What is General Dentistry?
General dentistry is a branch of dentistry that encompasses a wide range of dental services and treatments aimed at maintaining and improving oral health. Dentists specializing in general dentistry are often referred to as general dentists or family dentists. Their primary focus is on preventive care and the diagnosis and treatment of common dental issues.
Benefits of General Dental Care
One of the greatest benefits of general dentistry is its continuity of care. We love that patients see us on a regular basis so we can monitor their general state of oral health while forming a rapport that allows us to discuss possible treatment modalities that might best serve the patient, should the need arise.
When Should Someone See a General Dentist?
Everyone should see a general dentist after they’ve celebrated their first birthday. The frequency of a person’s visits is determined after a patient has completed their comprehensive exam. Some people have needs that encourage more frequent visits, while others can space their visits out.
General Dental Options at Sheyenne Dental
General dental services encompass a wide range of preventive and restorative treatments provided by general dentists to maintain and improve oral health, including check-ups, cleanings, fillings, and more. Our office offers the following general services:
- Extractions: Extractions refer to the dental procedure of removing a tooth from its socket in the jawbone. This may be necessary for severely damaged, infected, or impacted teeth.
- Dentures (Partial and Full): Dentures are removable dental appliances that replace missing teeth. Partial dentures are used when some natural teeth remain, while full dentures are employed when all natural teeth are missing. They restore both function and aesthetics to the smile.
- Root Canal Therapy: During this treatment, the dentist removes the infected pulp (the inner part of the tooth) and then cleans, disinfects, and seals the tooth, preventing further infection and preserving the tooth’s function.
