Keep Your Smile Healthy

Prevention is the Foundation of Oral Health

There is no substitute for quality preventive care and good oral hygiene habits. Regular visits to Livewell Dental keep your teeth free from decay and your gums free from disease.

What is General Dentistry?

The first step towards happiness

Your oral health has a dramatic effect on your overall wellbeing, impacting everything from your gut health to your ability to get a good nights sleep. General dentistry encompasses a wide range of services, all aimed at keeping your teeth, gums, and jaw at optimum health. With a healthy mouth, you'll feel better in all aspects, so you can live better and smile more.

General Dental Services

We’re proud to offer a full scope of general dental services, so you can smile with confidence knowing that your oral health is in great shape.

Comprehensive Exams

Dr. Chris takes his time to ensure he doesn’t miss a thing during your comprehensive oral exam. He’ll check for signs of decay, gum disease, and other issues that could be cause for concern.

Digital X-rays

Digital x-rays are extremely safe and allow us to get a complete picture of your oral health. With crisp images of your smile’s underlying structures, we can spot issues that aren't visible to the naked eye.

Dental Cleanings

No matter how diligent you are about your at-home brushing and flossing routine, it is still important to get a professional cleaning every six months. We’ll remove any plaque or tartar buildup and ensure your teeth and gums are healthy and strong.

Periodontal Therapy

Those with periodontal, or gum, disease require a little extra attention when it comes to oral care. With deep cleanings, also known as scaling and root planing, and other treatments, we can stop gum disease in its tracks to save your smile.

Fluoride Treatments

Fluoride is a natural mineral that strengthens the outer layer of your teeth, called the enamel. A non-invasive treatment, professional fluoride application provides a concentrated dose of this magical mineral to boost your smile’s resistance to decay.

Mouthguards & Nightguards

Whether you grind your teeth at night or participate in high-impact activities, we have a solution for you. Custom-crafted for maximum comfort and efficacy, a mouthguard or nightguard can help protect your smile while you play or while you sleep.

TMJ/Bite Problems

Temporomandibular Jaw Disorders, referred to as TMJ disorders, are caused by a variety of reasons, and result in jaw pain, or clicking or popping noises when you open your mouth or chew. Dr. Chris can help you find relief for your TMJ issues.

Emergency Care

Dental emergencies don’t happen on anyone’s schedule. That’s why we keep time in our schedule for same-day appointments. If you have a severe toothache, damage or knock-out either a tooth or an oral appliance, don’t wait: call us right away to receive the emergency care you need.

Dr. Chris and his team are welcoming and efficient. I had an emergency dental issue and his office was able to see me the same day and resolve my dental issue. Going to the dentist is the last thing I want to do while juggling life, but Dr. Chris and his team make it easy.
