Find dental care for the whole family in Centerville, OH

Choosing a family dentist is an important decision, and at Alex Bell Dental in Centerville, OH, we are committed to providing quality dental care for family members of all ages. Dr. Cobb has over 30 years of experience providing restorative and cosmetic dentistry services, and our team is dedicated to restoring your oral health and preventing problems before they start.

Pediatric care

Dr. Cobb starts dental visits with patients as young as three years old, and he provides education about healthy smiles with every hygiene visit. By introducing dental visits early, young patients can get used to their dental visits and grow to look forward to the attention and care they receive. Our focus with young patients is preventing cavities and gum disease so that their adult teeth can grow in straight and healthy.

As the adult teeth grow in, Dr. Cobb will monitor their placement and determine if they need orthodontic treatment to prevent issues with their oral health in the future, such as an increased risk for cavities and TMJ issues. Orthodontics can also increase confidence in teens who are unhappy with the appearance of their teeth.

Preventative treatment for adults

As you age, your mouth is more susceptible to issues such as gum disease and tooth decay. Dr. Cobb and the team will examine your teeth for issues as they develop during each check-up and remove plaque and tartar buildup to stop pathogenic bacteria from destroying your teeth. We will also guide your home care by bringing trouble spots to your attention and showing you the best way to address them.

Treating cavities as soon as possible is crucial to preventing tooth loss, and we take care to choose the best possible materials and therapies for your body to ensure the best possible outcome for every treatment. We also provide a variety of cosmetic treatments to address issues such as teeth staining, gummy smiles, or damaged and uneven teeth.

Our holistic approach to advanced care

Our staff avoids the use of fluoride and harsh chemicals, and we always choose biocompatible treatments to minimize the effects of restorations on your body. We avoid surgeries whenever possible and instead focus on helping your body heal naturally using advanced, gentle techniques such as root scaling, planing and laser dentistry. That means we’ll never use metal fillings, and we can treat cavities without needles or a dental drill.

Our practice is committed to providing mercury-free restorations that blend in naturally with your smile, including zirconia dental implants and ceramic crowns. These sturdy materials will reduce the risk of inflammation and other reactions, as well as providing a natural look and feel to your smile.

Dr. Cobb and the dental team will take as much time as needed in each visit to address your needs and answer all of your questions with a smile.
