What is General Dentistry?

Consulting a dentist or dental hygienist for a cleaning
Fillings for cavities in the teeth

Why Would You Use Professional General Dentistry?
Catch Issues Early - Many dental problems do not have pain in the beginning stages. By the time the pain starts, there is usually a larger issue that costs more to fix. With general dentistry, we can catch the issues before the problem grows larger.
Save Money - To put it simply, prevention is cheaper than repairing a larger, more invasive issue. It is much cheaper to have a simple filling than a root canal or crown.
Keep your Teeth - If you take care of your teeth, you can keep them for your entire life. We help you manage your dental health to avoid losing your teeth for your entire life.
Improved overall health - The health of your mouth is directly attributed to the health of your body. Studies have shown links between gum disease and heart issues, diabetes, and other chronic health issues.
Professional Cleaning - Even if you are the best at brushing and flossing on your end, there are places that you will not be able to get to completely. By visiting us, we are able to reach those places to provide a complete cleaning and remove the buildup that leads to cavities and gum disease.
Benefits of Regular General Dentistry Care
Pain Prevention. Regular general dentistry care can help prevent tooth pain from escalating into a dental emergency - and initially ruin your day/outting/weekend! Nobody wants tooth pain ruining anything.
Fresh Breath. Professional cleanings and good oral health provide (and will keep you having) fresh breath.
Confidence in your Smile. Good oral health means clean and healthy teeth, and eating will make you feel better about smiling and talking to other people.
Save Time. Regular short appointments turn into save you long, complicated appointments by avoiding dental disease.
Peace of Mind. Assuring yourself that your teeth are healthy, you will also have less to worry about, and your brain can focus on other things.
Better Eating. Healthy teeth provide the ability to enjoy all your favourite foods without experiencing pain and difficulty.
What Occurs During Your General Dentistry Appointment?
Welcome and Check-in - our friendly staff will welcome you, and we will ensure that you are comfortable with the physical space. We will do a review of your health history, as well as any concerns you have.
Dental Exam - one of our dentists (Dr. Adam Staniscia or Dr. Derek Yuen) will carefully look through your teeth and gums, as well as your whole mouth. The dentist will use special tools, and it is common for us to take X-rays to examine.
Professional Cleaning - our dental hygienist will professionally clean your teeth by gently removing plaque and tartar that you cannot remove from regular tooth brushing. This is a gentle practice and will feel refreshing - not painful.
Discussion and Plan - we will discuss what we found, and what treatment(s) you may need. We will answer all your questions and help you make a decision.
Scheduling - If treatment is needed, we will help schedule appointments with our clinic when it is convenient with your busy schedule.
Who Needs General Dentistry?
Children - Kids need regular visits to make sure their teeth grow properly and to learn good habits early.
Adults - Busy adults often put off dental care, but regular visits prevent small problems from becoming big emergencies.
Seniors - As we age, our teeth face new challenges, and regular care helps maintain oral health for life.

Managing Good Oral Hygiene
Your trusted dentist wants you to maintain a healthy mouth between appointments. Here are some easy ways to keep your teeth healthy:
Brush Twice a Day - Use fluoride toothpaste. Brush for a full two minutes each time you brush. A timer is very helpful!
Floss Daily - Flossing is what gets food and plaque out from between your teeth that brushing does not get to.
Eat Healthy Foods for Your Teeth - Choose water instead of sugary drinks, and eat plenty of fruits and vegetables.
Do Not Do These Things - Do not use your teeth as a tool for opening items, biting your nails, or chewing on ice, all of which can chip or break teeth.
Come See Us - Most people need a cleaning and check-up every 6 months, and we will let you know if you need something different.
Don't Wait Until You are in Pain - If something is bothering you, please call us immediately. It is always easier and cheaper to treat something before it hurts
