These services include: preventive services, such as helping to maintain good oral health by stopping disease before it takes hold in the mouth; restorative services, like receiving timely and appropriate treatment when a problem is identified; as well as cosmetic services, such as performing a range of cosmetic procedures, such as teeth whitening, cosmetic bonding – even porcelain veneers.
