General dentistry includes a wide range of preventive and routine dental services designed to keep your smile healthy. These services include dental exams and cleanings, gum disease treatment such as scaling and root planing or laser therapy, and custom mouthguards to protect your teeth from grinding. Regular general dentistry visits play an essential role in maintaining long-term oral health.
Cavities can often be prevented with consistent oral hygiene and professional care. Plaque naturally forms on your teeth each day and can harden into tartar if not removed. Brushing twice daily and flossing once a day helps break down plaque before it causes decay. Routine cleanings allow us to remove hardened tartar, and fluoride treatments can strengthen enamel and further protect against cavities.
Dental X-rays are sometimes recommended to provide a complete picture of your oral health. Modern digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than traditional methods and are considered very safe. They allow us to detect issues such as cavities, bone loss, or infections early, often before symptoms appear, which helps us provide more precise and proactive care.
Most patients benefit from dental visits every six months for exams and cleanings. However, if you have gum disease, a history of cavities, or other oral health concerns, we may recommend more frequent visits. Regular appointments allow us to catch small issues early and keep your smile in top shape.
A routine dental exam includes a thorough evaluation of your teeth, gums, and bite, along with a professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar buildup. We check for signs of decay, gum disease, and other oral health concerns. If needed, digital X-rays may be taken to ensure nothing is missed below the surface.
