What is general dentistry?

General dentistry encompasses several general dental services that are aimed at helping you achieve and maintain optimal oral health. Whether you need a teeth cleaning and exam or are ready to get dental sealants to prevent cavities, our experienced general dentist is here for you to ask questions and learn how to take care of your smile.

Why do I need dental exams?

Regular dental exams are essential for maintaining optimal oral health. Our general dentist often recommends a check-up every six months, but this recommendation may change depending on the state of your oral health. With regular dental exams, our general dentist can detect any potential issues early, such as cavities, gum disease, or oral cancer. Our dental exams also may include professional cleanings to remove plaque and tartar buildup, promoting healthy teeth and gums!

How often should I floss?

Maintaining a complete oral hygiene routine at home is essential for your oral health. Flossing plays an important part in that oral hygiene routine. You should floss at least once a day, every day. Floss helps remove plaque and food particles from between your teeth and along the gumline, where your toothbrush may not reach. Consistent flossing reduces the risk of cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. If you would like to learn if you are flossing correctly, give our office a call.
