Stop problems before they start
Why Prevention Matters for Your Family
Preventive care catches minor issues early, which saves you time, money, and discomfort later on. At The Tooth Doc, we use modern tools and a conservative approach to protect your teeth. Regular visits to the dentist for checkups will keep your family's smiles healthy and strong for years to come.
Thorough dental evaluations using the latest equipment
How We Approach Prevention
Dr. Matz takes the time to understand your health history, lifestyle, and goals before recommending any treatment. Every visit includes a detailed assessment using the latest advanced diagnostic tools so we can get a clear picture of your oral health.
Clean teeth, healthy gums
Professional Dental Cleaning
Our hygienist will remove plaque and tartar buildup that your home brushing can't reach. Regular dental cleanings keep gums healthy and your teeth free from decay. We also polish your teeth as part of our professional dental cleaning and check for any signs of trouble during each visit.
Early detection saves lives
Oral Cancer Screenings
We check for early signs of oral cancer during your dental evaluation. Catching abnormalities early results in better outcomes if you have oral cancer. This quick and easy check also gives you and your family peace of mind that any issues will be caught early.
Extra protection for growing smiles
Fluoride Varnish
Fluoride varnish strengthens your enamel and fights decay, especially in children and those prone to cavities. It’s easily applied and provides long-lasting protection—a simple step that makes a big difference in preventing future problems.
Shield teeth from decay
Dental Sealants
Sealants cover the grooves in your back teeth where food and bacteria can hide. It’s a fast, painless, and highly effective treatment that prevents cavities in kids and teens. This protective barrier keeps the molars safe from decay for several years.
Rebuild what’s been lost
Remineralizing Enamel
Weak enamel can be strengthened with treatments that restore minerals and reverse early decay. We use silver diamine fluoride to stop decay from progressing, especially between teeth where cavities often start.
Fix cavities naturally
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Our tooth-colored fillings match your natural tooth color, and they bond directly to your teeth. They're durable, discreet, and free of metal. You get a restoration that blends in beautifully and holds up to daily wear and function.
Save teeth from infection
Root Canal Treatments
A root canal treatment removes infected tissue inside a tooth, putting a stop to pain and saving the tooth from extraction. It's a straightforward procedure that will ensure you’re pain-free and smiling again in no time. Modern techniques make root canal treatments far less intimidating than their reputation suggests. There is nothing to fear, and it’s a very common procedure.
Restore and protect your teeth
Dental Crowns
Crowns cover damaged or weakened teeth, restoring their shape, strength, and appearance. We offer CEREC single visit crowns, so you can walk out with your restoration in just one appointment. We use high-quality materials like e.max and zirconia, known for their durability. Your crown will look completely natural and last for years.
Not all teeth can be saved
Tooth Extraction
Sometimes tooth extraction is the best option. Dr. Matz performs tooth extractions carefully and gently, ensuring your comfort. He can also discuss replacement options with you to restore your smile afterward. Our goal is always to save your natural teeth, but when that's not possible, we make the process as smooth as possible.
Effective treatment for problematic wisdom teeth
Wisdom Tooth Removal
Impacted or crowded wisdom teeth can cause pain, infection, and alignment issues. We remove them safely to protect your oral health. Whether you're experiencing symptoms or want them out before any problems start, discuss your options for treatment with Dr. Matz. He will provide you with expert, tailored advice about a path forward that will be best for your unique needs.
Treat gum disease
Periodontal Therapy
Gum disease can threaten your teeth and overall physical health. Periodontal therapy includes deep dental cleanings and ongoing care to restore gum health and stop infection from spreading. With regular checkups, we can catch gum issues early and create a plan to keep your gums healthy over time.
Protect teeth from damage
Nightguards and Mouth Guards
Custom-fitted mouth guards protect your teeth from grinding, clenching, and sports injuries. They're comfortable, durable, and made just for you. Whether you grind your teeth in your sleep or play contact sports, our customized mouth guards can save your teeth from serious damage.
A calm environment for nervous patients
Dental Anxiety
We understand dental anxiety and take it very seriously. Our team offers nitrous oxide and oral sedation to help you relax during treatment. Before we start, we will explain exactly what will happen so you know what to expect. At The Tooth Doc, you're in control throughout your entire visit. We’re here to provide caring conversations and help you develop strategies to work through your fears.
