and bacteria around your teeth and below your gum line. This causes deterioration to your teeth and even your jawbone.
Sterilization & Cleanings
Regular oral cleanings, not only help keep your teeth clean and healthy, but it also helps us detect potential issues sooner. We offer full examinations and listen to your concerns. Your health and safety has always been our number one priority. We sterilize all of our equipment, surfaces, and tools between each patient to maintain a clean environment.
