What is General Dentistry?

General dentistry is the part of dental care directed toward keeping your teeth and gums healthy. It involves routine checkups, cleanings, X-rays, and other treatments to stop decay, infections, and damage. General dentistry helps to catch small issues early — before they become significant and costly problems.
