Standard Procedures We Perform in General Dentistry
At our office, we perform various procedures under the umbrella of general dentistry. This includes routine teeth cleanings and exams to more complex functions like root canals and dental crowns. In addition, we individualize our approach to each patient, considering their unique needs and goals.
Here are just a few of the standard procedures we perform in general dentistry:
Teeth Cleanings: We recommend that patients have their teeth cleaned at least twice a year to remove plaque and tartar buildup and to help prevent gum disease. Our skilled hygienists will thoroughly clean your teeth, particularly in areas prone to buildup.
Dental Exams: During a routine exam, we will check for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, or other oral health problems. We will also take X-rays if necessary. These exams are essential in helping us catch problems early so that they can be treated before they become more serious
Fillings: If you have a cavity, we will clean the affected area and fill it with a tooth-colored composite material. This will restore your tooth to its normal function and appearance.
