Diagnostic & Preventative Care
At Willden Family Dental, we believe that the most effective dentistry starts with prevention. That’s why we focus on early detection, education, and personalized guidance to help you maintain a healthy mouth—and avoid problems before they start.
Whether you're a long-time patient or visiting us for the first time, our diagnostic and preventative services are designed to be thorough, thoughtful, and supportive of your long-term health.
Preventive care is where long-term health starts. Our goal is to give you the tools, knowledge, and personalized support you need to care for your mouth with confidence—every day.

What We Offer
-
Comprehensive Oral Exams
For new patients and as needed, we conduct an extensive evaluation of your oral and overall health.
-
Periodic Oral Exams
Scheduled every 6 to 12 months depending on your oral health status. These exams help us monitor changes over time and keep your care on track.
-
Professional Cleanings (Prophylaxis)
Recommended twice a year for most patients to remove plaque, tartar, and biofilm that can’t be addressed by brushing and flossing alone. For patients with gum disease or high decay risk, more frequent cleanings may be recommended.
-
Dental X-Rays
Used to detect issues that aren't visible during a visual exam, such as decay between teeth, bone loss, impacted teeth, or infections.
-
Flouride Treatments
Applied as needed to help strengthen enamel and reduce risk of cavities—beneficial for both children and adults.
-
Dental Sealants
Thin protective coatings placed on the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars to reduce the risk of decay.
