At Diamond Dental Group, we know a proactive approach to dental care provides more benefits than just a clean smile. Regular checkups and cleanings aren’t just about your teeth — they’re an investment in your overall health and well-being. Keeping a healthy smile can boost your self-confidence and even reduce the risk of serious health issues. By catching issues early, we can provide less invasive and more affordable treatment. Preventive dentistry is all about protecting your health, saving money, and giving you the confidence to smile without hesitation. Our preventive services in Denver include:
Dental Exams and Preventive Cleanings
At your preventive check-up appointment, Dr. Alex will perform a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and soft tissues to check for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, and other concerns, including oral cancer. We may also take routine X-rays, which can further help detect issues like cavities and decay not visible during a visual exam. Your dentist will then remove plaque and tartar buildup and polish your teeth to lift surface stains and leave your enamel smooth and shiny. If needed, fluoride treatments and sealants can be applied to protect teeth.
Family Dentistry
At Diamond Dental Group, we’re proud to provide comprehensive dental care for the whole family, all in one convenient location. Whether it’s your child’s first cavity or routine care for a grandparent, our team is here to support every stage of life. There’s no need to visit multiple offices – you can build a strong, lasting foundation for your family’s oral health right here at our Denver practice.
Fluoride/Varnish Treatment
Fluoride and varnish treatment is a quick, painless treatment that helps strengthen tooth enamel and prevent cavities. A concentrated form of fluoride is gently brushed onto the teeth and provides a protective layer over the enamel. This is especially important for those prone to tooth decay, including children, teens, and even adults with sensitive teeth or gum recession. Fluoride treatments are safe and effective treatments for all ages.
Silver Diamine Treatment
Silver diamine treatment is a quick, affordable alternative to fillings and may eliminate the need for restorative work or anesthesia. This liquid is brushed onto the affected tooth to stop cavity progression by killing bacteria and preventing tooth breakdown. Because this treatment permanently stains the treated cavity black, it is typically used as a temporary solution to delay more complex procedures, or to manage cavities in baby teeth.
Desensitizing Treatments
If you’re dealing with tooth sensitivity – whether it’s from cold drinks, sweet foods, or even brushing – Diamond Dental Group is here to help. We offer professional desensitizing treatments, including high-fluoride varnishes to strengthen enamel and desensitizing agents to seal teeth and protect exposed dentin. With proper care, desensitizing treatments can provide fast, lasting relief and help you enjoy your favorite foods and drinks without discomfort.
Athletic Mouthguards
Over-the-counter mouthguards may seem convenient, but they don’t provide the same level of protection, comfort, or fit as a custom-made mouthguard from your dentist. At Diamond Dental Group, we create mouthguards that are specifically molded to your teeth, offering better coverage, stability, and shock absorption.
A properly fitted mouthguard helps protect against broken teeth, jaw injuries, and even concussions during sports or high-impact activities. Custom mouthguards will also stay in place more securely, making it easier to focus on your performance.
Mouthguards for Bruxism
If you wake up with jaw pain, headaches, or notice wear on your teeth, you may be grinding or clenching in your sleep — a condition known as bruxism. At Diamond Dental Group, we offer custom-made night guards designed to protect your smile and relieve discomfort caused by nighttime grinding. Our night guards are built with high-quality, medical-grade materials and tailored to your unique bite for maximum effectiveness and comfort. Mouthguards for bruxism are a simple, effective solution to prevent long-term damage and improve your sleep.
