Let our Family Take Care of Yours
Victoria's Family Dentist to Help Improve Oral Health
Oral health is a topic that is sometimes overlooked, but in reality, poor oral health has serious consequences on general health. After all, you need a healthy mouth, teeth, and gums to perform essential functions like eating and speaking. A family dentist at Victoria’s Sherwood Family Dental can help get you on the right path towards better oral health.
Dr. Mulholland and his team can screen patients for oral disease, cavities, and other issues. It’s important to tackle problems before they escalate into more severe and challenging issues. You may also save money, time, and discomfort in the long run!
At Sherwood Family Dental in Victoria, our family dentist welcomes patients of all ages, including children and seniors, so bring your entire family! We can perform many treatments at our Victoria clinic, including dental x-rays, teeth cleaning, fluoride treatment, etc., depending on your requirements. We also have the latest and the most technologically and scientifically advanced products which help us provide you with the best possible care.
Why Professional Teeth Cleaning is Necessary
Even people who diligently brush their teeth twice a day need to get their teeth cleaned professionally every once in a while. In fact, the Canadian Dental Association recommends getting your teeth checked out at least once every six months. No matter how consistently you brush, plaque build-up is inevitable. Over time, this plaque hardens into tartar, a tougher substance that can promote bacterial growth and infection. Tartar can lead to gum disease, and it can only be removed using professional, specialized dental instruments. We provide professional teeth cleaning to the residents of Victoria to help you maintain your oral health and detect and treat any potential problems before they turn into more significant issues with the best possible care.
Dental X-Rays & Fluoride Treatments
Using an X-Ray, otherwise known as a radiograph, our dentists in Victoria can investigate your mouth for decay, cysts, tumours, and bone loss etc. We can also determine where your teeth and roots are positioned and find out any abnormalities present. Dr. Mulholland, your family dentist in Victoria, can check your face, neck, throat, lips, gums, and other tissue for signs of oral cancer, thus helping people affected by oral cancer in Victoria detect the problem at an early stage and increase the chances of a successful treatment.
Fluoride, a substance found naturally in soil, water, and certain foods, can prevent tooth decay and even fight it. During a treatment, fluoride will be allowed to permeate deeply into all the nooks and crannies of your teeth’s surfaces as well as any exposed or sensitive root surfaces. This will help the residents of Victoria fight against tooth decay in the most effective manner possible. At the same time, it will, to a large extent, prevent further problems and complications from developing.
