What is General Dentistry?

General dentistry refers to a broad range of procedures and treatment options. The aim is to help you maintain a good level of oral health through monitoring and managing your symptoms and oral health needs. In summary, general dentistry is about maintaining the appearance and function of your teeth

General dentistry is a broad umbrella term used for most dental procedures and treatments not requiring specialist care. However, many of the treatments considered general dental can be further categorised as:

  • preventative dental services - as the label suggests, the aim of such services is to prevent dental problems from arising. This may also include the maintenance and prevention of existing problems from escalating into bigger problems.
  • restorative dental services - these procedures and treatments occur when a problem has arisen and needs intervention. Usually, the aim is to save the tooth. Depending on the damage to the tooth from tooth decay or trauma, restorative treatments range from a filling , to root canal treatment or a crown and bridge. Some dentists refer to themselves as restorative dentists.
