What Is Family Dentistry?

Family dentistry is similar to general dentistry. We understand the changes that occur at all life stages and are ready to help each patient maximize their oral health. We treat patients of all ages. Everyone from toddlers to older adults is welcome in our practice.

Benefits of Family Dentistry

Convenience

Bringing your whole family to one dental office is much more convenient than visiting multiple practices. When you visit one family dentist, you will not have to deal with the stress of multiple appointments in different places.

Understanding Family History

Multiple generations of one family can visit the same dentist, meaning that the dentist has a complete understanding of family dental health issues.

Track Oral Development

Tracking oral development is a vital service for children and teens. A family dentist can assess problems before they become severe and recommend further care, like orthodontic treatment.

Prevent Tooth Decay

Dental cleanings and home care instructions can help to prevent tooth decay. Decayed teeth may require expensive restoration work in the future, but early treatment can prevent this.

Prevent Gum Disease

Gum disease is often a direct result of poor home care and missing dental appointments. A family dentist knows how to encourage their patients to step up their home care routine, including brushing and flossing as recommended.

Eliminate Dental Anxiety

When you see one family dentist, you can demonstrate dental care to your children. Early comfort and familiarity with the dentist's office allow a child to receive treatment with little to no anxiety.

Create a Lasting Relationship

Your family dentist has the opportunity to get to know multiple family members and treat them for several years, creating a warm and friendly relationship and a feeling of security.

Procedures Offered

Comprehensive Oral Exams

Dentists check their patients' oral health at each visit, looking for lesions and other abnormalities. The dentist also checks the status of past restorations and tracks the development of oral health issues.

Dental Cleanings

Teeth cleaning is the cornerstone of dental health. Teeth cleaning removes built-up plaque, tartar, and food particles that can cause decay and gum disease.

Fluoride Treatments

Fluoride safely strengthens teeth. It is available in varnish, gel, and foam preparations. Children and adults may receive fluoride treatments from a family dentist.

Digital X-Rays

Digital X-rays provide excellent diagnostic information with only a fraction of the radiation used by standard film X-rays. They facilitate patient communication and require no time to develop. Parents can see their children's teeth developing before they erupt.

Fillings

Cavities that receive early treatment are less likely to cause problems later. The dentist removes the decayed lesion and then replaces it with a filling that is either composite or metal substance. Fillings are safe and durable.

Frequently Asked Questions About Family Dentistry

How should I care for my teeth at home?
Preferably use toothpaste with fluoride. Depending on your dentist's recommendation, you may want to use a fluoride mouthwash. Brush at least twice daily and floss once daily. Be sure to brush all tooth surfaces, including in the back of the mouth. Ensure that you keep all appointments for cleaning and exams.
What oral health changes can happen as a person ages?
As we age, our teeth change. Gum disease tends to occur more as a person ages and could lead to tooth loss.
What changes can pregnancy bring to oral health?
Many pregnant women experience some degree of gingivitis due to the hormone levels during pregnancy. The gums may become red, swollen, sensitive, and uncomfortable. For this reason, pregnant women must be careful to brush and floss daily as recommended and maintain regular dental visits.
