What is General Dentistry?
At its core, general dentistry in Midlothian and Cedar Hill is all about the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of common dental issues. It’s the foundation of any dental care routine. Regular visits to a general dentist play a critical role in maintaining your oral health and ensuring that minor concerns don’t become major problems down the road.
General dentistry involves a variety of treatments that keep your smile in tip-top shape, from routine exams and professional cleaning to essential procedures like fillings or gum care. At Clark Dental Group, we’re here to guide and support you every step of the way.
Comprehensive Dental Exams
One of the key aspects of general dentistry is the dental exam, and we take these seriously at Clark Dental Group. Each visit starts with a thorough evaluation of your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. Our team uses the latest technology to catch early signs of cavities, gum disease, or other issues, reducing the likelihood of more extensive treatments later on.
A dental exam is also a perfect opportunity to discuss any concerns or changes in your oral health. Whether it’s sensitive teeth, bleeding gums, or even questions about your daily dental routine, we’re here to listen and help.
Routine Cleanings for a Healthier Smile
No matter how well you brush and floss at home, plaque and tartar will inevitably build up over time. That’s why professional cleanings are an essential service provided by any general dentist—and we’re proud to deliver some of the most gentle yet effective cleanings around.
Our hygienists will carefully remove plaque and tartar, leaving your teeth feeling fresh and smooth. We’ll also polish your teeth to give them a clean, shiny appearance and reduce stains. Plus, we like to think of these cleanings as a refreshing reset for your smile.
Restoring Your Smile with Fillings
Even with the best dental hygiene habits, cavities can sometimes happen. If they do, don’t worry—Clark Dental Group has you covered. We customize our tooth-colored composite fillings to repair damage while blending in beautifully with your natural teeth. These fillings are durable, safe, and practically invisible!
Beyond cavities, general dentistry also includes addressing minor cracks and chips so you can feel confident in your smile again. No matter your need, our dental professionals will walk you through the process and ensure you’re comfortable every step of the way.
Gum Health is Essential
Keeping your gums healthy is just as important as caring for your teeth. That’s why general dentistry at Clark Dental Group includes periodontal care. Symptoms like redness, swelling, or bleeding in your gums may indicate early signs of gum disease. The good news? We can provide treatment to manage and reverse many gum-related issues before they progress.
Whether it’s a deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) or offering tips to improve your gum care routine, we’re dedicated to helping you maintain a strong foundation for your smile.
