Keep Your Teeth Clean with Regular Dental Checkups


Regular dental cleanups are very important for your health and well-being. Even if you diligently brush and floss daily there are still small areas that are easily missed. Regular dental cleanings can prevent tartar from eroding your teeth and plaque from building up. The last thing you want to worry about is cavities, which can be more expensive than a regular dental cleaning. Call our family dentistry office today to schedule your next dental appointment!

  • Dental Fillings

    Cavities develop due to plaque in your mouth. This film of bacteria collects on teeth and processes sugar to create acids. The acids attack the enamel tissue surrounding your teeth, and over time, a hole (cavity) develops. If your tooth is cracked or decayed, a dental filling can restore the tooth. The decayed portion of the tooth will be removed and filled in with a composite to match your natural tooth.


    If you are experiencing tooth pain, contact our dental office to learn more about our treatments and to schedule an appointment.

  • Partial Dentures

    We also offer partial dentures for patients looking for a more economical solution instead of a bridge or implant. With partial dentures, you’ll have no reason to hide that beautiful SMILE. If partial dentures are not suitable for your condition, Dr. Cooper may recommend the following alternatives:

    • Bridges for replacing missing teeth and preventing adjacent teeth from shifting out of place
    • Implants for support and stable anchor when placing a bridge or partial denture
    • Dentures for multiple tooth restorations
    • Delaying treatment when the procedure might only aggravate the condition of the teeth and gums

    Contact us to discuss the different options to help you achieve that perfect SMILE.

  • Nitrous Oxide

    Nitrous oxide is a safe and effective sedative agent that is mixed with oxygen and inhaled through a small mask that fits over your nose to help you relax. Nitrous oxide, sometimes called “laughing gas,” is one option Dr. Cooper may offer to help make you more comfortable during certain dental procedures. However, nitrous oxide is not intended to put you to sleep. You will be able to hear and respond to any requests or directions Dr. Cooper may have during your procedure.


    Contact us today about whether relaxing nitrous oxide analgesia would be a good option for you.

  • Mouth Guards

    The Office of J. Selig Cooper, DDS, PA, prescribe and create custom-fit mouth guards from thermoplastic material which are based on a detailed mold taken of your mouth and teeth. A mouth guard can be made for either sports or for nighttime teeth grinding and are created differently depending on the intended use. Dr. Cooper can adjust the thickness of the mouth guard to fit perfectly in your mouth with no adjustments needed.


    Mouth guards are used to treat bruxism or teeth clenching and grinding. Bruxism may lead to tooth damage, headaches, jaw pain, facial pain, and other dental and health problems. Wearing a custom mouth guard can prevent teeth clenching and grinding and avoid these painful effects of bruxism. Dr. Cooper will ensure your mouth guard fits comfortably and works to prevent teeth grinding.

  • Night Guards

    If you are experiencing chronic headaches and migraines because of involuntary nighttime teeth clenching, Dr. Cooper can help you by prescribing and creating a custom- fit night guard. A night guard is a thin, transparent device that is worn over the biting surface of your teeth while you sleep to prevent contact between the upper and lower teeth. Night guards have also proven to be an effective remedy for patients who are suffering from the effects of grinding and clenching their teeth while sleeping.
