Get Proactive Smile Care With Regular Checkups

Routine dental visits are essential for maintaining a healthy smile. At Westlake Family Dentistry, we focus on preventing issues before they start. During your checkup, we use digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to get a detailed view of your teeth and gums.

Our advanced diagnostic tools, including DIAGNOdent cavity detection and oral cancer screenings, help us catch problems early. By visiting us regularly, you can avoid costly treatments and keep your teeth and gums in great shape.

We want you to feel comfortable during your checkups. You can snuggle up with a pillow and blanket, if you'd like, and listen to music using headphones. If you struggle with nerves during exams, ask about our sedation options.

Wonderful office . Most complete exam I have ever had. Highly recommend
