Preventive Dentistry – Franklin, TN
Preserving Beautiful Smiles
Have you ever heard someone say, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure?” This popular turn of phrase has never been truer than when it’s applied to dental care. In the early days of dentistry, patients almost exclusively visited their dentist if they had a toothache or serious infection. Today, the American Dental Association and your dedicated dental team at Paige Prather Smiles recommend that you visit us at least two times a year, so we can complete a preventive dental exam. These checkups and other general dentistry services make it possible for Dr. Paige Prather and her team to partner with every patient to prevent the majority of common oral health conditions. Call us to find out more about our dental services or schedule an appointment with our team for preventive dentistry in Franklin, TN.

Oral Hygiene & Professional
Teeth Cleanings
Regular dental checkups are the most important aspect of any oral hygiene plan at Paige Prather Smiles. Our Franklin, TN dentist and team truly look forward to seeing our patients twice a year because we care about them, but we are also passionate about helping every patient we treat achieve and maintain their optimal level of oral health. During every six month checkup, we’ll partner with you to assess your current oral hygiene routine and help you make the most of the care your smile receives on the 363 days a year we don’t get to see you. Our professional cleanings give your at-home hygiene a boost by removing plaque and tartar buildup that can lead to decay from those hard to reach areas of your smile.
