Cleaning | Comprehensive Exam | Flouride Treatment | Oral Cancer Screening
The American Dental Association recommends you see your dentist every six months. Preventive dental care can help you reduce or avoid future costs by preventing and finding potential issues sooner. Because many diseases and conditions first show signs in your mouth, good dental health and a strong relationship with your dental office are important steps in your overall health
The doctor will review all findings and discuss possible treatment options to help you achieve the smile you deserve.
Fluoride can be an important part of preventing tooth decay in patients of all ages. During your visit, we will determine your risk for dental decay by discussing your diet, home care, previous decay history, illnesses and prescription medications. Fluoride treatment can be done in the office, or at home.
In the office: Treatment can be done during your regular exam using a tray with gel or foam fluoride. A more highly concentrated fluoride varnish that is brushed onto your teeth can also be used.
At home: Options for fluoride treatment include prescription toothpastes or a daily rinse. It is important to follow all recommendations made by your dentist and to also be aware of the fluoride levels in your water.
Oral cancer can be life-threatening if not diagnosed and treated early. Grant Road Dental provides oral cancer screenings as part of your regular dental exam. There are two main risk factors for oral cancer. Smoking and tobacco use are long-term historic causes of oral cancer. In addition, the HPV-16 virus, a sexually-transmitted disease, is resulting in the fastest-growing segment of oral cancer patients being young, healthy, nonsmoking individuals.
When found early, oral cancers have an 80 to 90 percent survival rate. Dentists can be a first line of defense in identifying abnormalities in the mouth, which could be a sign of oral cancer.

Dr. Rutner has been my dentist for over ten years and he has been wonderful. From general cleanings and exams, adult Invisalign treatment, to the replacement of numerous 15 + year old crowns, I have been extremely pleased with the results. His staff is very professional and friendly as well, with many of them having worked there for over 10 years. On my most recent visit, Dr Rutner was able to get me in very quickly to replace a veneer on my front tooth that I had damaged. He was able to make a perfect replacement right in his office and installed it immediately. It looks great, so many thanks Dr. Rutner.

Just had my routine cleaning. The poor technicians with all the extra PPE...but it is what must be done. I love that they use the ultrasonic descalers instead of the traditional metal picks to clean your teeth. It is so much FASTER and more comfortable. The staff is always friendly. The techs always explain what they are doing. They show you any areas of concern on the xrays, etc. Thanks for a pleasant experience.
