General & Family Dentistry
We welcome patients of all ages and provide customized dental care specific to your individual needs. As you age, your oral health needs, challenges and priorities will continually evolve. You can trust Auburn Centre Dental to deliver quality general and family dentistry to every step of the way.
- Children – We provide preventive care, patient education, support, and advice to help those little smiles grow up healthy. Our goal is to help kids develop good habits and positive attitudes about oral care, which form the foundation for a healthy future. We also strive to take the stress out of office visits, with a relaxed atmosphere, friendly team, and lots of fun activities in the children’s area.
- Youth – For teens and young adults the primary focus is prevention. Establishing good hygiene and regular dental care at this stage can prevent decay, gum disease, tooth loss, and a host of other oral health problems.
- Aging adults – Time can take a toll, especially for those who were lax in hygiene habits early in life. Don’t worry, we are not here to judge, we are here to help. No matter what your oral health concerns, from tooth discoloration to total tooth loss, we have beautiful healthy solutions. Our first priority is restoring oral health, and then we work with you to maintain it for life.
- Medical conditions – Many diseases, as well as certain prescription medications, can impact your oral health. Although health problems are increasingly prevalent with age, they can occur at any time. We carefully review and discuss your medical history, and customize your treatment plan. Additionally, we will help you understand your unique oral health needs, and develop healthy habits accordingly.
