Services We Offer
Our goal as your dental health provider is to minimize your cost and make sure that your visit is a comfortable one. We want you to be an active partner in your dental care, so we’ll teach you what you need to know to prevent problems and enjoy a lifetime of good dental health. During your first visit, we’ll perform a dental examination and take radiographs so we can diagnose and treat any existing problems. We also take a panoramic radiograph, which allows us to evaluate tissues and foundations not easily seen during a visual examination. We check your teeth, bones, soft tissue, and bite occlusion. We’ll then schedule a consultation to discuss your treatment options, answer any questions you may have, and give home care instructions. School age children are encouraged to attend the consultation so they can begin to understand the importance of good dental health. If finances are a concern, we can schedule a consultation with our financial coordinator who would be happy to discuss your financial options with you.

Due to our extensive experience and commitment to continuing education, Jordan Family Dentistry offers patients the latest technology, materials, and procedures. Our goal is to give patients high-quality restorative dentistry when necessary and to prevent additional breakdown in the future. Our restorative services include:

Gum Disease
A large percentage of the population has gum disease, the number one reason that people lose their teeth. Gum disease is caused by a bacterial infection under the gums, which leads to bone destruction. Our comprehensive initial examination detects gum disease, and we offer the latest in-office non-surgical therapy to help you keep your teeth intact and your gums healthy and pink. In fact, our hygienists have completed nationally recognized training in the latest techniques and work closely with your dentist to ensure that you receive the best possible periodontal care tailored to suit your individual needs. Our periodontal services include:
- Charting and diagnostic services
- In-office, non-surgical gum therapy
