General Dentistry
Regular dental examinations are important for several reasons:
Preventive Care: General dentistry focuses on preventive care, which is crucial for maintaining oral health. Regular dental check-ups and cleanings help detect early signs of dental problems such as tooth decay, gum disease, and oral cancer. By identifying issues early on, we can prevent them from progressing into more serious and costly conditions.
We provide comprehensive oral health care, including dental examinations, cleanings, and treatments. This will help maintain healthy teeth and gums, which is vital for proper chewing, speaking, and overall well-being.
Diagnosis and Treatment:
A detailed dental examination is vital in diagnosing various dental conditions. Common issues like cavities, gum disease, tooth sensitivity, and bad breath can therefore be treated.
Oral Cancer Detection:
Dentists are trained to detect the early signs of oral cancer during routine check-ups. Regular screenings increase the chances of early diagnosis, leading to more successful treatment outcomes. Early detection is critical in combating oral cancer and improving survival rates.
Education and Guidance:
We can help inform you about appropriate oral hygiene practices, such as proper brushing and flossing techniques, dietary choices, and lifestyle habits that promote oral health. We offer personalised guidance on maintaining healthy teeth and gums, which helps prevent dental issues in the long run.
Referrals and Coordination:
We can refer patients to specialists when necessary thus coordinating care with other dental professionals, such as orthodontists, periodontists, and oral surgeons, ensuring comprehensive treatment for patients with complex dental needs.
