What a Family Dentist Can Do for You

During your lifetime, you may face a variety of oral health issues. Fortunately, your Norwich, CT, family dentist, Dr. Jonathan Greene of Greene Dental Group, offers all of the services and treatments you need to care for your smile.

How a family dentist can help you

Family dentists are committed to helping you keep your smile healthy and attractive. They receive extensive dental training and are just as skilled in treating cavities as they are in offering cosmetic treatments to approve the appearance and function of teeth. Your family dentist can help you:

  • Keep Your Smile Healthy: Regular checkups offer a simple way to ensure that your teeth and gums are as healthy as they can be. When you visit the dentist every six months, any problems that do occur are more likely to be minor and easier to treat.
  • Avoid Pain During Cavity Treatment: Injecting a local anesthetic into your gums prevents pain during a filling, but many people find the injection uncomfortable. Laser dentistry, offered by the Norwich dental office, eliminates the need for local anesthetic and drilling. The laser light removes the decayed part of the tooth only, leaving the surrounding healthy tooth structure unharmed. Laser dentistry can also be used to perform root canals and treat gum disease, canker sores and sleep apnea.
  • Protect Your Children's Oral Health: Family dentists treat the whole family, including children. They understand that young children may be a little reluctant to visit the dentist and offer friendly, compassionate care that puts kids at ease. During checkups, your child's dentist not only looks for signs of cavities but also evaluates the growth and development of your child's jaw, teeth and face. If any issues are noted, he'll recommend treatments.
  • Receive the Treatments You Need: Family dentists offer a range of dental treatments. They can preserve infected and inflamed teeth with root canals, strengthen weak or damaged teeth with dental crowns; treat gum disease, infections and temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ); and replace missing teeth with dentures, bridges or dental implants.
  • Improve Cosmetic Issues: Do you have a few tooth flaws? Your family dentist can improve the appearance of a chipped or discolored tooth with bonding, veneers or crowns. If your smile has become dull, teeth whitening offers a simple, inexpensive solution. Invisalign, an orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligner trays to straighten teeth, can be the perfect option if you want to improve your smile discreetly.
