Valley Dental Health offers cosmetic, restorative, and general dental services to patients from Phoenix, MD. As a family-friendly dentist’s office, we treat patients of all ages, including children. Dr. Roham Rafat and Dr. Ashley Izadi are both highly trained dentists. They possess the knowledge and experience needed to diagnose and treat everything from common oral health concerns to complex dental problems.
Family Dentistry
Valley Dental Health offers pediatric dental services and sees children starting at age 3. By this time, children should have all of their primary teeth. Early dentist appointments allow your child to get to know us and get used to our office. Then, we can build a trusting patient-dentist relationship. Additionally, this helps avoid the development of dental anxiety or fear of the dentist later on in life.
Drs. Rafat and Izadi will take the time to educate patients on the importance of both routine dental care and effective at-home oral hygiene. Prevention is the key to lifelong dental health, and the foundation of our family dental practice.
At each visit, you can expect a full exam, x-rays, and a dental cleaning. During the exam, we will be looking for dental concerns such as gum disease, tooth decay, and signs of oral cancer. Sometimes, further dental care is needed if you are diagnosed with a dental issue.
X-rays are taken once a year unless there is a problem. We may need to take additional x-rays and other diagnostics to help diagnose and treat the problem. Our registered dental hygienists are gentle yet thorough while cleaning your teeth. They will remove all the plaque hiding in your mouth and then polish your teeth.
Treating Periodontal Disease in Phoenix, MD
Dr. Rafat specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease. He offers personalized periodontal therapy for patients who have any stage of gum disease. This includes both surgical and non-surgical procedures.
Gum disease is very common. However, it is also easy to avoid. Dr. Rafat and Dr. Izadi recommend that patients visit their dentist’s office twice a year for an examination and professional teeth cleaning. This allows us to spot developing dental problems in the early stages when treatment is more conservative and less costly.
Healthy gums create the foundation for healthy teeth. Additionally, maintaining periodontal health can reduce the risk of many dental problems, including tooth loss.
Solutions for Missing or Damaged Teeth
Dr. Rafat and Dr. Izadi are known for solving complex dental problems. We provide a full menu of services to treat the issues and help restore function. Valley Dental Health offers full dental implant services under one roof. Dental implants are the best available option to replace missing teeth.
We can replace any number of missing using implant fixtures and a dental prosthesis. Dr. Rafat will perform the surgical placement of the implant fixtures. After three to six months of healing time, we will restore them with a dental crown, dental bridge, or denture.
Sedation Dentistry in Phoenix, MD
Valley Dental Health offers sedation dentistry for patients that suffer from dental anxiety or avoid the dentist due to fear. Over the years, we have learned that is a common problem. Dr. Rafat and Dr. Izadi are both non-judgemental dentists that want their patients to get the dental care they need.
In addition to oral sedation and nitrous oxide, we also offer IV sedation. Dr. Rafat is one of the few Baltimore area dentists with the training and certification required to administer IV sedation. In many cases, it allows us to perform several dental treatments during a single visit. Patients with complex dental problems can get the care they need without anxiety and discomfort.
