Family Dentistry
Family dentists are primary care dental providers who offer a wide range of dental services to meet
the oral health needs of individuals and families.
Key aspects of family dentistry:
Preventive Care
Family dentists emphasize preventive measures to maintain good oral health. This includes regular check-ups, cleanings, and oral hygiene education to prevent dental issues like cavities and gum disease.
Diagnosis and Treatmen
Family dentists are trained to diagnose and treat a variety of dental conditions and diseases. They can address issues such as tooth decay, gum problems, and oral infections.
Restorative Dentistry
At Desired Smiles, our dentists can perform restorative procedures like fillings, crowns, bridges and dentures to repair damaged or missing teeth.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Many family dentists offer cosmetic dental services, such as teeth whitening, veneers, and orthodontic treatments(braces or clear aligners) to enhance the appearance of a patient's smile.
Pediatric Dentistry
Family dentists often provide care for children, offering child-friendly services to make young patients feel comfortable and develop good oral health habits from an early age.
Emergency Care
Family dentists are equipped to handle dental emergencies, such as toothaches, dental trauma, or abscesses, and provide timely treatment.
The primary goal of family dentistry is to ensure the oral health and well-being of individuals and their families throughout their lives. By offering a broad range of dental services and emphasizing preventive care, family dentists aim to help patients maintain healthy smiles and prevent dental issues before they become more serious problems.
