Preventive Dentistry in Las Vegas: Optimal Care for Optimal Oral Health

At Desert Ridge Dental, we are dedicated to providing preventive dental services to help you achieve and maintain optimal oral health. That’s why our  experienced team always delivers top-quality care using advanced technology and personalized treatment plans to suit your unique needs. 

Whether you need a routine checkup and cleaning or specialized treatments for specific concerns, we have the expertise and state-of-the-art equipment to cater to all your dental needs.

Checkups and Cleanings

Early detection is key to preventing potential problems and ensuring effective treatment, which is why regular dental checkups and cleanings are fundamental to maintaining a healthy smile. 

During your checkup and cleaning, our doctor and hygienist will thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and oral tissues, looking for any subtle signs of dental issues or abnormalities. Our team will also conduct professional cleanings to remove plaque, tartar, and stains, leaving your teeth brighter and healthier than before!

Scaling and Root Planing

For patients with early-stage gum disease (gingivitis) or more advanced periodontal disease, we offer scaling and root planing treatments. This deep cleaning procedure targets the buildup of plaque and tartar below the gumline, where regular brushing and flossing simply cannot reach. 

We use dental diode lasers to enhance periodontal treatment outcomes. Research has shown diode lasers, when used as an adjunctive to scaling and root planing, drastically reduces the amount of periodontitis-causing bacteria present in the mouth.  The focused and precise nature of laser beams allows for targeted removal of diseased tissue, while also promoting clotting and stimulating tissue regeneration, leading to reduced bleeding, less postoperative discomfort, and improved periodontal healing.

Irrigation after scaling and root planing is an essential step in the periodontal treatment process. By flushing the treated area with antimicrobial solutions, irrigation helps to eliminate residual bacteria, debris, and toxins, reducing the risk of infection and promoting a healthier environment for gum tissue reattachment and healing. 

By removing disease-causing plaque and tartar, we help the gums heal and prevent the progression of gum disease. In turn, you preserve your oral and overall health!

Oral Cancer and Cavity Detection

Your well-being is our priority, which is why we utilize advanced technology to ensure early detection of potential health risks. 

Our oral cancer screening is a painless and non-invasive procedure that can identify abnormalities in the mouth, throat, or oral tissues that may indicate the presence of oral cancer. 

Additionally, our cavity detection technology enables us to catch cavities in their earliest stages, allowing for minimally invasive treatments to restore your teeth's health.

Sleep Bruxism Appliances

If you suffer from sleep bruxism (a condition primarily characterized by teeth grinding and clenching during sleep), we can provide custom-made sleep bruxism appliances. These devices are designed to protect your teeth from wear and tear caused by grinding, as well as alleviate associated symptoms like jaw pain and headaches. 

By addressing sleep bruxism, we aim to improve the quality of your sleep and preserve your dental health.

TMJ Treatment

Temporomandibular Joint Disorder (TMJ) can lead to jaw pain, facial discomfort, headaches, and restricted jaw movement. Our dental team is experienced in diagnosing and treating TMJ issues effectively. 

We offer personalized treatment plans to alleviate TMJ symptoms and improve the function of your jaw, enhancing your overall quality of life.

Snoring Cessation

Chronic snoring can disrupt your sleep and impact your well-being, as well as the sleep quality of those around you. At Desert Ridge Dental, we offer snoring cessation solutions tailored to your specific needs. 

Through advanced treatments, we aim to reduce or eliminate snoring, helping you and your loved ones enjoy more restful nights and improved overall health.

Everyone is friendly, in and out was convenient. And they have a nice room very comfortable. I've found my new Dentist! This has probably been the best experience at a dentist I've ever had.

Had a great experience! I was anxious about a cleaning I needed and they made me feel comfortable and calm. They even gave me options on what I needed versus what were just optional treatments. Dr. Nini was open and answered all my questions! Glad to have a new home dentist.
