General (preventive) dentistry is an essential part of good health, both for the benefits of keeping up with oral health and the connection with your overall health. At Blue Heron Dentistry, we help you and your entire family maintain your oral hygiene and health.

By taking an integrative approach to our family dentistry services, we see how your dental health connects to your overall well-being. This means we provide general dentistry with dental exams, teeth cleanings and gum disease treatment, while also considering the broader picture of underlying causes and whole health and wellness. We’re ready to support the health of your whole family at our office in Copley, OH.

Exams and Cleanings

We provide comprehensive exams to better understand the oral health of you and your whole family. This shows us a complete picture of your oral health and hygiene, including a deep look within your teeth crowns and roots with the help of X-rays. We can see whether there are any problems we need to address, such as tooth decay.

We also provide routine cleanings to all ages through our family dentistry services. Our team will remove tartar and plaque to keep your teeth and gums clean and prevent problems. We’ll also guide you on proper dental hygiene techniques so you can keep up with the maintenance of your oral health at home.

We promote preventive healthcare as it keeps you from needing extensive and costly dental work in the future. It also helps prevent dental problems from impacting the health of the rest of your body, as oral health is connected to heart health and other areas.

Preventive Resin Restoration (PRR)

Paint away decay! Preventive Restoration Resin (dental sealants) is a highly effective way of protecting the biting surface of the teeth from decay. Our simple procedure involves “painting” a tooth-colored acrylic onto the tooth surface to seal the deepest grooves where cavities often start.

Reduced Radiation X-Rays

Blue Heron Dentistry uses high-tech digital X-Rays that are tied into a state-of-the-art computer system. Images instantly appear on a high definition flat screen monitor giving unparalleled clarity and detail. Using digital X-Rays drastically cuts down the amount of radiation exposure and saves time. Because of digital technology, we no longer have to rely on chemicals for X-Ray processing and the use of traditional X-Ray films.

Consultations on Dental Problems

During your visit, you can discuss any dental and health concerns you have with our dentist Dr. Maze and with our dental hygienists. Mention any tooth or mouth pain, discomfort or other symptoms you may have been experiencing. Also, let us know about trouble sleeping, which can connect to your dental care if you have certain problems like sleep apnea or tooth grinding during sleep. You can also let us know if you’d like to improve the appearance of your teeth, as we could offer teeth whitening or other cosmetic dentistry services.

In addition, our team will check during your visit for any current problems with your teeth, gums or jaw. We may notice things like cracked teeth, signs of gum disease, tooth decay or other concerns. In this case, we’ll discuss the problem with you and potential treatments. We personalize solutions to each case, taking into account each person’s dental situation, preferences and overall health. We may recommend restorative treatments to restore the look and function of your mouth. These could include services like fillings, a root canal, periodontal therapy for gum disease or other options.

Blue Heron Dentistry is an exceptional practice. I have a great fear of dentistry.
Their hygienist comforted me and made the experience better than I had anticipated.
Dr. Maze did an exceptional job restoring my two cavities,
making it a pain free experience. I would recommend this office to all of my friends.
