Whether you have beautiful teeth and a great dental hygiene routine or you suffer from common dental problems like tooth-grinding and bleeding gums, seeing your general or family dentist is essential for restoring and maintaining your dental health throughout life.

Your General Dentist Is a Key Healthcare Provider

A general dentist fills the role of primary dental care provider for individual patients of all ages and often their family members. Unlike dentists who specialize in certain types of dental care, general dentists provide a full range of services that cover all common dental care needs.

What Do General Family Dentistry Providers Do?

Your general dentist focuses on the long-term health of your teeth and gums. To keep your mouth healthy, he or she will perform regular checkups and provide x-rays, fillings, crowns and professional cleanings as needed. Your dentist will also administer emergency care and give you advice about keeping your teeth and gums clean and free from plaque. When you have unexpected pain or other dental symptoms, your dentist is there to treat the underlying cause and ensure that the problem doesn’t affect your future dental health.

Our Comprehensive General Dentistry Services in Middletown

Our general dentists offer a wide range of general dentistry services to meet the needs of every patient. You’ll find all of the dental services that you and your family need in the list below.

How Often Should I Visit My General Dental Office?

In most cases, dentists recommend twice-yearly visits for healthy patients. Some people may need to see their dentists more often; these include smokers, pregnant women and people with chronic dental disease, diabetes or immune system problems.

Will It Cost a Lot of Money to See the Dentist?

A dental visit may involve various tests and treatments that affect the overall cost. Your dental coverage is also a factor. If you’re concerned about the cost of an upcoming visit, please contact our office to obtain an estimate or discuss payment options.

The Duration of Your Dentist General Practice Visit

The duration of your appointment depends on what types of tests and treatments your dentist needs to perform to optimize your dental health. A brief checkup may take as little as 30 minutes. Visits that involve professional cleanings, fillings, root canals and other procedures can take several hours. Your dentist will let you know approximately how long your treatment should take.

Preparing for Your Visit

The following tips will help you prepare for your dental appointment.

  • Arrive on time or slightly early
  • Bring your insurance information or card
  • Provide a list of your current medications and any chronic medical conditions that you have
  • Transfer your dental records to your new dentist before your appointment date
  • If you have questions for your dentist, write them down so you don’t forget them
  • If you suffer from severe dental anxiety, discuss this with your dentist

What Happens to Your Teeth When You Don’t See the Dentist?

If you don’t see your dentist for routine checkups, you may miss important signs that indicate the start of tooth decay or gum disease. In their early stages, these problems are treated easily. When treatment is delayed because of neglect, invasive and costly procedures may be needed to save your teeth and restore your dental health. Prevent a future filled with painful dental symptoms and expensive treatments; call our office at (845) 512-1246 to set up your appointment today.
