Let Our Family Care for Your Family
Family Dentistry Livingston, New Jersey
Selecting the right dental practice to care for the oral health of you and your family can be a difficult process. Obviously, you want to be sure that you are entrusting your family’s precious smiles to professionals who will consistently reward your faith in their skills. Plus, the decision you make today will influence your children’s attitudes toward dental care and oral hygiene for the rest of their lives. Faced with such a serious responsibility, you may be feeling overwhelmed by the number of dental practices out there trying to convince you to walk through their doors.
At the Silverstrom Group, we want to make the decision easy for you. We cordially invite you to let our family care for your family.
Dr. David Silverstrom has been providing exceptional dental care to patients of all ages for more than 30 years. In 2008, he proudly welcomed his son, Dr. Gary Silverstrom, into the practice. Together, the two generations of Silverstroms have transformed the smiles of hundreds of patients in a warm, friendly atmosphere where we are able to accommodate virtually any dental need.
The greatest honor we could imagine is the trust that our patients invest in us. We are particularly grateful to have served multiple generations from within families throughout the region. There is no greater privilege than having our patients bring their children in for their first dental appointments or referring their own parents to us for treatment.
We would be delighted to introduce your family to our family. Please contact our family dentistry practice in Livingston, New Jersey to schedule your complimentary consultation today.
Children’s Dentistry
At the Silverstrom Group, we recognize that, while children and adults tend to have different dental needs, they share a desire to be treated courteously and respectfully. Drs. David and Gary Silverstrom know how to communicate with children in a way that will make them feel comfortable and at ease, establishing the expectation in their minds that a trip to the dentist doesn’t have to be a chore or something to dread – it can even be fun!
At our family dentistry practice, we offer a comprehensive range of dental services designed to meet the unique needs of children and teens, including oral exams, digital x-rays, cleanings, fluoride treatments, gum disease prevention, sealants, and cavity repair.
We make every effort to teach our young patients about the importance of regular brushing and flossing, instructing them in the proper techniques that will yield the best results. Our caring dental professionals maintain a safe, nurturing environment for children so that they can learn early on that going to the dentist doesn’t have to be a scary experience.
We will devote time to building a comfortable rapport with your children, educating them about and making them active participants in their dental health. Whatever their dental needs, you can count on us to start them down the path toward a lifetime of good oral health, and be there for them every step of the way.
Sealants
To prevent cavities from forming, sealants are bonded to teeth to act as barriers against cavity-causing bacteria. Typically, they are placed on the surfaces of the back teeth, as their cracks, fissures, and deep grooves make them most vulnerable to decay.
Sealants create a smoother chewing surface so that teeth do not trap plaque as easily. These smooth surfaces also make brushing more effective. Made out of a plastic, tooth-colored composite resin, sealants are virtually indistinguishable from natural tooth matter. In fact, in most cases only a dentist can tell whether someone has sealants on his or her teeth.
Sealants are generally recommended for children and teens because grooves and fissures in teeth tend to form in childhood and adolescence. However, many adults are good candidates for sealants, as well.
