General Dentistry Q&A

What role does prevention play within general dentistry?

Preventive dentistry is an essential area of focus of general dentistry practice. When you can prevent dental decay, gum disease, and other forms of oral disease before they develop, you save a great deal of discomfort and expense. 

It’s important to understand that your oral health is directly linked to your overall health. A growing body of evidence shows that when advanced decay or gum disease allows bacteria from the mouth to enter the bloodstream, the consequences can be widespread. 

At Bravo Dental Group, Dr. Hawatmeh performs comprehensive dental exams and professional teeth cleanings. State-of-the-art imaging technology helps him understand what is going on in the interior of your teeth and bone tissue. 

What happens if I need restorative dental care?

If you develop areas of dental decay, fillings can eliminate the damaged tissue and preserve the structural integrity of the affected tooth. If the decay has advanced into the interior chamber of the tooth, a root canal might be the best way to save the tooth. 

Chipped, cracked, or fractured teeth are often treated with dental crowns. This popular dental restoration completely covers the visible surfaces of the tooth while preserving the roots.

If you develop gum disease, there are many treatments that can help. A deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, removes all traces of plaque beneath the gumline and gives your gums a chance to heal. 

How often do I need to come in for general dentistry visits?

Most people benefit from coming in for a dental exam and cleaning every six months. This timing ensures Dr. Hawatmeh has the chance to catch problems in the earliest possible stages when treatment is usually more conservative. 

If you have existing dental decay or gum disease, you might need to come in more frequently until your treatment is complete. You can then return to routine scheduling.
