Dental Checkups & Cleanings
The American Dental Association, as well as Dr. Gammenthaler, recommend visiting your dentist in Rogers every six months for a routine checkup and cleaning. During this visit, you’ll receive a thorough evaluation from Dr. Gammenthaler as well as a professional dental cleaning from one of our skilled dental hygienists. We’ll also use our advanced VELscope technology to screen you for signs of oral cancer.
Children’s Dentistry
Dr. Gammenthaler and our team love treating children as much as we do adults! We offer a number of kid-friendly dental treatments, ranging from checkups and cleanings to lip and tongue-tie treatment and non-nutritive habit counseling (for thumb-sucking). If you’re looking for a dental office that can see everyone you love, regardless of what stage of their life they’re in, you can rely on us! Our flexible scheduling and same-day treatment is also convenient and ideal for busy parents.
Fluoride Treatment
To help strengthen the protective outermost layer of your teeth, called the enamel, we utilize fluoride. This naturally occurring mineral is produced by rocks and found throughout nature. It’s also added to many municipal water sources as well as dental products like toothpaste and mouthwash. If you’re not receiving enough fluoride, our team can supplement your intake with Curodont Repair Fluoride Plus. It can help address early signs of cavities and is 100 percent non-invasive!
Dental Sealants
Both adults as well as children are at risk of getting cavities, which means both can benefit from dental sealants. These are clear, thin coverings that are invisible to the naked eye and brushed atop the molars. Once they’re hardened, they’ll act as a barrier to keep food debris and plaque from building up in the pits and crevices of the teeth, which is a common cause of decay. One of the best benefits of dental sealants is that they will continue protecting your teeth for years to come, making them a worthwhile investment.
Athletic Mouthguards / Sportsguards
If you or your child participates on local athletics teams, consider investing in a durable, custom-crafted mouthguard. These are specially designed to comfortably fit within your mouth while offering your teeth and jaw maximum protection. They’re made from durable, cushioning acrylic by a dental laboratory we partner with and are easy to clean and care for.
Nightguards for Bruxism
Do you wake up with a dull and thumping headache or a sore jaw? These are two common signs that you grind or clench your teeth as you sleep, which can cause enamel wear as well as put you at a higher risk of cracking or breaking a tooth. To help cushion your teeth from each other, we craft customized nightguards that you can wear as you sleep. They’re comfortable, easy to maintain, and can help save you hundreds in preventable dental treatments due to bruxism!
Sleep Apnea Treatment
If you’re diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea and you feel like your CPAP machine doesn’t allow you to get quality rest due to noise or discomfort, we offer a less invasive alternative. Oral appliance treatment helps prevent airway obstruction as your sleep to ensure ample oxygen flow, minimizing your symptoms of sleep apnea.
