Healthy smiles start with consistent, gentle preventive care. At Hilltop Family Dentistry, we care for your whole family — from your child’s first visit to your own routine checkups — in one warm, welcoming Casper office.
Why regular dental care matters
Most dental problems are easier, more comfortable, and less expensive to treat when they’re caught early. Routine visits let us stop small issues before they become painful ones.
According to the CDC, about 21% of U.S. adults aged 20–64 have untreated tooth decay, and 42% of adults aged 30 and older have some form of gum disease — much of which is preventable with regular cleanings and exams. The CDC also notes that adults who go more than a year without a dental visit have markedly higher rates of periodontitis.
What general dentistry includes
- Cleanings & exams — remove plaque and tartar and catch problems early
- Digital X-rays — low-radiation imaging for a complete picture of your dental health
- Tooth-colored fillings — natural-looking, mercury-free fillings that bond to your tooth
- Tooth extractions — gentle, comfortable removal when a tooth can’t be saved
- Children’s dentistry — kid-friendly visits that build healthy habits for life
- Oral cancer screenings — a quick, potentially life-saving check at every exam
A comfortable experience for the whole family
We take the time to listen, explain, and make every visit stress-free — whether it’s a six-month cleaning or a same-day toothache.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I visit the dentist? +
For most patients, a cleaning and exam every six months keeps your smile healthy and catches issues early. If you have gum disease or other risk factors, we may recommend more frequent visits.
When should my child first see a dentist? +
The American Dental Association recommends a first visit by your child’s first birthday, or within six months of their first tooth appearing.
Are dental X-rays safe? +
Yes. We use low-dose digital X-rays that produce a fraction of the radiation of traditional film, and we only take them when clinically needed.
What should I do about a dental emergency? +
Call us right away. For severe pain, swelling, or a broken or knocked-out tooth, we make every effort to see you the same day.
Do you accept new patients and insurance? +
Yes — we welcome new patients of all ages, accept most major dental insurance, and offer Cherry financing and an in-house membership plan.
