Our Services
Advanced Dental Hygiene

Not your average dental visit!
Because our mission is to help you stay healthy, a cornerstone of our dental services is preventive dentistry. At Dr. Caughey’s practice, we’ve taken a routine dental visit to a new level.

A visit with our hygienist is never “just a cleaning.” Why? Because we believe that early intervention into any health problem can prevent devastating consequences in the future.

Most people are not aware that at every hygiene visit, we screen for oral cancer and periodontal disease in addition to providing cavity detection and plaque control.

Recent scientific studies give evidence that the same bacteria found in plaque below the gumline is found in the plaque on diseased blood vessels – that’s why we see ourselves as the first line of defense toward your overall health.

Our commitment to our patients’ health is our primary focus, that is why our soft tissue management program is highly customized to your individual needs, whether they be preventive or therapeutic in nature. We see ourselves as being partnered with you in the campaign to keep your teeth and gums healthy for life.

Most people think of their visit with the hygienist as just a regular cleaning, but we see it as an opportunity to help you to become your healthiest. Many patients remark that they have never experienced such thorough, comfortable treatment. We think you’ll agree!
