Pain, sensitivity, swollen gums, and discoloration are signs that you may have a cavity or tooth decay. If you’re in pain, don’t delay, as dental health impacts your whole-body health. Dr. Remy Ajluni will identify the cause of your oral concern and personalize your treatment plan.
A proactive approach is the best approach. Going to the dentist every 6 months catches cavities early on, minimizing the amount of work required to restore your oral health and smile. Taylor Made Dental in Taylor provides meticulous teeth cleaning and comprehensive dental exams.

Dental health is whole-body health! If your teeth or gums hurt, don’t delay in scheduling your appointment.
Cavities and Tooth Decay in Taylor
Cavities and tooth decay can occur, even if you brush and floss twice daily. The team at Taylor Made Dental is dedicated to helping you keep your natural teeth healthy and strong. Regular exams help you adjust your at-home routine as your oral health and whole-body health evolve. Let’s get started!
We know how busy your schedule is. Six months can fly by in the blink of an eye, making it easy to put off your teeth cleaning and exam—but a lot can change in six months. The ecosystem of your teeth, gums, and oral tissues can change rapidly. These changes don’t only impact your oral health, they provide clues to your whole-body health. Our team of oral experts helps you take a proactive approach and address issues as early as possible.
Brushing and flossing alone isn’t enough to effectively remove plaque and tartar buildup. If not regularly removed from the teeth and gumline, bacteria will grow. This increases your risk of cavities, tooth decay, gum disease, bad breath, and other oral health concerns. It takes more time to treat these issues than it does to prioritize regular dental care. Feel free to schedule your entire family at the same time!
Common Signs of Cavities and Tooth Decay
If you stay up to date with your exams, you’re far less likely to experience the symptoms below:
Bad breath
Toothache
Constant or shooting pain
Pain when eating
Sensitivity to heat
Sensitivity to cold
Discomfort when brushing
Discomfort when flossing
Red and inflamed gums
Visible holes in your teeth
Black or brown discoloration
Any changes to your oral health
If you aren’t experiencing the symptoms above but it’s been more than 6 months since your last teeth cleaning and exam—it’s time to schedule an appointment!
Routine Dental Care in Taylor
Addressing the symptoms above begins with a comprehensive dental exam. Our dental hygienist will clean your teeth and meticulously remove the plaque and tartar from your teeth and gumline. We’ll also take X-rays so that Dr. Remy Ajluni can assess what is occurring inside your teeth and below the gumline.
Be sure to inform us of any changes in oral health, even if they seem insignificant. For example, if you’re experiencing dry mouth. It might seem inconsequential, but reduced saliva increases your odds of tooth decay and gum disease. We also want to identify the cause of your dry mouth.
Once per year, we perform a VELscope oral cancer screening to detect abnormalities early, ensuring the best possible outcomes.
Treating Cavities and Tooth Decay in Taylor
Once our dental team identifies the cause of your pain or sensitivity, we’ll provide you with your options. Your treatment plan will be personalized to your individual needs and whole-body health. To preserve your smile, we restore your teeth with matching porcelain fillings and cutting-edge caps, crowns, veneers, and implants.
We empower you to take an active role in keeping your teeth healthy and your smile bright. During your visit, we’ll discuss how to fortify your teeth against further cavities and decay by providing personalized oral health suggestions. A few small changes to your at-home oral hygiene routine can make a world of difference.
We suggest scheduling a routine dental exam and teeth cleaning every 6 months for most patients. However, your individual oral health, age, and underlying conditions may warrant more frequent visits.
For example, if you have periodontal disease, we may schedule visits every 3 to 4 months.
A routine dental checkup with teeth cleaning, X-rays, and an exam takes between 45 and 60 minutes. This includes providing you with personalized oral health recommendations.
If you require a filling, root canal, extraction, or other restorative or cosmetic procedures your appointment is likely to take more than 60 minutes, sometimes several hours. It may take multiple appointments to restore your oral health.
Quality dental care isn’t something that can be rushed. We’re happy to advise on a timeframe for each appointment.
