We strive to make every visit a positive and enjoyable experience for our patients. With a focus on preventative care and patient education, we work with you to create a personalized treatment plan that meets your unique needs and goals.
Cleanings
Regular dental cleanings are essential for maintaining good oral health. During a cleaning, a dental hygienist will use special tools to remove plaque and tartar from hard-to-reach areas, which can help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues. At Franklinville Dental we recommend that patients come in for cleanings every six months.
During a cleaning, the hygienist will also polish your teeth, which can help remove surface stains and leave your teeth looking and feeling clean. Additionally, they will examine your gums for signs of inflammation or bleeding, which can be a sign of gum disease.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Oral cancer is a serious disease that affects thousands of Americans each year. However, when caught early, it is highly treatable. That is why Dr. Gottlieb offers oral cancer screenings as part of his routine dental exams.
During an oral cancer screening, Dr. Gottlieb will examine your mouth and throat for any signs of abnormal tissue growth or other irregularities. He may also ask you about your lifestyle habits, such as smoking or drinking, as these can increase your risk of developing oral cancer.
If Dr. Gottlieb detects any potential signs of oral cancer, he may recommend that you undergo further testing or refer you to a specialist for further evaluation.
Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a common dental problem that affects millions of Americans. It is caused by the buildup of bacteria and plaque on the teeth and gums, which can lead to inflammation, bleeding, and eventually tooth loss if left untreated.
At Dr. Gottlieb’s practice in Franklinville, NJ, we offer a range of treatments for gum disease, including deep cleanings, scaling and root planing, and periodontal surgery. These treatments can help remove the bacteria and plaque from your gums and prevent further damage to your teeth and gums.
Children’s Dentistry
As a family dentist, Dr. Gottlieb understands the importance of starting good dental habits early. That is why we offer a range of children’s dentistry services, including routine cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants.
We also work closely with parents to help them understand the best ways to care for their child’s teeth and gums at home, such as brushing and flossing techniques and the importance of a healthy diet.
Root Canal Therapy
A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat a tooth that has become infected or damaged. During a root canal, Dr. Gottlieb will remove the infected or damaged tissue from the tooth and replace it with a filling material to help restore the tooth’s function. He may also place a dental crown to further protect the tooth.
Root canals are a very effective way to treat a tooth that is causing pain or discomfort. At Franklinville Dental, we use the latest techniques and technologies to ensure that our root canal patients are comfortable and pain-free during the procedure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, there are several things you can do to prevent gum disease, including brushing and flossing regularly, using an antiseptic mouthwash, avoiding tobacco products, and maintaining a healthy diet. You should also visit your dentists regularly as they can identify signs of gum disease you may miss.
We recommend that parents bring their children in for their first dental visit around the age of one, or when their first tooth erupts. This early visit is a great opportunity for parents to learn about their child’s dental health and get tips on how to care for their child’s teeth and gums at home.
