Commonly Asked Questions About General Dentistry
What is general dentistry?
General dentistry is what we do here. We feature general dentistry solutions that will help keep your mouth healthy and your smile looking its best all through your life. This includes thorough examinations to screen for problems and to assess your teeth, gums, and mouth in general. General dentistry also includes protective measures like dental sealants and teeth cleanings to prevent dangerous plaque, tartar, and bacteria from causing disease, decay, and worse.
What foods are healthy for my teeth?
If you want a healthy smile, you'll want a diet rich in whole grains, fiber, fruits and vegetables, calcium, and lean proteins. Make sure you avoid sugary drinks or sticky sweets, which can damage your tooth enamel. Drink plenty of water too! This washes away bacteria from your teeth and gums.
Should I use mouthwash?
Using mouthwash can be a beneficial addition to your oral hygiene routine. It can help freshen your breath, reach areas that brushing and flossing may miss, and reduce the bacteria that cause plaque and gum disease. However, it's important to choose a mouthwash that suits your specific needs and follow the instructions carefully. Remember, mouthwash is not a substitute for regular brushing and flossing, but it can be a helpful complement to maintain good oral health.
