General Dentistry

What Does a General Dentist Do?

As general dentists, we oversee and manage all your oral health needs and are responsible for diagnosing and treating dental issues. Our wide range of services can help you maintain and improve your dental health, avoid cavities and gum disease, and enhance your smile’s appearance. 

The dedicated team at our Raleigh, NC, dental office offers a full spectrum of general dentistry services, including:

• Comprehensive dental exams
• Teeth cleanings
• Oral cancer screenings
• Digital x-rays
• Tooth-colored fillings
• Dental crowns and bridges
• Dental implants
• Root canal therapy
• Tooth extractions, including wisdom teeth
• Periodontal disease treatment
• Emergency dental care

In addition to routine care, our experienced dentists offer beautiful cosmetic dentistry, such as veneers, Invisalign, and teeth whitening, to enhance your smile's aesthetics. 

You have unique dental needs, and your treatment plan should reflect that. Our team will actively listen to you to understand your concerns and oral health goals and carefully evaluate your dental situation. Using this information, our dentists create a personalized treatment plan to ensure long-lasting results and a lifelong healthy smile.

We Offer Safe, Effective Sedation Dentistry

Does anxiety cause you to skip or postpone important dental treatment? We understand, and we offer various sedation dentistry options at our Raleigh, NC, dental office to ensure a more comfortable, relaxed experience. Our dentists provide oral conscious sedation and IV sedation, and we also offer general anesthesia administered by a visiting anesthesiologist for more involved procedures.

Our team is highly trained and certified to deliver dental sedation, with your safety as our top priority. We tailor the level of sedation to your needs to help you relax and feel at ease about maintaining your healthy smile.

Dental Exams

During a comprehensive dental exam, we thoroughly evaluate your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. We check for signs of cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues, perform oral cancer screenings, and take digital x-rays when necessary to diagnose conditions.

Teeth Cleanings

Regular teeth cleanings are essential for maintaining good oral hygiene. Our skilled dental hygienists check for signs of gum disease, remove plaque and tartar buildup, and polish your teeth to remove surface stains.

Tooth-Colored Fillings and Bonding

Composite fillings and dental bonding repair and restore cavities, chipped or cracked teeth, and wide gaps. Using composite resin matched to your tooth color, we create invisible repairs that blend seamlessly with your smile and provide a durable restoration. 

Crowns and Bridges

Dental crowns and bridges restore and replace damaged or missing teeth. Crowns are custom-made, tooth-shaped caps that cover a damaged tooth, while bridges fill the gap created by one or more missing teeth.

Root Canal Treatment

Root canal therapy treats an infected tooth by removing the damaged nerve and pulp tissue from within its roots. This treatment can save a severely damaged tooth, prevent the spread of infection, and alleviate pain.

Tooth Extraction

Our dentists may recommend removing a tooth when it is severely damaged, decayed, or impacted. Rest assured that we perform extractions with the utmost care and precision, prioritizing your comfort and ensuring a smooth recovery.
