Preventive Dental Care Keeps Your Mouth in Good Shape

When you visit the dentist regularly for dental checkups, you stay ahead of everything that can happen to your smile. Plus, with a trusted partner in dental care, you have a go-to person for urgent dental needs or to address your goals for your smile. At Hamada Family Dentistry, we have solutions to improve your oral health and smile’s beauty.

Our general dental care treatments include:

Cleanings and Exams – You’ll receive a thorough cleaning to get rid of plaque and tartar that you miss at home. We also examine your mouth for problems such as gum disease, cavities, and oral cancer. Ultrasonic equipment and a laser keep your cleanings comfortable, with less scraping needed.
Gum Disease Treatment – If you show signs of gum disease, we’ll eliminate the disease with a deep cleaning procedure known as scaling and root planing. Laser treatments may also be used if needed.
Fluoride Treatments – We can apply a fluoride varnish to your teeth, which gives them an extra layer of defense against bacteria and restores your tooth enamel.

If you have restorative dental needs, such as cavities or damaged teeth, your dentist will walk you through what’s needed to repair your smile. We have many same-day solutions, including a CEREC machine to create your dental crowns in-house. Get your restoration on the same day, with no need to return for a second visit.

Common Questions About General Dentistry

What is general dentistry?

General dentistry covers basic dental services that are designed to keep your mouth healthy, your teeth clean, and your smile bright. It includes dental cleanings and exams, gum disease treatment, and preventive care like fluoride treatments.

Can I prevent cavities?

Brushing with a toothpaste that contains fluoride at least two times a day is essential in preventing cavities, as is daily flossing. Limiting the amount of sugary or highly acidic foods in your diet is also helpful. If you’re unable to brush after meals, rinsing out your mouth with water is a good way to help wash away the food debris and bacteria that cause cavities. Ask your dental team about fluoride and sealants, two treatments that can make your teeth less cavity-prone.

Should I get fluoride treatment?

Sugar and bacteria in your mouth form acids that eat into your tooth enamel, causing cavities. Fluoride and other minerals strengthen your enamel and help fortify it against these kinds of attacks. If you are prone to cavities, fluoride treatments can help you avoid them. Of course, it’s also important to brush and floss every day and to cut down on sugary foods and drinks.