I usually have horrible experiences with dentists, but I’ve been with Taylor made Dental for the last 8 years and they have been nothing but professional and very knowledgeable. They are always organized and on top of it all. The staff is amazing and kind. From the moment you step into that office until you walk out they make you feel like you’re in the right place. Explain every procedure before it’s done. They make you feel comfortable and confident about the outcome. They truly make it a great experience.
Everyone is always very nice and professional. They do very good work too. The office is very clean and inviting. I would recommend this dental office to family and friends.
I’ve been going to Taylor Made Dental since the end of 2024 and I can’t say enough great things about this practice. I am in the middle of getting my first implant and it has been a pain free experience! Didn’t expect that! The dentists are kind and friendly and the staff is wonderful.
just the most awesome place you could go to get your teeth fixed!!! Dr. Ali and every dentist and assistant there are the absolute best! I couldn't imagine a better place to get my teeth taken care of. So kind, friendly and caring, something that a lot of places cannot say. If I could give this review 10 stars star I would. You guys are the absolute best!
Amazing care. The only dentist office I will ever go to. Hygienist Lindsay is the best! Dr Ajluni and his staff provide excellent dental care with compassion and modern technology. The front staff are friendly, patient and understanding. Janice, Jen and Debbie are wonderful.
I feared the dentist because I had a couple really bad ones .I hadn't been to a dentist in a little over six years .But I'm extremely glad I came here they are amazing! And I don't fear the dentist anymore! Highly recommend 100%

I have been looking for a good dentist for months now I found Taylor made dental and they are amazing they made me feel welcomed and comfortable the best dentist I’ve ever been to.
I've been going to Taylor Made Dental for about 13 years! They do great work! They're professional and caring! I no longer live in the area but I only trust them with my teeth!
I recommend this place. My husband and son come here, too. They do a wonderful job. They explain everything that they are going to do to your teeth and done in a timely matter. I'm not a big fan about going to the dentist but this place makes me feel very comfortable.
I Had a great experience with my deep clean. Alyson did a wonderful job and was very gentle with my teeth. She was also very polite to me the entire visit. I would recommend Taylor made to friends or family.
Every time I’ve been here they have been nice and professional. When I went in to get a cavity filled and told them I was nervous they were very understanding and nice! Made me feel comfortable
My husband and I have been going to Taylor Made Dental for years! It is by far the best dental experience I have ever had! Dr. Remy, and Dr Mike are both amazing, and all of the staff is exceptional! Everyone is so welcoming, fun, friendly, and professional! I just finished up my Invisalign, and am extremely happy with the results!
Truly a pleasant experience. Glad I could find a dentist close to home that provides cheerful and excellent service (Alyson is a top tier hygienist, and just delightful) and a staff that seems to love what they do. Added bonus - had a very thorough cleaning and exactly zero discomfort afterwards.
Best dental office ever. I always have such a great experience and feel genuinely cared for every time I go in. The team makes you feel comfortable and at ease.<br>Erin did the best cleaning I’ve ever had, so thorough and gentle. Dr. Ali is always super helpful and amazing. I’ve never experienced any pain. Highly recommend.
Let’s just say I don’t like going to the dentist but I had to cause you know I want to keep my teeth. I was taken care of by a wonderful woman named Erin. Who just so happens to be one of the Registered dental hygienist. She made my visit as painless as possible even opting to use alternative tools to make my experience as painless as possible on top of making me feel comfortable being there. I will definitely be back for my next check up and if it’s allowed I would like Erin please.<br><br>Thank you Taylor Made Dental 😊
Always a pleasant experience...from the front office to the chair. (Even though it's a dental office, lol.) I followed Dr. Remy from a previous office. Excellent decision. Thanks to all.
Thought I would be there a lot longer than I was. Had my permanent bridge done, I was out in no time. I did not have any pain before or after. Staff is fantastic.
I have been a patient at the Taylor Location for a few years, this past year I have now brought my young children to be seen by the amazing staff here. I will always recommend Taylor Made Dental, they make you feel like you’re seen and heard.
Absolutely a great dentist office. Lindsey my hygienist was great along with Dr. Remy. I needed a root canal done & Lisa along with Dr. Ali fun & yet very professional. Great experience. Have been going here since 2019. Good group of people.
I called for a last minute appointment, bit of an emergency. They were able to get her in that day within 2 hours.<br>The staff was friendly and amazing as usual.
