Twice-a-year cleanings and examinations are essential for optimal oral hygiene. These regular visits allow Dr. Blaine McLaughlin and Dr. Meghan Mueller to thoroughly clean your teeth, removing plaque and tartar even from those hard-to-reach surfaces.
One of the biggest reasons people are afraid of going to the dentist relates to pain. Laser dentistry is one of the biggest advances in the dental field when it comes to easing pain. At Dental Touch Associates, we use a water-based laser system that makes your trip to the dentist virtually pain-free.
Professional dental care is important at every stage of life. That’s why children’s dentistry is an important part of Dental Touch Associates. Dr. McLaughlin and Dr. Mueller recommend bringing in children for their first visit as soon as teeth start to break through.
Gum disease is one of the most common oral health issues in the world. In fact, the CDC suggests that nearly 50% of adults ages 30 and over have some form of the disease. The number rises above 70% for people over the age of 65. This is concerning given the related health issues that can result – such as heart disease, kidney failure, and chronic respiratory problems.
One of the latest tools to prevent injury to athletes is a customized mouth guard called Under Armour Performance Mouthwear™. Athletes in all fields want to perform at their best. And now, newer technology can help.
Braces can create beautiful, broad smiles for people of all ages. Dr. McLaughlin has been highly trained in neuromuscular orthodontics and functional philosophies of orthodontics. That means he plans for more than just a pretty smile when the braces come off.
