Keep Your Smile With Cleanings & Dental Exams

Come See Us for Your Checkups

Bacteria in your mouth can become plaque over time, and that plaque can harden into tartar. Tartar can be removed only by a professional teeth cleaning. Even if you brush your teeth twice a day and floss daily, your dental hygienist can remove bits of tartar from spots you may have missed.

It is recommended that patients see their dentist every six months for a teeth cleaning and dental exam. Some patients might have ongoing oral health issues that require more frequent visits.

During your dental exam, we can take digital X-rays, conduct an oral cancer screening, and follow up on your general oral health and comfort.

Prevent Decay & Disease

We provide several other preventive dentistry services that can help you maintain a healthy smile, including:

Fluoride Treatments – Consider a fluoride treatment or varnish after cleaning. Fluoride helps strengthen teeth against tooth decay.
Nutritional Counseling – We can teach you how what you eat can benefit your teeth and gums.
Gum Disease Treatment – Your dentist will look for signs of gum disease during exams. If any are detected, prompt treatment will keep disease from worsening.
Dry Mouth & Bad Breath Treatment – Our dentists can identify underlying medical causes for these conditions. We can also suggest products to alleviate symptoms.
Custom Mouthguards – Protect your teeth from injury with a custom-designed athletic mouthguard from Lakewood Dental Centre.

Common Questions About General Dentistry

What is general dentistry?

General dentistry includes several beneficial services that will help you maintain healthy teeth and gums. These services include dental cleanings, dental exams, gum disease treatment, dry mouth treatment, bad breath treatment, and custom-fit mouthguards. General dentistry forms the cornerstone of good oral health, so we recommend you visit us routinely for your preventive dental care.

Can specialists practice general dentistry?

While specialists have completed much of the same training as a general dentist, specialists are not permitted to practice general dentistry in Manitoba. They use their expertise to treat patients requiring their special training.

Why is general dentistry important?

General dentistry is important because it supplements your regular oral home care for maintaining a healthy mouth. Without regular basic dental care, the condition of your teeth and gums can begin to deteriorate, causing you to need more invasive treatments like tooth fillings, dental crowns, root canal therapy, and even dental implants.
