Dental Hygiene

At SmileCrafter, we believe in crafting smiles that radiate confidence and health. Our comprehensive dental services, encompassing orthodontic braces, dental hygiene, dental implants, and sedation options, are designed to address a wide range of dental needs. This guide aims to provide insightful information into how these services can transform your dental health and overall wellbeing.

Orthodontic Braces: Perfecting Your Smile

Orthodontic braces are not just about straightening teeth; they are about crafting a smile that boosts your confidence. At SmileCrafter, we offer a variety of braces options tailored to individual needs and preferences. From traditional metal braces that offer reliability and effectiveness, to more aesthetic options like ceramic braces and clear aligners, we ensure every patient finds their perfect fit. The journey with braces may range from a few months to a few years, but the result is a beautifully aligned smile that lasts a lifetime.

Dental Hygiene: The Heart of Oral Health

Dental hygiene is the foundation of good oral health. At SmileCrafter, we emphasize the importance of regular and effective dental care routines. Our team provides comprehensive guidance on maintaining optimal oral hygiene, especially for those with orthodontic braces. We educate our patients on effective brushing and flossing techniques, the importance of fluoride, and the role of diet in dental health. Regular professional cleanings and check-ups at our clinic also play a crucial role in preventing dental diseases and ensuring the longevity of your dental treatments.

Dental Implants: A Gateway to Restored Functionality

For those missing one or several teeth, dental implants represent a revolutionary solution. SmileCrafter specializes in implantology, offering durable and aesthetically pleasing implants that replicate the look and function of natural teeth. Our dental implants are crafted from high-quality materials and are anchored securely into the jawbone, providing a stable and long-lasting solution. By restoring the ability to chew and speak comfortably, dental implants significantly enhance the quality of life for our patients.

Sedation Options: Ensuring Comfort and Ease

Understanding that dental procedures can be daunting, SmileCrafter offers a variety of sedation options to ensure patient comfort. Whether it’s a simple cleaning or a more complex procedure like implant placement, we provide sedation options ranging from mild (like nitrous oxide) to more profound (such as IV sedation or general anesthesia). Our expert team will help you choose the most appropriate sedation method, ensuring a stress-free and comfortable dental experience.

Our integration of orthodontic braces, dental hygiene practices, advanced dental implants, and patient-centered sedation options reflect our commitment to excellence.

History

Long before Indiana became a state, long before the founding of Schererville, people called the area the “Crossroads,” as several Native American trails intersected here, that later became routes for the wagons of settlers traveling west.

One of those settlers was Nicholas Scherer, who was born in 1830 at Scheuern,[9] today part of Tholey, Saarland, in southwestern Germany, who arrived in the U.S. in 1846. When he came to this place at the southern tip of Lake Michigan in 1865, he founded the community that bears his name.[10]

Today, trails still cross at Schererville, the modern trails of a motorized society, U.S. Highways 41 and 30. Nearby are newer trails, I-80/94 and I-65. All these are primary transcontinental routes and gives Schererville its slogan: “Crossroads of the Nation.”

The town was named one of the “100 Best Places to Live in the U.S.” by Money Magazine in 2007.
