Cleanings, Exams, and X-rays
Professional cleanings performed by a hygienist are as important to your dental health as daily brushing and flossing. Regular dental check-ups and cleanings help catch problems when they are small and easier to treat. Left unattended, small treatable problems become worse and may require more extensive, expensive procedures to repair. Read More About Dental Checkups
Oral Cancer Screening
During your dental visit, Dr. Bijan Modjtahedi can talk to you about your health history and examine you for signs of mouth and/or throat cancer. Regular visits to Bijan Family Dental Practice can improve the chances that any suspicious changes in your oral health will be caught early, at a time when cancer can be treated more easily.

Home Care
Prevention is the key to maintaining pristine oral health. While checkups and professional cleaning are still a necessity, good home care can help you avoid unnecessary restorative treatments and longer appointments. The steps you take at home are a crucial part of minimizing tooth decay and gum disease. Read More About Home Care
Sealants
Dental sealants are plastic layers that are typically placed onto the occlusal (chewing) surfaces of the permanent posterior (back) teeth. These teeth, the molars primarily, and premolars tend to be more vulnerable to decay. The chewing surfaces of these teeth have grooves, or fissures, that can be deep and difficult to clean. In some cases, they can even be more narrow than the bristle of a toothbrush. The fissures can collect plaque, food debris, and harmful bacteria that eats away at the tooth enamel.

Snoring and Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea is a condition that affects how you breathe when sleeping. During sleep, normal breathing can be interrupted for 10 seconds or more hundreds of times during a single night. Read More About Sleep Apnea
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride is essential for your teeth. This element works to protect your tooth enamel, allowing it to effectively fight off acid attacks and allowing them to remain strong and healthy. By strengthening your tooth enamel, fluoride helps to prevent the formation of decay and development of cavities. Read More About Fluoride Treatment
