What Sets Our Office Apart: Personalized Holistic Care
At our office, we take the time to explain every detail to our patients, showing video images of their teeth to help illustrate any issues. Using an intraoral camera, we capture digital photos of each tooth, which are displayed on a large screen. This allows patients to see what the dentist sees and fully understand the condition of their teeth. By visually identifying problems like fractures or decay, patients are more motivated to address them before they escalate into larger issues.
For both children and adults, this tool highlights areas where plaque is being missed during brushing, which helps reinforce better oral hygiene habits. Being able to see the effects of plaque on enamel helps patients remember to brush in neglected areas, improving overall oral health.
A Relaxing Environment for Stress-Free Visits
We understand that dental visits can cause anxiety, so we’ve created a soothing atmosphere with calming music and tranquil scenery throughout the appointment. Our goal is to educate our patients while addressing all their needs in a comfortable, patient-centered environment.
While waiting, patients can choose to experience a Dermalight session, an LED therapy that promotes skin renewal. We also offer facial mapping to identify areas where lines or sagging are beginning to form, which allows us to plan aesthetic treatments such as Botox, PDO thread lifts, fillers for lips and cheeks, and laser treatments for skin tightening and the removal of fine veins, marks, and hair. Our dental expertise gives us a unique advantage in offering these painless aesthetic treatments, helping you look up to 10 years younger without appearing unnatural.
Holistic Oral Health Care
Dr. Cait and her team provide thorough cleanings, using ultrasonic tools and polishing each tooth while offering education on nutrition and oral hygiene. Dr. Cait’s extensive knowledge of nutrition and exercise allows her to connect oral health with overall well-being. Her simple yet effective mantra, "3 fruits a day, preferably after every meal," promotes oral cleanliness and supports digestive health. Since the mouth is the starting point of the digestive tract, Dr. Cait educates patients on how oral health issues, such as inflammation or disease, can often reflect broader health concerns.
Breathing, Sleep, and TMJ Treatment
Breathing and oral posture are crucial for maintaining healthy teeth and preventing issues like crowding and grinding. Improper jaw, lip, and tongue posture can lead to long-term dental problems. For patients with these concerns, we offer specialized devices that promote proper alignment and relaxation of the teeth and jaws during sleep. These devices not only help with realignment but also improve breathing for those with mild sleep apnea, reducing snoring and supporting cardiovascular health. Additionally, they have been shown to greatly reduce headaches and neck pain associated with TMJ dysfunction.
At our office, we pride ourselves on offering more than just routine dental care. With personalized attention, advanced technology, and a focus on patient education, we empower you to take control of your oral health. Our holistic approach connects oral health to overall wellness. We are dedicated to providing a truly patient-centered experience that supports your smile from the inside out.
