Preventive Dentistry

Dentistry goes beyond treating problems — it focuses on prevention! Lakeside Dental in Folsom takes pride in helping you and your family avoid cavities, gum disease, and other oral health complications. Regular checkups and good oral hygiene can protect your teeth for life!

Preventive Dentistry Services at Lakeside Dental

  • Dental Exams — We carefully look for gum disease, cavities, cysts, tumors, and other oral health issues and then offer treatment recommendations.
  • Dental Cleanings — Professional cleanings remove harmful bacteria and tartar buildup from your teeth and gums. This protects your tooth enamel and promotes a lifetime of healthy gums.
  • X-Rays and Digital Imaging — X-rays and intraoral cameras provide a detailed view of what lies below and above the surface. Hidden cavities, cysts, abscesses, and even hairline cracks in enamel become visible with digital visualization techniques, allowing prompt treatment before problems worsen.
  • Gum Disease Treatment — Gum disease destroys tissue and bone, leading to tooth loss—even when teeth are otherwise healthy. Early treatment prevents severe damage.
  • Custom Mouthguards & Nightguards – Sports injuries and teeth grinding damage teeth. Custom mouthguards and nightguards protect against fractures, tooth loss, and excessive wear. Unlike generic options, custom mouthguards provide superior comfort and effectiveness.

Smile Success Stories

I have an interesting background regarding my teeth. I won't bore anyone with the details but I was without good care for a very very long time. My second dental visit of my life was only a short year ago. (at another location) and this dentist was very mean to me. They criticized my brushing habits and the fact that I hadn't been to a dentist, even after my explanation of why. and then continued to treat me poorly just because they thought I had terrible hygiene. (I brush everyday like I am supposed to) When I came to see Dr. Rocky after my 4 months of torture he was very much the opposite. He sat next to me and let me explain all the hell I'd been through and was truly concerned with how turned off I was. He took one look inside my mouth and found something my other dentist didn't. Fixed it immediately, and almost called the other location just to yell at him for the awful job he did. He said they didn't do a thorough cleaning and said that one of the fillings they gave me was now infected due to the fact that they didn't sterilize before filling it and now I needed a root canal. YAY ME. Well none of this was Dr. Rocky's fault and I commend him for being so honest and quick with his work. He has been so thorough in everything he's done and never failed to explain everything. Always there to let me ask any questions. I have now seen him and his brother, who did my root canal, he's a specialist and they didn't want to take any chances. Not to mention I have brought my entire family here. They see his wife Dr. Cathy who is also wonderful. Please just come talk to them. You will not regret it.
