General dentistry is the most common dental care provided. The American Dental Association recommends you visit your general dentist for a regular visit at least once every 6-months to maintain a healthy smile. Regular checkups and oral health maintenance prevent the development of serious dental problems that can require costly treatment – so make sure to visit your dentist regularly so you can enjoy a healthy smile!
Preventative dentistry may actually head off heart attack, stroke, and diabetes— even catching oral cancer and osteoporosis early, before problems arise.
Apart from the individual services we offer in general and preventative dentistry, every checkup includes a complete periodontal evaluation.
Whether it’s been a while since your last checkup or you are worried about a tooth, our patients in the Richmond, Virginia, area come to us because we put their comfort first. To ensure your mouth is healthy, checkups include face time with your dentist, digital X-rays when needed, a complete periodontal assessment, oral cancer screening, and a bite and jaw movement evaluation. During the checkup, if we find decay, broken fillings, or fractures, your dentist will recommend a treatment plan, and you can discuss possible next steps together.
