At Riverside Landing Dental in St. Albert, we believe preventive care is the key to keeping your family’s smiles healthy for life, and we make it as welcoming and accessible as possible for everyone in our community. We welcome patients of all ages from toddlers to seniors, making preventive care easy and comfortable for everyone under one roof.
What Is Preventive Care and Why Is It Important?
Preventive care at our clinic includes professional cleanings, plaque and tartar removal, oral cancer screening, and personalized home care guidance. Regular preventive care catches small issues early, giving your family the healthiest start possible. We recommend visiting us for a dental check-up and cleaning at least twice per year, so small problems can be caught before they become expensive ones. Our appointments are available evenings on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, plus Saturdays, to help keep preventive care convenient for your whole family.
Oral Cancer Screening and Thorough Assessments
Preventive care at Riverside Landing Dental means going beyond just cleanings. We include an oral cancer screening with every regular check-up at no extra cost. Your dentist visually inspects your mouth and gently examines the tissues to check for any concerns, making early detection possible. Professional cleaning (scaling) removes tartar and plaque that your toothbrush can't reach, which keeps gum disease and cavities at bay. During each visit, we explain our findings, answer your questions, and provide personalized guidance on maintaining your smile at home.
The Benefits of Regular Dental Visits
Benefits of visiting Riverside Landing Dental regularly include catching cavities and decay early before they worsen, identifying signs of gum disease before it progresses, professional removal of hardened tartar, oral cancer screening, fresher breath, and guidance you can use at home. All of these help your family avoid bigger dental issues, reduce the need for more complicated treatments, and enjoy long-lasting oral health.
Preventive Care for Children
For children, we recommend their first dental visit by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth erupting. Early check-ups help prevent cavities and decay, support proper speech and chewing development, and build positive associations with dental visits. Our team creates an environment where kids feel comfortable, using age-appropriate explanations and moving at each child’s pace. Preventive services for children at our clinic include dental exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, dental sealants, tooth extractions, sports mouthguards, Invisalign for teens, emergency dental care, and oral hygiene education.
Sealants and Fluoride Treatments: Extra Protection for Young Smiles
Fluoride treatments strengthen enamel and protect developing teeth, particularly benefiting children. Dental sealants protect the back teeth from cavities by creating a smooth, easy-to-clean surface, and we check them at every routine visit.
Affordable Family Care and Flexible Payment Options
We direct-bill most major insurance providers to minimize paperwork for families, and provide clear cost estimates before every treatment. Every adult cleaning includes a complimentary take-home teeth whitening kit.
