Most Americans are taught at an early age the importance of good oral hygiene in preventing gum disease, abscesses, infection, tooth decay, cavities, and tooth loss. It’s also essential in keeping our teeth clean and polished, and our gums pink and healthy—both signs of youth and health.
Most Americans agree that a smile is the first and most lasting impression they have when they meet someone. Just a few minutes each day, along with recommended visits to your Hermitage family dentist in Hermitage, PA, can go a long way to maintaining an attractive smile.

Don’t let your oral health slip by the wayside; we make it easy to schedule dental appointments with our convenient office hours. Our friendly front desk staff is happy to help file claims with your insurance provider and explain your benefits and co-pay.
Regular Dental Check-Ups Are Easy and Accessible
At our practice, we typically recommend a dental cleaning every six months. However, depending on your individual needs, Dr. Deanna Thomas or Dr. Noelle Peters may suggest more frequent visits, especially following a dental procedure or gum disease treatment.
During your visit, our experienced family dentists in Hermitage will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and gums, checking for potential dental issues such as infection, enamel damage from grinding, sleep apnea symptoms, gum disease, loose fillings, and more.
This is also a great opportunity to discuss any dental pain or headaches you may be experiencing, or to learn more about potential treatments. Dr. Thomas or Dr. Peters may suggest preventive procedures to address issues before they become serious.
Your dental hygienist will carefully remove any tartar buildup, which can occur even with regular brushing and flossing. Finally, we’ll polish your teeth and remove any lingering debris, leaving you with a bright, refreshed smile.
Personalized Treatment for All Family Members
Family means you share many things, but oral health needs are not one of them. While everyone in your family may attend the same dental appointments for cleanings and check-ups, some members may need treatment for chronic tooth pain, or chipped teeth from a sports injury. Children may need more dental care than their parents, with a gentle focus on their teeth development and oral structures. No matter if everyone in your family has different dental necessities, we are trained to treat any of them.
