Common Questions About General Dentistry

What is general dentistry?

Maintaining a beautiful smile and optimal oral health is the primary goal of general dentistry. We offer several services to achieve this, including dental cleanings and exams, gum disease treatment, preventive treatments like fluoride application and dental sealants, and custom-made mouthguards for athletes or teeth grinders. Regular dental care is crucial in preserving the health and beauty of your smile.

What foods are healthy for my teeth?

Nutritious foods that benefit your overall health also help you maintain healthy teeth. Adding fresh fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and calcium-rich foods like cheese into your diet is a good start. Certain fruits and vegetables, with their high water and fiber content, function as a natural toothbrush and remove plaque from your teeth. Nuts make an excellent snack option as they contain minerals that strengthen tooth enamel, making it less vulnerable to cavities.

Can I prevent cavities?

Maintaining good oral hygiene practices and seeking regular care from a general dentist significantly reduce the risk of cavities. In addition, make sure you brush at least twice daily using fluoride toothpaste and get a dental checkup every six months. Limit the intake of sugary or acidic foods and drinks. To boost your cavity prevention, ask your dental team about fluoride treatment and dental sealants.
