Regular dental cleanings form the foundation of preventive dental care. Gallery Dental specializes in preventative dentistry that helps Edmonton patients maintain long-lasting, healthy smiles.

Our comprehensive preventive care plan includes professional teeth cleanings, thorough examinations, and patient education. This approach limits the amount of dental treatment patients need over time.

Comprehensive Dental Examinations

Dr. Sekhon performs thorough evaluations during new patient examinations and subsequent dental check-ups. Each comprehensive exam includes assessment of teeth, oral structures, existing restorations, and aesthetic concerns.

Our advanced examinations also incorporate TMJ evaluation, sleep apnea screening for better oral health, periodontal assessment, and occlusal evaluation. Patients often describe these as the most comprehensive dental exams they have experienced in Edmonton.

Preventive Teeth Cleanings and Therapy

Our dental hygienists deliver professional cleanings and specialized periodontal therapies. The hygiene team works closely with each patient to identify areas of concern during cleanings.

This collaborative approach helps patients take proactive steps to prevent gum disease and tooth decay. Regular cleanings, also called dental prophylaxis, remove plaque and tartar that daily brushing cannot eliminate.

Advanced Diagnostic Technology

Digital Radiographs

Digital radiography provides high-definition imaging for identifying concerns like bone loss and tooth decay. Dr. Sekhon displays enlarged images on in-room monitors to discuss findings and interpretations with each patient.

Transillumination Technology

Transillumination equipment detects cavities too small for standard x-rays to reveal. Dr. Sekhon uses this technology to pinpoint decay beginning to penetrate tooth enamel before it becomes identifiable through standard examinations.

Early detection through transillumination allows for smaller fillings that preserve more healthy tooth structure. This preventive approach aligns with our commitment to minimally invasive dental fillings and restoration.

Protective Oral Appliances

Gallery Dental creates custom protective mouth guards including athletic sports guards, TMJ splints for jaw pain relief, and sleep apnea appliances. These preventive devices protect teeth from damage and address various oral health concerns.

Dental Check-ups and Cleaning Schedule

Healthy patients benefit from dental cleanings and check-ups every six months. Patients managing conditions like periodontal disease, TMJ disorder, or misaligned teeth may require more frequent preventive visits.

Gallery Dental provides all general dentistry services, including cleanings and prevention, in Edmonton. For complex cases requiring specialized care, we coordinate referrals to trusted specialists.
