When it comes to the oral health of your family, finding a dentist office that you can trust to use the safest techniques, the latest research, and technologies, and a compassionate approach can be a challenge. At Eastland Dental Center in Bloomington, IL, we strive to provide much more than a traditional dental practice with a comprehensive treatment approach that emphasizes the oral-systemic health connection— all while our friendly team of dental professionals keeps you comfortable and relaxed in our warm and inviting office.
At Eastland Dental Center, we put your family’s health and wellness first and provide dental care that emphasizes the intricate connection between your oral health and systemic issues in the body. For example, patients with diabetes are more likely to develop gum disease, and gum disease has been linked to many serious health issues such as cardiovascular disease and strokes. Other conditions such as sleep apnea can also have harmful consequences and often mild cases can be treated with a dental appliance.
Dr. Mike Milligan and Dr. Marisa Milligan are very thorough in their diagnosis and every recommendation and treatment that they provide is carefully planned. Each therapy is designed to not just restore health to your teeth and gums, but also promote wellness throughout your whole body. From gentle, conservative treatments to prevent and address issues such as decay and disease to airway-focused therapies and other treatments to optimize your breathing, posture, and sleep.
Preventive care is at the core of our dental practice. By avoiding dental health issues through routine professional cleanings, excellent home care, and other preventive treatments such as fluoride treatments and dental sealants, you can protect your smile and your health and avoid unnecessary costs and time in the dental chair.
However, we understand that everyone’s situation is different, and sometimes genetics, hormonal changes, and other issues can make your teeth and gums more susceptible to disease, in addition to accidents and injuries that can affect the appearance and health of your smile. We offer the following dental treatments;
In addition, we use the latest dental technologies to be able to provide the best possible care and promote better oral health.
