The Foundations of a Healthy Smile

At Adams Dental Associates in Sacramento, we offer a wide range of general dentistry services because we understand that your smile is one of your most expressive features. It’s our mission to ensure that smile is as healthy and radiant as it can possibly be.

 

Led by our esteemed dentists, Dr. Kosta Adams and Dr. Kristen Adams, our practice offers a comprehensive suite of general dentistry services designed to meet the needs of patients of all ages. From routine maintenance to advanced treatments, our approach combines cutting-edge technology with a warm, patient-centered experience. Below, we detail the general dentistry services available at Adams Dental Associates.

1. Dental Cleanings

Regular dental cleanings from the hygienist are the cornerstone of good oral health. Professional cleanings are the most effective way to remove plaque and tartar buildup, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease, and keeping your breath fresh and your smile bright.

2. Dental Examinations

Comprehensive dental examinations are vital in general dentistry for detecting potential issues early on. Utilizing advanced diagnostic technology, we assess the health of your teeth, gums, and mouth, ensuring any signs of decay, disease, or oral health conditions are addressed promptly.

3. Dental Fillings

Tooth decay doesn’t have to result in a lost tooth. Our tooth-colored fillings restore the integrity and aesthetics of your teeth after decay has been removed, blending seamlessly with your natural smile.

4. Dental Crowns

For teeth that are damaged but not lost, dental crowns offer a protective cap that restores function and appearance. Our crowns are crafted from high-quality materials to match the color and the contour of your natural teeth.

5. Dental Bridges

Missing teeth can affect your smile, speech, and ability to chew. Dental bridges are a durable solution that fills the gap, anchored securely to adjacent teeth to restore your smile’s functionality and appearance.

6. Dental Sealants

A preventive measure against cavities, dental sealants are applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. This clear protective coating shields the enamel from decay-causing bacteria and food particles.

7. Enamel Shaping

Minor cosmetic concerns can often be addressed with enamel shaping, a technique where small amounts of tooth enamel are removed to correct slight imperfections, such as uneven edges or minor overcrowding.

8. Fluoride Treatments

Fluoride is nature’s cavity fighter, helping to strengthen tooth enamel and prevent decay. Our in-office fluoride treatments offer additional protection for your teeth, especially beneficial for patients at high risk of dental cavities.

9. Mercury Safe and Mercury-Free Fillings

Your safety is our priority. We offer mercury-free fillings for new dental work and can safely replace old mercury amalgam fillings, reducing your exposure to mercury and enhancing your oral health with safer, more aesthetic materials.

10. Occlusal Disease Treatment

Misaligned bite or occlusal disease can lead to a host of dental problems. We provide targeted treatments to correct bite issues, relieving symptoms like jaw pain, wear on teeth, and ensuring a healthy, functional bite.

11. Sleep Apnea and Snoring

Sleep apnea and snoring can affect your quality of sleep and overall health. Our custom-fitted oral appliances offer a non-invasive treatment option, helping to keep your airway open and ensuring a restful night’s sleep.

12. Tooth-Colored Fillings

Gone are the days when a filling meant a noticeable metal spot in your smile. Our tooth-colored fillings provide a durable and cosmetic solution to cavities, blending in perfectly with your natural tooth color.

13. Tooth Perforation Repair

Accidents happen, and when they result in a perforation of your tooth’s surface, our team is ready to repair the damage. Using advanced materials and techniques in general dentistry, we can restore the structure and health of your tooth.
