Cleaning | Comprehensive Exam | Flouride Treatment | Oral Cancer Screening
The American Dental Association recommends you see your dentist every six months. Preventive dental care can help you reduce or avoid future costs by preventing and finding potential issues sooner. Because many diseases and conditions first show signs in your mouth, good dental health and a strong relationship with your dental office are important steps in your overall health
The doctor will review all findings and discuss possible treatment options to help you achieve the smile you deserve.
Fluoride can be an important part of preventing tooth decay in patients of all ages. During your visit, we will determine your risk for dental decay by discussing your diet, home care, previous decay history, illnesses and prescription medications. Fluoride treatment can be done in the office, or at home.
In the office: Treatment can be done during your regular exam using a tray with gel or foam fluoride. A more highly concentrated fluoride varnish that is brushed onto your teeth can also be used.
At home: Options for fluoride treatment include prescription toothpastes or a daily rinse. It is important to follow all recommendations made by your dentist and to also be aware of the fluoride levels in your water.
Oral cancer can be life-threatening if not diagnosed and treated early. Route 64 Dental provides oral cancer screenings as part of your regular dental exam. There are two main risk factors for oral cancer. Smoking and tobacco use are long-term historic causes of oral cancer. In addition, the HPV-16 virus, a sexually-transmitted disease, is resulting in the fastest-growing segment of oral cancer patients being young, healthy, nonsmoking individuals.
When found early, oral cancers have an 80 to 90 percent survival rate. Dentists can be a first line of defense in identifying abnormalities in the mouth, which could be a sign of oral cancer.

I have been going to Dr. Remus for more than 20 years. I am convinced of his level of skill, competence, and genuine regard for his patients. You will not find a better dentist in Kane county, and possibly the state of Illinois. For example, my last visit was for a cleaning and check up. He found a small problem and suggested I schedule an appointment within the next month or so. As I was trying to establish an appointment at the front desk he called my name and offered to just go ahead and do the procedure right then and there. I was absolutely delighted. It saved me from making another appointment and trip to the dentist. Update: The staff at Route 64 dental are the best. Since my last appointment they have added new staff including a dental hygienist, Hayley, who fits right into their amazing staff. Her work was thorough and done with gentleness and with a genuine concern for my comfort. She demonstrated a very thoughtful and concerned approach even to the point her offer of dental floss to use at home as I was leaving. You'll leave this place with your best smile, painlessly. Another update: Just had my routine checkup and, as usual, left the office with the best care - along with good advice - that you could get from a dentist. Following the expert advice of Dr. Remus and the hygienist, my teeth and gums have immensely improved. ....oh, and now for about the third or fourth cleaning by the hygienist, Hayley, I left the place thinking how comfortable their new method is compared to the old way of scraping each tooth. Route 64 Dental now uses a state of the art method of high water pressure to clean your teeth and Hayley has apparently mastered the method remarkably. Her technique is not only tons more comfortable, it obviously does a much better job, at least as seen in my mouth. Hey! Check out my healthy gums...finally!!
