Let Us Help You Preserve Your Beautiful Smile

At Felton Dentistry, general dentistry goes well beyond a twice-yearly cleaning. We offer a full range of services designed to keep your teeth healthy at every stage of life, and to catch problems early before they become bigger ones.

Dental Cleanings and Exams

Your checkup is more than a polish and a pat on the back. Every visit includes a thorough professional cleaning, a comprehensive dental exam, and screenings for oral cancer and TMJ concerns. It’s the most important appointment you’ll make all year.

Gum Disease Treatment

Gum disease is one of the most common, and most preventable, oral health conditions. If we detect early signs, we act fast. Our treatment approach combines deep cleaning, targeted product recommendations, and when necessary, antibiotic therapy to help your gums heal and stay healthy.

Tooth Sealants

Think of sealants as a protective shield for your back teeth. We apply a thin, invisible coating to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars, sealing out the bacteria and food particles that cause cavities. It’s a quick, painless procedure with big long-term benefits, especially for kids and teens.

Fluoride Treatments and Varnishes

Professional fluoride treatments are one of the simplest ways to protect your teeth from decay. Applied directly to the enamel, fluoride strengthens your teeth’s natural defenses and can even reverse early-stage cavities before they become a problem. We’ll recommend the right option for your age and risk level.

Nutritional Counseling

What you eat shows up in your smile. Sugary snacks, acidic drinks, and even certain healthy foods can wear away enamel or feed cavity-causing bacteria over time. Our team will walk you through simple, practical changes to your diet that protect your teeth, and support your overall health while they’re at it.

Custom Mouth guards and Night Guards

Whether you’re hitting the field or grinding your teeth in your sleep, a custom-fit guard from Felton Dentistry offers far better protection than anything you’ll find at a drugstore. Athletic mouthguards protect against impact injuries, while night guards cushion against the damage caused by bruxism (teeth grinding), including worn enamel, jaw pain, and cracked teeth.

Dry Mouth Treatment

Chronic dry mouth is more than uncomfortable, it raises your risk of cavities, bad breath, and gum irritation because saliva plays a critical role in protecting your teeth. Our team will help identify what’s causing your dry mouth and recommend effective over-the-counter or prescription solutions to bring relief and protect your oral health.

Preventive Dental Care in Chester, VA

The best dental bill is a small one, and preventive care helps keep it that way. At Felton Dentistry, we believe a little attention today can prevent bigger problems and expenses tomorrow.

Preventive dentistry means staying ahead of dental issues through regular exams, cleanings, digital X-rays, and screenings for concerns like gum disease and oral cancer. Most preventive services are also covered in full or in part by dental insurance.

Because we offer pediatric dental services as well as adult and senior dentistry, we encourage patients of all ages to do a few simple activities to positively impact their dental health. From infants to adults, taking care of your teeth is a lifelong and worthwhile endeavor.

Brush your teeth twice a day
Floss at least once per day
Use mouthwash regularly
Get routine x-rays
Identify health issues that could affect your oral health as well

Avoid smoking and tobacco products
Pay attention to teeth grinding and see your dentist to help reduce it
Use a mouth guard when playing sports
Limit foods that can harm tooth enamel such as soda, acidic foods, sports drinks and sugar

When you take preventive care of your teeth and gums, you can potentially avoid the need for restorative services such as fillings, extractions, root canals, or dental implants.

Less Time in the Chair. Less Money Out of Pocket. Less to Worry About.

We’ve seen it firsthand for over three decades: patients who prioritize preventive care almost always end up with better outcomes, lower costs, and a lot less dental anxiety. It’s not complicated, it’s just consistency.

The team at Felton Dentistry is here to make that consistency easy. We’ll remind you when it’s time to come in, walk you through every step of your care, and never recommend a treatment you don’t genuinely need. Whether you’re brand new to our practice or a patient of 20 years, you’ll always be treated like family.

Your smile works hard for you every single day. Let us help you take care of it.

Book Your Next Appointment

As the saying goes, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”
