There’s an old saying, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” Oral health matters not only for your appearance but for the rest of your body as well.

In addition to regular dental cleanings, dental exams are vital for catching problems before they become severe and costly. During a dental exam, Your Trusted Dentists will look at your oral health both from the surface (through a dental cleaning) and beneath it (through an x-ray).
A dental filling involves restoring a damaged tooth by filling the hole with metal, alloy, porcelain or plastic. Dental sealants involve applying a resinous material to the chewing surfaces of your teeth to protect them from dental caries.
An in-office dental crown involves repairing cracked, chipped or decaying teeth with a natural-looking, tooth-colored, durable dental restoration. Dental bridges involve connecting teeth with a permanent tooth-like structure.
There are several programs available to provide free or low-cost dental care in Las Vegas for those who can’t afford the cost of a visit to the dentist. These free and low-cost dental clinics are run by government agencies, charities and faith based groups. You can find a list of them on the Nevada Dental Association website. Some offer dental insurance plans while others don’t.
