Our top preventive dentistry services in Bedford, TX include:
Dental Exams and Preventive Cleanings (Prophylaxis)
We understand how hectic daily life can be, which is why oral healthcare often takes a backseat. To help you maintain your healthiest smile, our skilled dental hygiene team partners with you to keep your smile clean, healthy, and strong between visits. We recommend scheduling a comprehensive professional cleaning with us at Beelman Dental at least twice a year.
During your preventive cleaning appointment, our team will gently remove surface stains, plaque, and tartar that daily brushing may miss. For added protection, we also offer mineral-rich fluoride treatments to help fortify tooth enamel and ward off cavities. Dr. Beelman will perform a thorough preventive exam to assess your oral health and offer personalized guidance on any additional treatment recommendations for your best oral health.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Oral cancer is often difficult to detect in its early stages without a professional screening. At Beelman Dental, we remain at the forefront of research and technology to identify risk factors and early signs of oral cancer. Because early detection is critical, every preventive care visit includes a thorough oral cancer screening as part of our standard exam.
Custom Nightguards for TMJ & Bruxism
If you experience jaw discomfort, frequent headaches, or nighttime teeth grinding (bruxism), Dr. Beelman can help you protect your smile with a custom-made nightguard. Our custom-crafted bruxism nightguards are designed to alleviate strain on your jaw, reduce tooth wear, and improve sleep quality.
Custom Athletic Mouthguards
If you or your child participates in athletics or contact sports, a mouthguard offers essential protection for the smile and jaw. Dr. Beelman can provide you with a professionally fitted athletic mouthguard, custom-designed for maximum protection and comfort. A durable athletic mouthguard can help prevent dental trauma, tooth loss, and even reduce the risk of concussion-related injuries.
Protective Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a simple yet highly effective preventive treatment that shields the chewing surfaces of back teeth, where cavities most commonly develop. These thin, protective coatings seal off the deep grooves and fissures of molars and premolars, significantly reducing the risk of decay — especially for children, teens, and those who are prone to cavities.
Desensitizing Treatments for Sensitive Teeth
Don't let tooth sensitivity keep you from enjoying your favorite foods. If you experience discomfort when consuming hot, cold, or sweet foods and beverages, Dr. Beelman can offer a desensitizing treatment to keep your symptoms at bay. Professional desensitizing treatments are designed to relieve tooth sensitivity for several months at a time, restoring your ability to eat, drink, and smile comfortably again.
