General Dentistry Q & A

What is general dentistry?

General dentistry refers to the branch of dental care concerned with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of oral health problems. At Westminster Family Dentistry, Dr. Farahbod and his team place a great emphasis on general dentistry.

 

What general dentistry services are available?

At Westminster Family Dentistry, Dr. Farahbod and his team offer a variety of general dentistry services, including:

Comprehensive dental exams

Regular exams allow Dr. Farahbod to check for signs of decay, gum disease, or abnormal growths that may require more testing.

Deep cleanings

No matter how well you brush and floss, there’s plaque that you miss deep below the gum line. A deep cleaning with special dental instruments is the only surefire way to remove plaque you can’t get to and keep your teeth clean.

Dental fillings

Fillings to restore teeth affected by cavities are routine, especially for younger patients. When you’re in for a dental exam, Dr. Farahbod checks for cavities and can recommend fillings to close off spaces where bacteria gets in and threatens the structure of your teeth.

 

Is general dentistry linked to my overall health?

The short answer is yes. Paying attention to general dentistry is a critical component of your overall health care plan. Dental problems that occur as a result of neglectful oral hygiene, such as tooth decay and gum disease, are closely linked to serious health conditions like heart disease and stroke.

 

Why else is general dentistry important?

The best way to ensure you enjoy a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums is by adhering to your general dentistry regimen. Maintaining general dentistry visits for exams, deep cleanings, and more helps you stay out in front of problems, such as tooth decay and gum disease. 

Why is that important? Well, if you catch problems early on when they’re easier to treat, you can save yourself a lot of time and money. No one wants to come in for complicated, costly dental procedures. Instead, adhere to a steady schedule of visits twice a year that keep your teeth and gums clean, healthy, and strong with minimal fuss.
