Experience Comprehensive Preventive Care for Your Smile

At our practice, Dr. Shumate and his team want to help you achieve the healthiest smile possible. Preventive care plays a big part in keeping your teeth and gums in good condition. As a result, it helps your entire body stay healthy. If it’s your first visit with us, your dentist will take time to get to know you and your oral health history. Building personal relationships with our patients is important to our team. It’s one of the ways we ensure you feel comfortable and confident throughout your entire dental journey.

Our general dentistry services include:

  • Cleanings and Exams Regular professional cleanings and thorough exams are essential for helping you maintain good oral health.
  • Gum Disease Treatment – Your dentist can treat gum disease with deep cleanings known as scaling and root planing.
  • Dry Mouth Treatment —Your dentist can provide solutions to alleviate dry mouth. By increasing saliva production, you’ll reduce your risk for cavities and other issues.
  • Bad Breath Treatment – Dr. Shumate can identify and address the underlying causes of persistent bad breath. It may be caused by gum disease or an infection that requires immediate treatment.
  • Mouthguards – You can get a custom-fitted mouthguard to protect your teeth. We have options available for athletes and for people who grind their teeth.
