Complete Checkups Keep Your Smile Healthy

Dr. Fitts suggests that patients visit us twice a year for routine checkups. This helps us watch your oral health closely and catch any problems early.

Your visit includes more than just a basic cleaning and exam. Our team performs an oral cancer screening so we can spot this disease early. We also look for signs of gum disease to catch and treat infections before they harm your gums and teeth.

When necessary, we'll take X-rays to get a close look at your tooth roots, bones, and nerves. This helps us find any issues that could cause you trouble later on.

Extra Protection for Stronger Teeth

Based on your exam results, we may suggest treatments to keep your smile in great shape. Fluoride treatments help prevent cavities by making your tooth enamel stronger. Fluoride can even reverse early tooth decay.

Tooth sealants are thin plastic layers we apply to certain teeth. They work like raincoats for your teeth by creating a barrier against harmful bacteria.

These simple treatments provide powerful protection for your smile.

Call East Limestone Family Dental today at 256-229-3416 to schedule your dental cleanings and exams in Athens, AL. Let's work together to keep your smile healthy.

Dr Fitts and his staff always deliver 5-Star service. Most people are afraid of the dentist - if so, you are going to the wrong dentist - East Limestone Family Dental is TOP of the CLASS! Update. April 2024. Still awesome!! Update October 2024- How can a dentist's office be so awesome? Do whatever Dr Fitts, Micki and team are doing. Jan 2026 - Been going here for 18 years. Love Dr Fitts and his staff. Great dentistry, but also, plays great music - if you ask :) May 2026. Always great care. Less than good music this last time.. even though we had a deal to play rock. Lucky for me, Micki was quick and made sure my ears didn't hurt too long.

It's a great place to go to have dental work. My next visit was to have a crown. It was a perfect visit in every way. We started on time. The assistant was terrific. She explained what she was doing and had a very calming personality. I was amazed that when everything was finished, they did not need to make any adjustments. It fit perfectly! Hurray for technology and hurray for those who know how to use it! It is wonderful to be able to go in and within a couple of hours have the work completed.
