General Dentist

Providing general dentistry services to adults.

General dentists are the primary dental care providers for individuals of all ages. They perform a wide range of services, including routine exams, cleanings, fillings, and preventive care. They are trained to diagnose and treat common dental problems such as cavities, gum disease, and oral infections. General dentists also educate patients on oral hygiene, nutrition, and preventive measures to maintain healthy teeth and gums. While they handle most dental needs, they may refer patients to specialists for more complex procedures.

If you experience pain, bleeding gums, or difficulty chewing, it’s time to visit a general dentist. Other signs include persistent bad breath, tooth sensitivity, or loose teeth. If your teeth are misaligned or you need fillings, a general dentist can help with treatments to address these issues. Additionally, if you haven’t had a dental exam in over six months, it's essential to schedule a visit for a routine check-up and cleaning. General dentists are also the first point of contact for oral health concerns or emergencies.

The Importance of Regular Dental Check-ups

Regular dental check-ups are vital for maintaining optimal oral health. Here’s why they matter:

Cavity Detection: Prevents cavities from progressing into larger dental issues.
Gum Disease Prevention: Helps catch early signs of gum disease before it becomes severe.
Overall Health: Oral health is closely linked to overall health, and dental check-ups help spot other health issues.
Prevention: Professional cleaning and advice help maintain healthy teeth and gums and avoid future problems.
Early Intervention: Regular visits ensure early treatment of issues like cavities, misalignment, or oral infections.
