Dental Services in Hutchinson
Dr. Brisco is Your Family's General Dentist
If we could keep your mouth free of cavities and periodontal disease, you'd be able to keep your teeth for life and avoid some restorative dental procedures. Preventive dentistry will save you time, money, and potential pain, so general dentists recommend routine cleanings and regular checkups every six months for most patients.
About 80 percent of the population struggles with gum disease, which causes inflamed and infected gums that can lead to tooth loss and increased risk for systemic diseases. Regular hygiene visits keep periodontal issues under control. Additionally, more than 30,000 Americans receive oral cancer diagnoses each year, so as a general dentist, Dr. Briscoe regularly evaluates his patients for this disease. To prevention cavities in children, we may recommend dental sealants, which protect young teeth from harmful decay. A fluoride rinse also deters tooth decay, and we often recommend fluoride for children and adult patients.
