The short answer
General dentistry is the routine and preventive care that keeps your teeth and gums healthy, catching problems such as cavities and gum disease early, before they become painful or expensive. It includes comprehensive exams with digital X-rays, professional cleanings that remove plaque, tartar and surface stains, tooth-colored composite fillings, oral cancer screenings, and custom mouthguards and nightguards. For most people an exam and cleaning every six months lets the dentist spot changes early and treat them simply, for children, teens, adults and seniors alike.
General Dentistry: Frequently Asked Questions
- How often should I have a dental exam and cleaning?
- For most people, a dental exam and cleaning every six months works well. If you have gum disease, a history of frequent cavities or other risk factors, your dentist may suggest coming in more often. A standard cleaning and exam usually takes about an hour.
- Are digital X-rays safe?
- Yes, digital X-rays are very safe. Compared with traditional film, digital X-rays greatly reduce radiation exposure. They also put a sharp image on the screen right away, which helps your dentist spot problems early.
- Do you treat both children and adults?
- Yes, general dentistry here covers children, teens, adults and seniors. The approach is adjusted to fit each patient’s age, needs and comfort level. Younger patients get gentle, welcoming care that helps them build everyday habits for a healthy smile.
- What if I haven’t been to the dentist in years?
- If you have not been to the dentist in years, you can expect support rather than judgment. Your first visit starts with a gentle, thorough evaluation and a conversation about your goals. From there, your dentist lays out a step-by-step plan to ease you back into good oral health.
- What are signs that I might need a filling?
- Signs that you might need a filling include sensitivity, pain when chewing, visible spots or holes, and rough patches you can feel with your tongue. Some early decay is hard to see, and caries-detection dye can help reveal what the eye can miss. An exam and X-rays can confirm whether a filling is the right fix.
- Can I get a same-day appointment if I have a problem?
- Same-day visits for urgent problems are offered whenever they can be fit in. Contact the office and the team will work to arrange a same-day or next-available visit. If you have intense pain, swelling or a broken tooth, get in touch as soon as the problem starts.
- Do you offer fluoride treatments?
- Yes, fluoride treatments are available. Fluoride hardens enamel and makes it tougher for acids to break down. That makes it a real help for children, anyone prone to cavities and patients at higher risk of decay.
- Will my cleaning hurt?
- Most dental cleanings do not hurt and are very comfortable. If your teeth or gums are sensitive, let the team know so they can adjust their technique, use numbing gel when it helps and take breaks as needed. Ultrasonic scalers, which use gentle vibrations and water to clear tartar, also help keep cleanings comfortable.
- Are your fillings metal-free?
- Yes, the fillings here are tooth-colored composite rather than metal. Composite grips the tooth firmly and blends in with your natural enamel. The result is a sturdy, low-profile repair that is hard to notice when you smile.
- What areas do you serve besides Mequon?
- Along with patients in Mequon, the office welcomes families from Milwaukee, Thiensville, Cedarburg, Grafton and other nearby communities. New patients of every age are welcome. Once your visit is booked, the team will send directions and parking details.
