General Dentistry, CT in Danbury, New Milford, Newtown, Shelton by Dental Associates of CT

Preventative care is the first component in a total treatment plan and at Dental Associates of CT, our general dentistry program goes well beyond routine cleanings and cavity prevention. We also educate our  patients as to the most effective oral hygiene habits and the best dental practices and techniques available today. Most importantly, we encourage our patients to ask questions in order to become informed participants when it's time to consider treatment options. Our preventive care plan begins with a review of your medical history, and other important components, such as:

• Regular check-ups every 3, 4 or 6 months
• Fluoride treatments and sealants
• Evaluation of existing oral conditions
• Early intervention to reduce the incidence of dental and oral diseases
• Patient education regarding diseases of the mouth, head and neck

Dental Associates of CT is conveniently located in Danbury, New Milford, Newtown and Shelton, CT. Our doctors and hygienists help patients understand exactly what their oral health issues are, and what might happen if suggested treatment plans are not followed. Children are taught proper brushing and flossing techniques by our pediatric staff as the very first steps in a lifetime of dental health. We also encourage patients who smoke to quit, providing advice and support as they work to give up this difficult habit.

As part of a General Dentistry plan, we also perform:

• Complete tooth and gum examinations
• Interpretation of dental x-rays
• Oral cancer screenings
• Blood pressure screenings
• Evaluations of jaw joint problems

And should your care involve more than preventive measures, dental specialists are located at each of our offices for “co-treatment” that translates into the optimum in patient care and convenience.
