“Healthier teeth mean a healthier body,” says Dr. Buchholtz. “That is why we are committed to preventive care, understanding that your oral health is a critical component of your overall well-being.”

Preventive dentistry is all about taking proactive measures to avoid dental issues before they arise. It’s a comprehensive approach that includes regular check-ups, professional cleanings, and patient education. By focusing on prevention, we can help you avoid more complex and costly treatments down the line
“Preventive care is the cornerstone of a healthy smile,” says Dr. Buchholtz. “It’s about empowering our patients to take control of their oral health.” Engaging in preventive dental care is essential for:
Regular preventive care can keep your teeth and gums healthy, and contribute to your overall well-being. Neglecting preventive measures can lead to cavities, gum disease, and other serious dental problems.
Routine dental visits are the cornerstone of preventive dentistry. During these appointments, our team performs thorough examinations and cleanings to remove plaque and tartar buildup. This can help your teeth and gums remain healthy.
“At Family Dental Practice, we are proud to offer laser cleanings,” adds Dr. Garro. “This is helpful to our patients who dislike the sounds and sensations of traditional polishing and drilling.”
To provide an extra layer of protection against decay, we offer dental sealants and fluoride treatments. Sealants act as a barrier against bacteria, while fluoride strengthens tooth enamel, making it more resistant to cavities.
“Developing tooth decay begins early in life, so sealants are often recommended for children and teenagers, but adults can benefit from sealants as well,’ says Dr. Buchholtz.
With the grim reality of one person losing their battle with oral cancer every hour in this country, Family Dental Practice has joined the fight against the disease. Every routine adult hygiene appointment with us includes oral cancer screening. Early detection and diagnosis are the most effective way to beat the condition.
“We believe in educating our patients,” emphasizes Dr. Garro. “Understanding proper oral hygiene practices is essential for maintaining a healthy smile at home.” Our team provides personalized guidance on brushing, flossing, and other essential oral care techniques.
Our dedicated professionals are committed to providing exceptional care with a personal touch. Dr. Will Buchholtz emphasizes, “Restoring smiles is our passion, but building lasting relationships with our patients is our mission.”
