Preventative Dentistry & Dental Cleaning in Central Illinois

While we love what we do, our team is dedicated to preventing the need for serious oral restoration through our preventative dentistry services.

The last thing you want to hear when visiting the dentist is that you have multiple cavities, tooth decay, or worse, gum disease. To keep your smile healthy and happy, visit our dentist’s office in Metamora, IL for dental cleanings, check-ups, and thorough examinations of your teeth and gums. With over 50+ years of experience in family dentistry, our dentists Dr. Krall, DDS, and Dr. Yoder, DMD are here to help prevent frequent trips to the dentist with proper oral hygiene routines.

Dental Cleaning

Our dental cleaning services are one of the most frequented services our dentists perform. Whether you’re a first-time patient or a reoccurring local, our doctors conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and gums during your routine cleaning visit. We’ll start by performing a physical exam to check for cavities, decay, and any abnormalities before moving on to the cleaning service.

Our dentists will remove any plaque or tartar present on your teeth, floss between your teeth and gums, and apply a fluoride treatment to get rid of any loose debris or bacteria. To schedule your semi-annual teeth cleaning service, schedule a preventative dentistry consultation today.

Check-Ups

It is recommended by almost all dentists to have a routine check-up on your teeth once every six months. This not only keeps you on a regular oral hygiene schedule, but it helps to prevent any serious issues like gum disease or tooth decay. Working with our local dentists in Metamora, IL has proven to help patients of all ages stay on top of their teeth cleaning schedules and keeps individuals aware of the condition their oral health is in.

If it has been several months or even years since you have last visited the dentist, schedule a consultation with one of our experienced dentists to conduct a standard check-up and cleaning service.

Digital X-Rays

When it comes to preventative dentistry, one of the most reliable services our dentists offer is the opportunity to complete a digital x-ray. While this is not necessary at every check-up unless advised by your dentist, it is a great way to see exactly what may be causing your frequent oral hygiene issues. Our office has access to the industry’s top-rated dentistry equipment to ensure the accuracy of your results and comfort during the exam. Here are just a few of the major benefits that come with our digital x-ray services:

Dental Sealants

Tooth decay is a serious condition that affects many individuals throughout the Midwest. Although you may have positive dental hygiene, without professional cleanings, leftover food particles and plaque will begin to build up over time. This creates the perfect environment for tooth decay to form. Dental sealants are one the best solutions to tooth decay repair and prevention at our dental office in Metamora, IL. 

A dental sealant is a thin plastic material that is coated on the surface of your teeth – usually the back of the molars – that creates a layer of protection to prevent the infection of your teeth’s enamel. We provide dental sealant services for children, teenagers, and adults to prevent further oral health issues. Schedule an appointment at our dentist’s office to discuss dental sealant and tooth decay prevention services.

Why Should You Get Your Teeth Cleaned Every Six Months?

If you brush your teeth twice a day, floss regularly, and make a conscious effort to take care of your oral hygiene, do you still need to get your teeth cleaned every six months? Yes – absolutely! Your semi-annual dental visits are about more than teeth cleanings. It allows you to raise questions and concerns to your dentist while getting a thorough examination of the internal and external health of your teeth, jaw, and gums.
