What are Some General Dentistry Services?
General dentistry is the largest field, as it encompasses various services. The central concept of general dentistry is preventing and diagnosing dental problems and their treatment. Some services include:
- Dental cleanings
- Exams
- Fillings
- Restorations
- Tooth extractions
- Root canal therapy
- Gum disease treatment
- Oral cancer screenings
General dentistry services include restorative treatments, such as crowns, bridges, and dentures. A general dentist is highly skilled in all aspects of dental care and can liaise with their network if there are more extensive issues.
Benefits of General Dentistry
The benefits of general dentistry are both intrinsic and extrinsic. Regular dental check-ups are essential for checking in on the state of your oral care and your daily habits. Further, cleanings and routine treatments also provide great opportunities to diagnose any possible issue before it becomes more complicated and expensive. For example, cleaning can identify problems like cavities and loose teeth.
Diagnosis can also prevent life-threatening issues, such as cancer, from developing. Did you know that untreated gum disease can lead to other problems like stroke, diabetes, and even heart disease? Our holistic approach to dental care goes much beyond fixing teeth and gums. More on that below.
