Complete Dental Care in Acton
Dr. Handa is a highly trained and experienced dentist. Our office provides general, cosmetic and restorative dental services in a personalized manner. Committed to the overall well-being of all patients, Dr. Handa has focused her post-graduate coursework and continuing education on airway centered dentistry. The concepts of Airway Dentistry are incorporated into all aspects of your dental care in our office.
Airway centered dentistry enables our team to treat often complex concerns that can affect the development of young children and disrupt daily life in adult patients. Dr. Handa provides personalized, consultative care for oral health needs that can also improve symptoms such as craniofacial pain, chronic headaches, bedwetting and ADHD in children.
A healthy, comfortable smile will support good dental health. Our goal is to help you achieve optimal oral health. This includes a healthy airway that facilitates normal deep breathing and quality sleep.
Advanced Technology and Your Dentistry
Dr. Handa has incorporated advanced technology into our Acton dentist to improve your patient experience, treatment planning, and outcomes. Technology can enhance your dentistry in many ways, from digital diagnostics, including an in-office CBCT 3-D scanner, to laser dentistry. Dr. Handa will discuss how our technology can be a part of your oral health evaluation and treatment.
The use of 3-D digital scanning can provide an in-depth analysis of your complete dental oral structure. This plays a key role in the airway-centered dentistry approach and provides a foundation to create your unique treatment plan.
Dentistry and Sleep Disorders
Scheduling a consultation with your dentist to address concerns related to the quality of your sleep isn’t common. The signs of sleep apnea or a sleep-related disorder can have a wide range of causes. However, for many patients it can be traced to an airway problem.
The science is quickly evolving and supports treating the structure of the airway for a natural, permanent outcome and the resolution of many symptoms related to sleep disorders.
Dr. Handa is uniquely qualified to work with children and adults. She can identify an airway issue that can be the cause of many factors affecting your daily quality of life and well-being. These can include fatigue, headaches, weight problems and behavioral concerns in children.
We offer non-invasive treatments and therapies that can restore a healthy bite and open the airway. These treatments can help you enjoy the benefits of quality sleep each night.
Preventive Dentistry
In addition to advanced dental care, we offer cleanings, X-rays, fillings, and other general dental services. Routine dental care is a part of preventive dentistry, which helps avoid problems like cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues. A good oral hygiene routine is key to preventive care, as are regular dental visits.
When you visit our dentist regularly, we can catch issues early before they become serious. This not only saves you from discomfort but also from having to pay for expensive treatments later. Preventive dentistry helps you maintain a healthy smile and keeps your mouth in good shape for a lifetime.
