Dental Checkups
& Teeth Cleanings

When was your last dental checkup and cleaning? If the answer is “over six months ago,” it’s time to schedule an appointment with Dr. Miller and Dr. Wolf. Oral health problems can crop up at any time, many of which can be hard for the untrained eye to notice. These important visits allow our team to thoroughly inspect your smile, provide easy treatment for any problems early on, and get rid of decay-causing plaque and tartar that gather within the mouth over time.

Nightguards
for Bruxism

Teeth grinding (also known as bruxism) negatively affects a good chunk of the population, leaving patients with damaged, worn-down teeth and constant jaw pain. Thankfully, there’s a simple solution: a custom-made nightguard. Your new oral appliance will be designed for your unique smile, and you simply have to wear it while sleeping. Because most cases of bruxism occur while patients are unconscious and blissfully unaware, your nightguard will do a good job of cushioning your rows of teeth and preventing harmful contact until morning.

Fluoride Treatments

You may have heard of fluoride before in passing while at the dentist’s office, but do you actually know what it is? This natural mineral is added to most municipal water supplies here in the United States for a good reason – plenty of research has gone into proving the connection between exposure to fluoride and stronger, less cavity-prone teeth. While drinking fluoridated tap water should give you and your children the benefits you need, some patients may be good candidates for professional fluoride treatment here at Miller & Wolf Family Dentistry for an added boost of protection!
