What is General Dentistry?

General dentistry addresses the comprehensive diagnosis, treatment, and maintenance of patients' oral health. General dental procedures help to improve both the function and esthetics of your teeth, gums, and mouth. General dentistry is ideal for patients of all ages and is customized for each individual patient. We offer a wide range of general dental procedures that benefit your oral health and smile.

Many procedures help to eliminate pain and sensitivity associated with one or more teeth. In addition, it serves to prevent dental problems from developing in the future through regular maintanence. General dentistry can also correct cosmetic issues so that you can feel comfortable and confident with your smile.
