Preventive Care to Protect Your Family's Smiles
At Glenview Dental Associates, we take a preventive approach to dental care. From your child’s first visit, our goal is to build a foundation for your child to have healthy and strong teeth that last a lifetime. We strive to prevent the onset and progress of common dental problems through:
Our dentists create preventive treatment plans that are tailored to every child’s individual needs. We’re passionate about building a fun and warm atmosphere that makes going to the dentist something your kids can look forward to.
Regular Exams, Brushing Education, and Teeth Cleaning
We believe that every person deserves a beautiful smile they can be proud of. With regular visits, we can proactively prevent, identify, and treat dental issues before they become bigger and more painful problems.
Our team can also teach you and your child easy ways to achieve better oral and overall health, such as recommending home hygiene habits and equipment. We also show you how to monitor your child’s dental health and recommend healthy foods that are less likely to cause dental decay.
Our Glenview family dentists recommend having your child get thorough teeth cleaning at our dental clinic at least twice a year to ensure that plaque buildup and food deposits are removed efficiently. Our approach to kids' dentistry in Glenview combines healthy oral habits at home and routine teeth cleaning in our clinic, creating a basis for lifelong oral health.
Restorative Treatments for Better Oral Health
If your teeth are diseased, damaged, or missing, we can use restorative dental procedures to revitalize your smile's health, function, and aesthetics. In our Glenview family dental office, we offer an assortment of restorative dental services to suit your needs and circumstances. Depending on your unique situation, your options may include:
We will explain these treatment options to help you choose the most appropriate treatment plan for your needs. We make every effort to rehabilitate the affected teeth through a comfortable, stress-free process.
Sports Guards to Protect Healthy Smiles
Teens who play contact sports should wear a mouth guard to protect against oral injuries. Sports guards are also helpful for outdoor activities like inline skating, skateboarding, or biking for recreation. Sports guards help protect the smile from tooth loss and fractures, along with minimizing injuries to the tongue, lips, and gums.
We recommend a custom-fit guard from our clinic. We cast a mouth guard to fit snugly and absorb different levels of impact. When custom-made to fit your teen’s mouth, a sports guard will be comfortable to wear and less likely to dislodge during contact. We can make sports guards in different colors and customize them to give teens a chance to show their personality while also protecting their smiles.
Wisdom Teeth Extraction
Wisdom teeth are the third set of molars that appear in your late teens or early 20s. These extra teeth can present some serious problems if you’ve already straightened your teeth or if there isn’t enough room in your mouth to accommodate them.
Wisdom teeth are often angled to one side, negatively impacting your bite. They can also cause crowding, forcing other teeth to shift out of place. For many people, extracting your wisdom teeth will be more beneficial for your oral health, especially if they are impacted, angled to the side, or embedded in the jawbone. Our Glenview family dentist uses state-of-the-art technology and recent advances in medicine to provide wisdom teeth extraction with minimal post-operative discomfort and more rapid healing.
Straighter, Healthier Smiles With Orthodontics
At Glenview Dental Associates, we believe in the benefits of a straight, beautiful smile. Whether you have bite issues, gaps in your smile, crooked teeth, or any other orthodontic problems, our family dentistry in Glenview is here to help. We offer traditional metal braces for kids and teenagers with complex orthodontic cases. We also have clear, customized Invisalign® aligners for patients who want to straighten their teeth without conventional metal bands and brackets.
Sleep Apnea Appliances for Better Sleep and Health
Sleep apnea is a serious sleep disorder that occurs when a person stops breathing many times during sleep. If left untreated, sleep apnea can lead to serious health issues. At our Glenview family dental clinic, we offer two types of sleep apnea mouthpieces:
Mandibular advancing devices (MAD): These work by moving the jaw forward, which opens the upper airway and reduces air resistance.
Tough retaining devices: These use a splint that keeps the tongue in place, ensuring it does not block the airway during sleep.
If you've had a sleep study and recently been diagnosed with sleep apnea, you may want to know if an appliance is the right fit for you. After an evaluation, our Glenview family dentist will decide if you’re a candidate for sleep apnea appliances and take steps to make your custom appliance.
Bruxism Appliance Therapy
Bruxism is the excessive grinding and clenching of teeth while you’re awake or asleep. The constant friction and pressure can wear your teeth down, causing irreversible damage. Fortunately, we can help protect your teeth using a custom night guard. The appliance covers all the teeth in one arch and works by separating the teeth and preventing the wearing away of the tooth structure.
Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease (periodontal disease) is a bacterial infection of the gums and tissues that support your teeth. In our practice, we treat mild to moderate gum disease cases with a thorough cleaning by scaling and root planing. If your gum disease is very advanced, we will refer you to a periodontist.
