Scope of General Dentistry


General dentists are highly trained professionals who provide comprehensive care for the teeth, gums, and mouth. They emphasize the importance of preventive measures to avoid dental problems before they occur. This includes regular check-ups, cleanings, and patient education on proper oral hygiene practices.

Using tools such as X-rays, dental exams, and other diagnostic equipment, general dentists can detect early signs of dental issues like cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer. When dental problems arise, general dentists provide restorative treatments to repair damage and restore function. This includes fillings, crowns, bridges, and dentures.

General dentists handle dental emergencies, such as toothaches, broken teeth, and knocked-out teeth, providing immediate care to alleviate pain and prevent further damage. General dentists also offer cosmetic procedures to improve the appearance of the smile, such as teeth whitening, veneers, and bonding.

Services Provided by General Dentists


Routine exams and professional cleanings are the cornerstone of preventive care. During an exam, the dentist assesses the overall health of the teeth and gums, checks for signs of disease, and takes X-rays if necessary. Cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.

When cavities are detected, dentists remove the decayed portion of the tooth and fill it with a durable material, such as composite resin, to restore its function and appearance.

Crowns are used to cover and protect damaged teeth, while bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring artificial teeth to adjacent natural teeth or implants.

For teeth with infected or damaged pulp, root canal therapy removes the affected tissue, cleans the canals, and seals them to prevent further infection, saving the natural tooth.

When a tooth is severely damaged or decayed beyond repair, or in cases of overcrowding, extractions are often necessary. General dentists perform both simple and surgical extractions.

Professional teeth whitening treatments offered by general dentists can effectively remove stains and discoloration, providing a brighter, more attractive smile.

For patients with multiple missing teeth, dentures and partials offer a removable solution to restore function and aesthetics.
