What to Look For in a Family Dentist
When choosing a dentist to treat your family, there are several aspects to consider:
Experience – Dr. Clemmons has 25 years of experience in helping patients of all ages receive the dental care they need. He is dedicated to making sure you have a positive experience.
Technology – State-of-the-art dental technology enables Dr. Clemmons to visualize areas of concern accurately and efficiently. We use the latest digital x-ray technology and intraoral cameras to diagnose conditions and develop individual treatment plans.
Education and Prevention - Routine dental visits are important to promoting a healthy smile and your child will also need to care for their own teeth at home for overall, long-lasting oral health. Dr. Clemmons focuses on education and the fundamentals of a good home care routine, including proper brushing techniques, the right diet, and the avoidance of sugary drinks and snacks.
Building a Healthy Smile
Early dental care is important in preventing decay and the damage it can cause to a young patient’s teeth. Our Fort Smith dentist sees children as young as seven, taking the same gentle, considerate approach with these little ones as he does with all patients.
Your child’s first visit involves a thorough dental exam and cleaning. When necessary to safeguard against cavities, fluoride treatment may be provided at a subsequent visit. As a reward for their winning smile and participation, children at our practice receive a prize after their visit.
Protecting your Teeth with Dental Appliances
Our practice provides custom-fit dental appliances to keep existing oral health conditions from becoming worse and as therapeutic options to proactively address potential issues. For instance, when patients experience bruxism (teeth grinding), Dr. Clemmons may recommend night guards to prevent damage to teeth and the development of TMJ dysfunction (TMD). We also offer sports guards for those who participate in athletics or other vigorous activities.

Our patients soon become a part of our extended family. There is no greater reward than when one of Dr. Clemmons young patients has grown up and then brings in their own child for their first visit. We are also honored to have our long-time patients bring in their parents, taking special care to provide treatment that is appropriate to meet their needs.
