Dr. Jarrell has over 20 years of experience in providing preventive, basic, and major dental services.
PREVENTIVE SERVICES
Preventative dentistry includes services provided by your dentist to reduce the likelihood of contracting oral health conditions that can be more expensive to treat and uncomfortable to experience. Preventive dentistry services are labeled as such because they allow your dentist to monitor your oral health, promote healthy habits, prevent new disease through a variety of treatment services, and catch signs of oral health problems early. This gives you and your dentist sufficient time to identify, treat and reverse the issue.
Preventative dentistry includes the following:
- Oral Evaluations and X-rays
- Professional cleanings (Prophylaxis)
- Fluoride treatment
- Sealants

Compared to major services, basic dental services are typically fairly straightforward, non-surgical procedures.
