If you want to maintain optimal dental health and achieve the smile that you’ve always dreamed of, it’s important that you visit a general dentist on a regular basis. A general or family dentist will be able to help you establish healthy habits and routine care that will help you to maintain the health of your mouth, teeth and gums. If you’ve been asking, “Where can I go to a general dentist near me?” then you’ve just found the answer to your question. Our practice can provide you and your family with the high-quality dental care that you deserve.

What Do General Dentists Do?

General dentists are medical professionals who serve as primary care providers for your dental health care needs. They work with patients of all ages and deal with a variety of common dental health issues rather than specializing in just one area of dentistry. General family dentistry deals with maintaining your dental health through the prevention and treatment of diseases that occur in the teeth and gums.

In order to keep your smile looking and feeling its best, a general dentist will perform a thorough examination, fill cavities, clean and polish your teeth, give you advice on brushing and flossing, as well as perform any kinds of treatments or procedures that are necessary to repair any damaged or diseased teeth and gums. At a general dental office, your problem will be diagnosed and treated. Your dentist will also help you develop a plan so that you can avoid the problem from happening again.

What Types of General Dentistry Services Are There?

A dentist general practice offers an array of services for patients of all ages. These services include comprehensive examinations, procedures and treatments that will help you to achieve and maintain your oral health. We offer the following general dentistry services at our practice:

Tooth Repair & Replacement

Chipped, cracked, broken or missing teeth can easily be repaired or replaced by one of our experienced dentists.

Crowns

A crown (or “cap”) is a type of cover that goes over a decayed or damaged tooth that can’t be repaired by other means.

Porcelain Crowns

A porcelain crown is a type of crown that is made out of a durable porcelain material that enables it to withstand the pressure that occurs in the back of the mouth.

Dental Bonding

If you choose to have your teeth bonded, the dentist will apply a tooth-colored material to a tooth to make cosmetic improvements or to repair a broken tooth.

Dental Bridges

A dental bridge is a custom-fitted device that bridges the gaps created by missing teeth.

Fillings

Patients who have cavities can have their teeth filled at our office.

Composite Fillings

Composite fillings are designed to blend in with your teeth and are made out of a mixture of glass and plastic materials.

Porcelain Fillings

A porcelain filling is a type durable filling option that will blend in with the rest of the teeth.

Laser Dentistry

Laser dentistry uses laser technology to repair cavities, sensitive teeth, gum tissue and other dental problems.

Laughing Gas

Laughing gas is a form of anesthetic that will ensure that you remain comfortable throughout your dental procedure.

Sealants

Sealants are typically applied to the back teeth to protect them from food and bacteria.

How Often Do I Need to Visit the Dentist?

Your age, the condition of your teeth and many other factors will determine how frequently you need to see the dentist. Most people find that they need to come in every six months for a checkup.

How Much Does a Dentist Visit Cost?

The cost of a visit to the dentist will depend on a number of things. The type of treatment needed and your dental insurance are two of the biggest factors that will determine the amount that your bill will come to. Talk to our staff to find out how much your initial visit with our general dentist will cost.

Why Should I Have My Teeth Cleaned By a Dentist?

It’s important that you have your teeth cleaned by a dentist or a dental hygienist because a professional cleaning can clean your teeth and gums more thoroughly than brushing and flossing at home can do. The procedure consists of the plaque and tartar being scraped off your teeth. A powerful brush will then be used to clean the teeth, after which your teeth will be polished. Your dentist may also apply a fluoride treatment to your teeth.

Will My Dentist Appointment Take a Long Time?

A regular checkup usually takes about an hour to complete. While follow-up visits tend to take only about 30 minutes, complicated dental procedures can sometimes take several hours. To determine how much time you should set aside for your visit, talk to our staff.

What Will I Need to Do to Prepare for My Appointment?

You should come to your appointment on time. You should also bring a list of medical conditions and medications. In addition, you should advise us of any dental insurance coverage information that you have. If you are feeling scared about your appointment, please talk to our friendly team members. They are here to help you feel as comfortable as possible.
