General Dentistry


Little boy learning to brush teethAt Estacada Dental, we pride ourselves on treating every member of the family. Family dentistry is focused on preventing potential complications, rather than treating them. If you and your family are in need of professional dental services, we can help!

Dental Exams


•  Comprehensive Exams: These thorough examinations are typically reserved for new patients establishing in our office and for returning patients we haven't seen in a while. Dr. Kostenko performs an oral cancer screening, TMJ (jaw joint) evaluation, occlusal classification, periodontal diagnosis, dental examination and comprehensive treatment planning tailored for your specific peak health needs.
•  Periodic (Routine) Exams:The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends a routine check-up up roughly twice a year. A routine appointment with Dr. Kostenko will typically include a professional cleaning and a detailed examination of your teeth, gums, and other oral tissues.
•  Emergency Exams: This exam type is limited to the area of immediate pain. Our focus is to identify the source of your pain and help alleviate the pain as soon as possible.

Dentistry for Kids


Professional dental care is a crucial part of your child's oral health. Be sure to schedule your child's first appointment by the time their first teeth erupt, or before their first birthday. Scheduling regular appointments allows us to monitor the development of their oral health. Developmental problems are easier to treat in the beginning stages.

As your child grows older, we can establish a strong foundation for their oral health, one that will ensure a lifetime of healthy, beautiful teeth.

Fluoride Treatment


Fluoride is a naturally-occurring mineral found in many of our foods and beverages. It is also a useful tool in fighting tooth decay. Every day, our teeth lose and gain minerals through the processes of demineralization and remineralization. If the process of demineralization exceeds that of remineralization tooth decay will occur.

Professional fluoride treatment allows us to supplement the process of remineralization and prevent potential decay. It can even reverse minor instances of decay. Fluoride treatment is particularly beneficial for patients at a greater risk of tooth decay, such as children, teens, and seniors.
Discover how fluoride treatment can help prevent decay for you and your family.

Dental Sealants


A dental sealant is a thin, plastic coating that prevents cavities and tooth decay. Sealants are usually applied to the occlusal (bite) surface of the molars and premolars. These teeth possess deep grooves and fissures that are much harder to clean, especially for children and teenagers. Sometimes the grooves are so thin that the bristles of a toothbrush are rendered essentially ineffective. A sealant will provide a more even brushing surface and seal off the enamel from harmful bacteria. Preventing tooth decay will ensure your child’s smile remains beautiful for years to come!
Learn more about dental sealants and how they help prevent decay.

Sports Mouthguards


If you participate in physical activities that put you at risk for dental trauma or injury, we strongly recommend a mouthguard. A mouthguard will protect your teeth and prevent dental emergencies.

Night Guards


If you suffer from bruxism (teeth grinding), we may also recommend a night guard. Many patients with bruxism tend to grind their teeth during sleep. A night guard acts as a barrier that prevents enamel wear.
Learn more about how a night guard could improve your sleep.

Sleep Apnea


One of the most common treatments for sleep apnea is mouthguards. These help to bring your lower jaw forward when you are sleeping at night. This helps because sleep apnea is often caused by blocked airways when the jaw slips backward at night.
Find out how we can help you get the sleep you need.

TMJ/TMD


TMD (temporomandibular joint dysfunction) is characterized by the dysfunction of the temporomandibular joints (TMJ), which causes severe pain to the joints, the jawbone, and the surrounding muscles.
Learn more about how to find relief for TMD.
