Preventative & Restorative Dentistry in Olympia, WA
At Carey V. Lasley, D.D.S., we are dedicated to helping you achieve and maintain optimal oral health through a combination of preventive and restorative dental care. Our proactive approach emphasizes the importance of regular dental check-ups, personalized at-home hygiene practices, and timely restorative treatments to ensure your smile remains healthy and vibrant.
Preventive Dentistry
Preventive care is the cornerstone of good oral health. By addressing potential issues early, we can prevent minor concerns from developing into major dental problems. Our preventive services include:
- Professional Cleanings & Exams: Regular dental cleanings and comprehensive exams help remove plaque and tartar buildup, detect early signs of decay or gum disease, and maintain overall oral health.
- Personalized Oral Hygiene Guidance: We provide tailored advice on brushing techniques, flossing, and the selection of dental care products to enhance your at-home oral hygiene routine.
- Nutritional Counseling: Understanding the impact of your diet on oral health is crucial. We offer guidance on foods that support strong teeth and gums and advise on limiting those that can contribute to enamel erosion and decay.
Restorative Dentistry
When dental issues arise, our restorative treatments aim to repair and strengthen your teeth, restoring both function and aesthetics. Our restorative services include:
- Tooth-Colored Fillings: Utilizing durable composite resin materials, we repair cavities and minor tooth damage while maintaining a natural appearance.
- Dental Bonding: This versatile procedure addresses minor imperfections such as chips, cracks, gaps, and discoloration, enhancing the overall look of your smile.
- Non-Surgical Gum Treatments: For patients showing signs of gum disease, we offer deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) and localized antibiotic therapy to restore gum health and prevent progression.
- Dental Sealants: Applied to the chewing surfaces of molars, sealants provide a protective barrier against decay, particularly beneficial for children and adults prone to cavities.
- Digital X-Rays: Our advanced digital radiography system offers clear imaging with significantly reduced radiation exposure, aiding in the accurate diagnosis of hidden dental issues.
By integrating preventive strategies with restorative solutions, we strive to keep your smile healthy and beautiful for years to come. Regular dental visits, combined with good oral hygiene practices and a balanced diet, are essential components of maintaining optimal dental health.
