General Dentistry – Comprehensive Care for Your Smile
General dentistry covers the most common dental procedures designed to maintain, restore, and improve your oral health. From filling cavities to addressing bad breath, these treatments ensure that your smile stays healthy and strong.
General Services & Treatments
Our general dentistry services include:
Comfortable, Personalized & Affordable Care
Most general dentistry treatments are covered by dental insurance, making them affordable and accessible. Early treatment prevents bigger problems down the road, which is why insurers encourage regular check-ups and cleanings. Taking advantage of your benefits now can save you time, money, and discomfort in the future.
General Dentistry Overlaps with Other Categories
While general dental care focuses on essential treatments, it often overlaps with cosmetic and restorative procedures. For example, fixing a chipped tooth might involve both a filling (general) and bonding (cosmetic). This versatility means your treatment plan can be personalized to address all your dental needs.
General Dentistry: The Foundation of Good Oral Health
Every dentist is trained in general dentistry, even those who specialize in areas like orthodontics or cosmetic dentistry. This foundational knowledge allows them to assess and treat a wide range of oral health issues. In some cases, dental hygienists can perform tasks like assisting with crown fittings, making general care more efficient.
Oral Health & Overall Health
There’s a strong link between your oral health and your overall health. Issues like jaw pain (TMD), sleep apnea, or migraines can sometimes be related to dental problems. That’s why regular check-ups are essential; they can help catch these issues early and provide a pathway to better overall wellness.
Non-Invasive Actions in General Dentistry
General dentistry includes diagnostic exams and scans, as well as non-invasive actions to keep you comfortable. Assessments of your bite (occlusion) and the use of local anesthesia or light sedation are common practices to ensure a stress-free experience.
Preventing Dental Problems: The Key to Long-Term Health
Preventive care is an essential part of general dentistry. Through patient education, regular cleanings, fluoride treatments, and the use of mouthguards, we help you prevent dental problems before they start. Good daily habits combined with regular visits can keep your teeth and gums healthy for life.
