Dental Cleaning & Examination

We believe that preventative care is essential for staying in good oral health. Our goal is to keep our patients as healthy as possible. The best way to do so is through ongoing dental care and teaching our patients how to practice good oral hygiene at home.

Composite Fillings

Our team has extensive experience with fillings and will ensure that you are comfortable throughout the procedure. This is one of our most frequently used procedures since a filling is typically placed after removing tooth decay (common cavities).

Tooth Extractions

The team at Essex Family Dental is able to perform most dental extractions with a focus on care and comfort. If you feel that you are in need of a dental extraction, call us today to schedule your consultation!

Root Canal

A root canal works by carefully making a tiny hole in the surface of the tooth to access the inner nerve within the tooth. Specialized instruments are then used to remove any infectious material or bacteria-filled debris.
