Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between general dentistry and cosmetic dentistry?

Both traditional and cosmetic dentistry are essential for achieving a healthy smile. Although cosmetic dentistry tends to focus on the aesthetic improvement of your smile, general dentistry is more holistic and arguably more important. General Dentistry looks at the health of the gums, the mouth, the teeth themselves, and has a variety of services intended to fix and prevent issues from arising.

What are some types of general dentistry?

Regular checkups let us detect and prevent issues before they become significant. We evaluate gum health and then if necessary fillings can be done. Root canals follow fillings that fail and implants are a solution when even a root canal can’t save a tooth. Finally, dentures and other prosthetics help restore function.

How often should I come in for a checkup?

We recommend that patients come in every six months for a checkup. Doing so can help you maintain your healthy smile.
