Choose Preventive Care for Healthy Smiles

Junction Creek Family Dentistry offers the general dental services you and your family need to maintain healthy teeth and gums for a lifetime.

We provide dental cleanings and exams to remove plaque buildup with an ultrasonic scaler. We examine your mouth for tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease. Along with daily brushing and flossing, you need to have your teeth professionally cleaned about every six months.

Dr. Cusack performs quick and painless oral cancer screenings. He looks for any changes to the lining tissues inside your mouth, lips, and tongue. Early detection is critical in successfully overcoming oral cancer.

After your teeth are cleaned, we can apply fluoride varnish or treatment. This strengthens and protects your enamel from harmful bacteria and acids.

Dental sealants can be painlessly applied to teeth that are particularly vulnerable to decay and cavities.

If you have periodontal infection, we will apply a topical anesthetic. This makes your ultrasonic deep cleaning, called scaling and root planing, more comfortable.

We can also create retainers and personalized bleaching trays for teeth whitening treatment. If you're struggling with chronic dry mouth or bad breath, Dr. Cusack can help. He can figure out the possible causes and discuss ways to prevent and treat these conditions most effectively.
