What is Family Dentistry?

It is easy to confuse the meaning of a family dentist with a general dentist. Apart from several exceptions, the two are almost the same. A family dental group, as we are, accepts any patient regardless of age, from children to the elderly. Some refer to this as General Dentistry. This makes us more convenient for those who want to employ the same dental team for all members of the family. If you have small children, we as a family dental office will take care of both their baby teeth and permanent teeth and supervise its health and growth.

With children, we feel is advisable to visit our office first before making an appointment. This will allow you to get a feel of the surroundings and get a first impression of us and our office. It is very important that your family, especially the children, get comfortable with us. Most children are scared of having their teeth checked and treated, and only in a caring atmosphere can we coax them into stepping into the dental chair.

What can you expect from us as your family dentist?

Basic dental work such as cleanings, fillings, extractions and teeth whitening are the usual procedures done by our family team of dentists on a regular day. We remove tartar or plaque that clings to your teeth to keep them from decaying and getting serious damages such as cavities. Cavities are one of the major dental problems around, so a regularly check-up of your pearly whites for cavities with some x-rays, if necessary, is very important.

If your dental problem needs specialty treatment, we have dental specialists, such as  a Periodontist, and Endodontist right in our office.

Our specialists take care of problems like root canals, dental implants and periodontal treatments.

Aside from preventive care, we are able to provide emergency treatments as well. Incidents such as getting a tooth chipped or knocked out should be taken care of immediately.

It is best to visit us regularly to avoid long-term dental problems. The benefit of having a team of dentists is that we can constantly monitor the condition of your families dental health and keep an updated record of your dental history.

We all love what we do and have every technology available to provide your family with the safest, most effective, most conservative and longest lasting dental care at the lowest possible cost. We pride ourselves in that.

In addition, we are all very concerned about your comfort and we have the most comfortable dental chairs made and offer soft pillows, relaxing music (with sound canceling head sets) available with warm towels to wash up afterwards. For larger amounts of work or for those who are fearful, we offer sedation and sleep dentistry to ensure your will have a favorable experience.

Come by and visit our office and we will be happy to show you around. We love what we do and enjoy guests.
