To discover and treat issues as early as possible, general dentists have established a hygiene plan that includes teeth cleaning, dental examination, root planing and scaling, x-rays, and other equipment.

the general services offered in general dentistry


There are numerous procedures in general dentistry, including the diagnosis and treatment of oral health problems. Preventive services are among the general services provided by dentistry. These services aid in the maintenance of optimum oral health by preventing the disease from entering the mouth. Frequent dental exams and professional cleanings aid in the prevention of oral diseases. A dentist can provide home dental hygiene recommendations as well as treatments such as sealants if necessary.

Another service a general dentist can offer is vital services. If the problem is detected, the dentist should ensure that the treatment is given on time and appropriately. The most effective treatment involves removing a decayed tooth and filling the affected tooth. However, general dentist offers various therapeutic services. They can fix a broken tooth; they can treat gum diseases. The cosmetic procedure is a service available dentistry offers. The general dentist helps one boost their self-esteem and confidence by correcting the traumas which affect the teeth.

General dentistry focuses on overall health issues. Oral health reflects public health. Certain dental abnormalities cause other health concerns in the body. If oral issues are not treated, poisons can enter the bloodstream and cause serious difficulties.
