General Dentistry is treatment carried out to prevent or treat the two most common oral diseases which are Dental Caries (tooth decay) and Periodontal Disease (gum disease). We encourage prevention of oral disease through proper hygiene and regular, twice yearly check ups for professional cleaning and diagnosis.
Common treatments are:
- Examinations
- Dental X-rays
- Diagnosis
- Scale and polish
- Fillings and Extractions
- Root canal treatment
- Crowns
- Bridges
- Dentures
Many studies have shown that gum disease is associated with an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease and preterm birth.
