Avoid Serious Dental Conditions Through Preventive Dentistry!
Dr. Robert Matlach, your Huntington dentist, is always happy to help you with your general dentistry concerns. However, we also love to offer preventive dental care services to help you avoid serious oral health problems. Some of our preventive services include teeth cleanings, fluoride treatments, routine dental exams, and oral cancer screenings.
We recommend you schedule regular bi-yearly dental appointments. When you keep your appointments, we are better able to monitor and maintain your teeth, keeping them healthy and clean.
Teeth Cleaning
Teeth cleanings clear plaque and tartar from the surfaces of your teeth. This helps you avoid conditions like gum disease, which can cause tooth loss. We can even take this time to provide fluoride treatment that strengthens your teeth, further protecting you from dental issues.

Dental Exams
During exams, we carefully evaluate your oral health to let you know if you are facing any potential problems. We also check for common markers of oral cancer, which is far more treatable in the early stages.
We want to help you stay happy and healthy for years to come! The preventive work we do is very important to help you maintain the quality of health that can help you avoid serious dental conditions. That’s why our practice is pleased to welcome patients of all ages to our office for preventive treatments!
What Does General Dentistry Look Like at Robert Matlach Dental?
A general dentist is the primary dental care provider who diagnoses and treats oral health care needs. These needs can include— but are not limited to— tooth fillings, dental crowns, root canal therapy, preventive care, periodontal care, dental bridges, and dental veneers.
Although the services we offer are a vital component, we consider our atmosphere even more important. We want you to enjoy coming to our office, knowing that you are in good hands while we work. We listen to you and find out what you need most from your dental care.
During your appointment, we want to help you feel comfortable. You can always have a blanket or pillow to help you relax. If that is not enough to put you at ease, we can provide laughing gas to help you manage any lingering dental anxiety.
Some Common General Dentistry Services
Caring for your health means that we are here to help you manage your oral health at every stage of life. The services on this page are a mere sample of what your Huntington dentist can do to improve your overall health.
- Teeth Cleaning for Gum Disease: A deep cleaning at our office entails cleaning between the teeth and gums down to the roots of the teeth. This removes plaque buildup and allows us to assess the state of the gums and roots. Depending on your needs, we may recommend other treatments to help you fight gum disease.
Learn More About Gum Disease - Tooth Fillings: Dental fillings restore tooth structures that have been damaged by dental caries. A filling restores your tooth to protect your oral health.
- Dental Inlays and Onlays: These treatments are other ways to restore a tooth, particularly in cases where a dental filling or a tooth crown would not be the right solution to protect your tooth.
- Sleep Apnea Treatment: If you are suffering from sleepless nights due to obstructive sleep apnea, we can provide oral appliances that can help you sleep safely throughout the evening, so you wake up feeling well-rested!
