- Dental ExaminationPeriodontal disease can have a significant impact on your oral health. Dr. Bradley Rowe will examine your mouth during each of your dental exams for signs of this condition, and if you are diagnosed, he will work with you to determine the extent of the disease and create a treatment plan that will help fight the disease and improve your oral health. We invite you to call Ideal Dentistry at 509-737-8700 to schedule a consultation with our experienced dentist and learn more about gum disease treatment in Kennewick, Washington.
- X-raysOne of the advanced diagnostic tools used in our office is the digital X-ray. Digital X-rays have improved the process of taking dental X-rays, making the process faster, more comfortable and more convenient. In the past, film radiography required not only more time to capture images but also the use of toxic materials to develop the image. Digital radiography, on the other hand, uses small digital sensors to capture high-quality images of your teeth and supporting oral structures. The images can then be viewed instantly on a nearby monitor. Additionally, digital X-rays are also highly safe for use due to the fact that they produce up to 90% less radiation than film X-rays.
- Oral Cancer ScreeningYour first visit to our office helps our dentist and team become familiar with your oral health needs and develop a plan for your ongoing care. During this appointment, we will perform a full exam, including a visual inspection, periodontal evaluation, oral cancer screening and analysis of your bite. We will closely examine your teeth and supporting structures, and we may use digital X-rays or other imaging technology to check for tooth decay, bone loss or other dental problems. All of this is designed to help us evaluate the health of your gums and teeth so that we can diagnose and treat any developing problems.
- Teeth CleaningDental cleanings and exams are crucial to keeping your mouth and smile healthy, and they are among the most important treatments offered at Ideal Dentistry. These regular appointments to receive preventive care allow our dentist to monitor your oral health and diagnose developing problems, such as gum disease, more quickly. We will also review your oral hygiene with you and provide any other treatments that may be necessary. We welcome you to call us at 509-737-8700 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Bradley Rowe and learn more about the benefits of dental cleanings and exams in Kennewick, Washington.
- Fluoride TreatmentOur dentist will evaluate your child’s fluoride levels and oral health during their regular appointments. If it looks like your child is not receiving enough fluoride from drinking water and using fluoridated toothpaste, we may recommend a fluoride treatment in our office. We will discuss this with you during your child’s appointment.
- Dental SealantsDental sealants are a thin plastic coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. Sealants work to protect the tooth from decay-causing factors, including food particles and harmful bacteria, so that your teeth and smile can stay healthy. Sealants can be placed quickly and comfortably during your child’s regular dental visits and will help provide effective protection for your teeth for many years.
- Fillings
- Resin CompositeWhen you receive dental bonding, our dentist will work with you to select a shade of composite resin that matches the color of your teeth in order to produce a natural-looking result. A slightly lighter shade may be used if you are receiving bonding to lighten stained or discolored teeth. After the bonding material has been selected, our dentist will carefully place it onto your tooth structure and shape and sculpt it to fit your teeth and correct the flaws in your smile. After the resin has been placed and shaped, we will harden, trim and polish it to complete your treatment and provide you with a long-lasting solution for your smile.

- BridgesOur experienced dentist may recommend a porcelain dental bridge to replace your missing teeth.

The bonding procedure is also very comfortable and does not usually require any anesthetic.

- General DentistryIf you give your child a bottle at night, make sure that bottle only contains water. Sweetened liquids, such as juice, formula or milk, will break down into sugars and cause cavities if left unattended. This condition is known as “baby bottle tooth decay.” If you nurse your child before bed, we recommend rinsing their mouth with water afterwards to help avoid tooth decay. The Academy of General Dentistry recommends that you clean your baby’s gums after each feeding to help establish better oral health for your child. You can do this by gently wiping and massaging your child’s gums with a moistened gauze square or washcloth. You may begin regular brushing and flossing after your child’s teeth begin to erupt.
