General dentistry involves the diagnosis and treatment planning, x-rays, preventive care such as dental hygiene, and restorative services such as dental fillings. The Meticulous Smile Dental Professionals manage your dental health needs by diagnosing and treating any dental health problems you may have and by offering preventive dental solutions.

Regular dental exams, dental cleanings and following a good oral health care routine are both important parts of preventive dental hygiene. These practices can help you prevent dental issues and keep your smile healthy.

A night guard should help protect your teeth from the effects of teeth grinding (bruxism) and Jaw Muscle Dysfunction (TMD). If you are experiencing a sore jaw, headaches or tooth sensitivity after sleep, ask your dentist if a night guard is right for you.

Custom night guards can help prevent future dental problems and protect your teeth and jaw from any damage while you sleep. If you grind your teeth, your night guard will act as a barrier to help protect your teeth from damaging each other. If you suffer from jaw joint pain, your night guard will help you reduce clenching, and may give you some pain relief.
