Helping Your Family Feel Comfortable
When your family steps through the doors of Putman Dental, our team will work hard to make their experience as comfortable and hassle-free as possible. Not only that, but we're also genuinely dedicated to creating long-term personal and professional relationships with our patients. As such, we pair excellent dental services with a caring chairside manner to help you feel like a member of our family.
We understand how frustrating it can be to feel like you're being rushed through treatments and procedures. That's why we take the time to break down what each service entails and answer any questions you may have. We're also skilled at explaining things using kid-friendly language that resonates with children.
Gentle Dental Care for Children
Our Springfield family dentists understand that healthy oral habits begin during childhood. That's why we strive to help your child get familiar with regular dental visits and teach them good dental habits. When your child visits us for the first time, we'll walk them through our facilities and introduce them to our team, so they know what to expect during their next appointment. We'll also show them how to brush and floss their teeth properly. Our kid-friendly atmosphere helps foster a pleasant experience. We also offer nitrous oxide sedation if your child needs additional help relaxing.
Some of the dental services for children we offer include:
Respectful Dentistry for Teens
Teenagers are entering a time in their lives where they must balance education, first jobs, and relationships. As a result, proper dental hygiene may not fall at the top of their priority list, and good oral hygiene routines established during childhood can weaken. Our dental team will work to reinforce healthy oral habits while respecting your teen's increased independence. At Putman Dental, we provide teens with everything from Invisalign® clear aligners to mouth guards for sports.
Comprehensive Dental Care for Adults
Adults have some of the most complex dental needs of any age group. Our dental office provides extensive treatment and procedure options to cater to your oral needs. During your initial visit, our team will conduct a comprehensive oral exam to determine the condition of your teeth, gums, and jawbones. From there, we'll create your personalized treatment plan that addresses your smile's cosmetic and functional needs.
Our dental services for adults include:
Improving & Protecting Seniors' Smiles
Although the dental requirements of seniors are like adults, there is an increased emphasis on gum health. When left untreated, gum disease can cause extensive jawbone damage and lead to tooth loss. That's why our Springfield family dentistry practice provides skilled gum disease treatment like scaling and root planing.
We also provide skilled restorations to help your smile look and feel its best. Our practice offers extensive restorations, including dentures, crowns, and bridges. Additionally, we also offer high-quality and durable implant-supported restorations.
Family Dentistry FAQs
