At the office of Whittier Dental Group, our dentist is happy to provide you and your loved ones with skilled care and the essential knowledge you require to establish and maintain excellent oral health. With an emphasis on the importance of preventive dental care, our practice serves as an excellent resource for everything from routine exams and professional teeth cleanings, to oral cancer screenings and guidance on proper dental hygiene. Warmly welcoming patients of all ages for care, we’re committed to maintaining a position at the forefront of the latest research and technology to better serve your needs.

How long has it been since your last checkup? The American Dental Association recommends that patients visit their dentist once every six months to receive an oral exam and professional teeth cleaning. With regularly scheduled visits, you benefit from the oversight and care of an experienced professional. From teaching every member of the family how to brush and floss, to checking the health of your teeth and gums, our dentist takes a proactive approach to oral care to help keep your smile free from disease and in optimal condition. To assist us in performing a complete and thorough oral exam, we use the most advanced diagnostic technology. In this way our dentist can check for a wide range of issues, including dental decay, gum disease, impacted wisdom teeth and oral cancer. One of the significant benefits of routine checkups is that our dentist can detect emerging issues early on, when they are typically the easiest to treat. Children especially benefit from a comprehensive program of preventive care, as it helps protect their smile and encourages them to develop good habits and positive attitudes towards their oral health. We also provide pediatric patients with additional treatments such as dental sealants and fluoride therapy, which helps to further shield their newly emerged teeth from decay. 

At the office of Whittier Dental Group, we’re dedicated to providing the highest quality of skilled and compassionate care. For more information on our practice and the many services we provide, give our office a call today.
