What Is General Dentistry?

General dentistry falls under the branch of dentistry covering oral treatments to protect and correct oral health.

Don’t wait until you experience pain; strengthen your smile while you still have time.

When Should You See A General Dentist?

You are entirely in the dark if you think you should visit a general dentist only when you experience any discomfort or tainted teeth. As the saying goes, precaution is better than care, and so is the same with your oral health. Visiting your general dentist twice a year or every six months is advisable for children, adults, and the elderly.


If you’re at a lower risk of dental problems and have well-maintained oral hygiene, your general dentist might reduce your frequency of appointments. Likewise, if you’re on the higher risk aspect for oral issues and for special cases, which include dry mouth, braces treatment, or have a history of gum disease or cavities, your general dentist might refer appointments more frequently.

What to Expect During a General Dentistry Consult?

initial-screening

Initial Screening

The dental appointment starts with a consultation session where we take your dental and medical history and inquire about your oral care routine, allergies, and last checkup date. After that, we thoroughly examine your oral health to determine if you’ve developed, or are at risk of any dental issues.

dental-cleaning

Dental Cleaning

Deep cleaning is done while examining your oral health as it gives the general dentist a clear view to evaluate if you have any cavities or gum infections. Your teeth will be cleaned properly, and based on the requirement, may also be polished. Typically, the checkup ends here if the dentist doesn’t detect any problems.

x-ray-examination

X-ray Examination

Running an X-ray of your oral cavity is also a part of the general dentistry treatment. Depending on your situation, the dentist may suggest an X-ray for a detailed and up-close examination of your oral region. Based on the X-ray, the dentist will be able to provide you with an effective treatment plan tailored for you.
