Regular dental visits are really important for a number of reasons. One, everybody has buildup. No matter how well you brush your teeth, myself included, you’re going to get buildup on the teeth of what is commonly known as tartar, okay, which is plaque that becomes calcified and depending on the makeup of your saliva, your drinking water, for some people it builds up really quickly, but everybody gets buildup.
If it’s left on the teeth for a long time, it can start to cause problems with the gums and it can lead to more advanced gum disease known as periodontal disease. Cavities can form fairly quickly and so a visit to your dentist every six months where you’re having things looked at, you’re going to catch things when they’re smaller and if we can address things when they’re small, you lose less tooth structure which equals your tooth being able to be viable and stay in your mouth for a lot longer.

After many offices turned me away for emergency services because I was not a current patient, Guilford Hills receptionist did everything she could to fit me in that day. I requested an emergency extraction. Dr. Newman introduced himself & evaluated the diagnosis of my tooth. He was very considerate of the amount of pain I was in, communicated what he was doing before he did anything, very gentle with the taps checking my tooth versus my regular dentist tapped them pretty aggressively & gave no warning. They made sure extraction was the choice I wanted to go with given I had the option to get a root canal, they had my consent. I didn’t even feel the injections to numb me up, only felt some pressure which he assured me would happen & to let him know if I felt any sharp pain. Absolutely painless. If you have any dental anxiety, I highly recommend this office. I am hoping to make this office my primary dentist.

It is a rare opportunity to walk into a business where everyone is always consistently kind and compassionate. I feel like staff listen and hear me when I ask or say something, it is addressed it directly and openly. I have never dreaded walking into an appointment, in fact I look forward to going because I always come out feeling uplifted and well cared for. Here is one business where old fashion manners, respect and caring for others are still in full swing! Many thanks to everyone, behind the scenes as well as the front line!

Guilford Hills Dental Care is the best dental office hands down. When you arrive, you are greeted by a professional and courteous staff member and the professionalism carries on in each person you encounter through your visit. Jenn is simply the best. She explains what she’s going to do, ensures any questions you have are answered, and makes sure you are completely satisfied before she’s done. The dentist and their staff are energetic and do a great job of making sure you are fully aware and have all your questions answered. This place and their staff doesn’t set the bar because they are the bar. You will not be disappointed! My kids, yes my kids, actually can’t wait to visit this Dental office.

Dr. Sargent and her team are very professional, concerned and caring. I highly recommend them for your dental needs.
For most of our patients, a dental exam and cleaning will take about an hour. We’ll begin by asking you about any problems and possibly taking a set of X-rays. Your dental hygienist will then look over your mouth and perform a thorough teeth cleaning. Finally, your dentist will perform a complete dental exam and make any recommendations needed for a healthy smile.
Putting off dental appointments until you are in pain can lead to a serious oral health issue. Plus, not all dental problems show painful symptoms until they are in the advanced stages. Regular dental checkups give you the advantage of having a dental professional examine your mouth. Detecting oral health concerns in their early stages means less expensive and less invasive treatments.
An ultrasonic cleaning is a method used to remove plaque, tartar, and stains from your teeth using high-frequency vibrations. Your dentist or dental hygienist uses a handheld device that emits ultrasonic waves and directs a fine stream of water onto your teeth. The vibrations generated by the device help break down and dislodge deposits on the teeth. Ultrasonic cleanings are efficient, effective, and often more comfortable than traditional scaling and polishing methods.
