- Dental ExaminationThe best way to preserve optimum dental health is to maintain a sensible oral hygiene regimen. In addition to daily flossing and brushing, this includes regular dental examinations and professional cleanings. A complete oral exam can help ensure you keep your smile bright and healthy. That’s where Dr. Laguatan comes in – maintaining your optimal dental health is his top priority when you visit the Yorkville Family Dental office. We want you to leave smiling!
- Teeth Cleaning
- CrownsIf the tooth is dirty, hold the tooth by the crown (not the root) and carefully rinse off. Do not scrub or remove any attached tissue fragments. Try to gently re-insert and hold the tooth in its socket. If you are unable to do this, place the tooth in a cup of milk and get to your dentist as quickly as possible. Don’t forget to take the tooth with you!
- Restorative DentistryTime and poor oral hygiene can take a toll on your health. Restorative Dentistry procedures at Yorkville Family Dental can bring your mouth back to a place where you’re smiling! Restorative Dentistry can address the following concerns...

- Orthodontics
- Invisalign OrthodonticsEach smile is different. When orthodontic treatment is necessary to maintain the health of your smile, Dr. Laguatan will create a course of treatment that is specifically tailored to your needs and desired outcome. Dr. Laguatan is skilled in many forms of orthodontic treatment, including Invisalign. Invisalign uses a series of custom-made aligners that are changed every two weeks to easily and gradually reposition your teeth. The trays can be removed so you can eat and brush your teeth as you normally would. Because the aligners are made from a transparent plastic material, they’re hardly noticeable. People may not even notice you’re wearing braces!
