Protect Your Smile & Your Health With
Holistic Preventive Care

Consistent general dental care is one of the most powerful things you can do for your oral and overall health. At Bridgetown Dental, we approach your routine visits with a holistic lens. Our care supports your body’s natural balance, helps prevent chronic inflammation, and catches early signs of health concerns that often begin in the mouth. At our office, you’ll find:

Dental Cleanings and Exams

At each regular checkup, you'll receive a full dental exam, including an oral cancer screening. We'll take panoramic and bitewing X-rays to get a closer look at everything from your tooth roots to your airway and sinus structure. Your teeth are gently cleaned and polished for a fresh, healthy feeling.

Preventive Services

If we notice early signs of decay or enamel wear, Dr. Kaady may recommend remineralizing agents or tooth sealants. These options are used carefully and intentionally to protect vulnerable teeth and minimize future damage.

Gum Disease Treatment

Healthy gums are key to a healthy body. Our deep cleanings will remove harmful bacteria, plaque, and tartar around your gumline. Dr. Kaady may supplement your cleaning with ozone treatment. This natural approach kills harmful bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoans while also removing their toxic byproducts. We may also use targeted antibiotics like Arestin to eliminate bacteria and treat the infection.

Custom Mouthguards

We create personalized mouthguards for a variety of needs. This includes sports guards, bruxism appliances to reduce grinding damage, and TMJ devices that ease pressure on jaw joints. Dr. Kaady may also recommend these devices for airway-related treatment plans to minimize clenching caused by sleep-disordered breathing.

Chronic Dry Mouth Treatment

Dry mouth increases your risk of cavities, bad breath, and oral discomfort. We'll guide you through treatment options and provide high-quality products to restore balance and lasting relief.

Client Reviews

Continually the best dental care I have ever received. This is a well run, professional practice. Dr. Kaady and his wonderful staff have a thorough knowledge of dentistry and understand how the entire body and lifestyle can impact oral health. I feel incredibly fortunate that I found Bridgetown Dental.
Mary F.
Dr. Kaady is a compassionate listener but also communicates directly about your dental needs - no ambiguity whatsoever. I was a reluctant and fearful patient BEFORE seeing Dr. Kaady. Three crowns later, I think Dr. Kaady is quite amazing: fast, efficient while tending to my anxieties about pain and noise. I have great confidence in the whole team at Bridgetown.
Lora L.
As someone who has a level of anxiety around dental work, Dr. Kaady and his team put you at ease with their demeanor and by clearly outlining your treatment plan. I cannot recommend this crew enough. I have moved out of town but refuse to switch offices. I tell everyone I know to get in here.
Anthony J.
Dr. Kaady is very caring and does excellent work. He goes beyond just caring about dental. Dr. Kaady cares about your health as well. I feel very comfortable and part of the family-like atmosphere. The whole team is very friendly and always remembers you.
Susan M.
Dr. Kaady and his entire team are thorough, knowledgeable, and great communicators. My entire family has been trusting our teeth and mouth health to Bridgetown for 15 years + now. We all look and feel better due to Dr. Kaady's conscientious care.
John M.
Best dental experience I have ever had. Staff were professional and friendly. Melanie and Melissa were very helpful explained next steps and procedures. Dr Kaady was great, highly recommend this dental group.
Maria L.
5 months and several appointments getting my teeth back in shape and still a wonderful experience as a returning patient. They take the time to understand your questions and concerns. Then they provide you with the info, answers, and options for required work moving forward, scheduling, and costs. Great overall service. The office is very modern and comfortable.

Dr Kaady and all the staff that work with him at Bridgetown Dental are amazing. I have always had excellent care whether it is dental cleaning or something more serious like a filling or a crown. Not only is the atmosphere friendly but this is one of the most affordable dentists I have been to.
Jane S.
Can't say much more than that they are great! My son was treated for broken front teeth some years ago. They did such an impressive job that I decided to change dentists. Great people, and excellent work! Best dentist and assistants I have ever had!

Common Questions About General Dentistry

What is general dentistry?
General dentistry includes preventive services like cleanings, exams, and screenings that help maintain a healthy smile and support whole-body wellness. At Bridgetown Dental, Dr. Kaady takes a broader view of care, looking for signs of airway restriction, inflammation, clenching, or other early indicators of systemic health concerns. Regular general care helps prevent complex problems and keeps your smile and body in better balance.

At Bridgetown Dental, we look for signs of inflammation, clenching, sleep-disordered breathing, and other issues that may reflect broader health concerns. Routine visits help us catch early warning signs and guide you toward better long-term health, not just a better smile.
Yes, many signs of sleep-disordered breathing, such as clenching, mouth breathing, or a narrow palate, show up during routine dental exams.
