Make your smile shine
We are simply the best dentists in Dresher, PA
Welcome To Dresher Dental for Comprehensive Dentistry
On behalf of Drs. Farrell & Stevenson, we would like to welcome you to our website.
First, we would like to give you a little information about our practice. We are a small and very modern dental practice focusing on individualized patient care. One of the elements we find most important is treating you and your family as we would want one of our own treated. We give our patients high quality dentistry at fair fees, while offering flexible appointment times to meet busy schedules. We are happy to submit your insurance claims and we will do all we can to help you maximize your insurance benefits.
Procedure Information
Our office provides the latest in general, cosmetic, restorative, prosthetic, implant and aesthetic dentistry. Below is a list of some of the services we provide. If you have any questions related to your dental health or any dental procedures you have heard about, please feel free to discuss them with us.
Examination
The examination is a complete visual inspection of the oral cavity along with any necessary x-rays. Screening for oral cancer and periodontal disease is part of the exam.
Cleaning (oral prophylaxis)
Cleaning is a preventative procedure. It is typically done on those individuals who visit the dentist regularly and who do not build up much calculus and stain. The cleaning appointment should be an easy visit. If a patient has had a long treatment gap between dental visits, or if they tend to build up large amounts of calculus or stain, or if their home care is especially lax, a “cleaning” may not be appropriate. Conservative periodontal therapy may be the treatment of choice.
Periodontal Therapy
Periodontal disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. We screen every patient for periodontal disease and provide conservative, non-surgical therapy for those patients for whom it is appropriate, which is called Scaling, Root Planing and Debridement.
Periodontal Maintenance
After periodontal therapy, a patient is usually seen for maintenance visits (not ” cleanings”, though similar), on a more frequent schedule than that of a routine dental patient. We typically see “perio” patients 3 to 4 times a year, and for those patients who have been treated for advanced periodontal disease, we often alternate maintenance visits with their periodontist.
