Preventive Dental Care & Routine Exams in Luverne
At Luverne Family Dental, routine cleanings, fluoride treatments, and oral cancer screenings help protect your smile and support long-term oral health.
Routine Cleanings & Exams
Regular cleanings and exams help keep your smile healthy and allow us to identify problems early. During your visit, Dr. Tanner Brolsma will examine your teeth and gums for signs of decay, disease, and other concerns, while our hygienists clean, polish, and remove plaque and tartar buildup.
These appointments help keep your smile looking and feeling its best while reducing the risk of cavities, gum disease, and bad breath.
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride treatments are a simple way to help strengthen teeth and reduce the risk of cavities. After your routine cleaning, a concentrated fluoride solution is applied to the teeth and left in place for a few minutes.
Fluoride helps strengthen enamel and can be especially beneficial for children or adults who are more prone to cavities.
Oral Cancer Screenings
At each visit, our team is trained to look for early signs of oral cancer, such as unusual sores, red or white patches, lumps, swelling, or changes that have not healed normally.
Because oral cancer can develop without obvious symptoms, routine screenings are an important part of preventive care. Early detection greatly improves the chances of successful treatment.
Sealants
Sealants are a protective coating applied to help “fill in” the deep grooves on children’s back teeth (their permanent molar and premolar teeth). Children often have difficulty keeping these teeth clean due to their limited dexterity and how far back these teeth are in the mouth.
In fact, 80% of cavities in children are diagnosed on their molars and premolars. Sealants function to “seal out” food, acid, and decay-causing bacteria in order to help prevent cavities.
