Our dental professionals prioritize ease and comfort, and our preventive dental services guarantee optimal oral hygiene from childhood to adulthood.

Regular teeth cleanings can also prevent plaque accumulation, which can potentially lead to heart disease and other severe health problems.

Typically, a routine dental appointment will consist of a comprehensive exam (evaluation of your mouth for tooth decay, periodontal disease & oral cancer) and professional cleaning. TCD Madison dentists will:
- Examine your teeth, gums and mouth for signs of disease
- Take updated x-rays of your teeth, if needed
- Perform an oral cancer screening
- Remove plaque buildup on your teeth and gums
- Answer your questions and concerns
Other dental services we offer include:
- General dentistry
- Dental implants
- Invisalign® aligners
- Porcelain veneers

- Dental care for non-insured clients
Will my insurance cover dental implants and cosmetic dentistry in Cottage Grove?
Dental insurance providers can offer portions of coverage for implants and cosmetic dental services. When you work with Total Dental Care, we'll help you maximize your dental insurance coverage, whether you have Delta that only covers cleanings with a $25 co-pay, or have no dental insurance and are paying out-of-pocket. What matters most to us is you get both effective and affordable care that fits your needs.

Signs You Need Braces as an Adult
Orthodontic treatments for adults may be needed when teeth change position due to injury or the eruption of wisdom teeth. Teeth can move and shift as we age, leading to once straight teeth becoming crooked. A retainer, or mouth appliance that helps the jaw or teeth to keep their shape, can prevent this, but not always. In these situations, Invisalign is a convenient way to quietly correct your smile without anyone noticing. Other signs you may need a form of orthodontic therapy include:
- Trouble brushing or flossing
- Discomfort or pain in the mouth
- Noticeably crooked or spaced teeth
- You had braces and have not worn a retainer
