What Is General Dentistry?

General dentistry covers the day-to-day and preventive care that keeps your teeth, gums, and mouth healthy over time. It’s the most common type of dental care — and the one you’ll rely on most throughout your life.

At Orchard Meadows, general dentistry means more than just cavity checks. It includes everything from regular exams and cleanings to early detection of gum disease, restorative treatments like fillings, and even emergency dental care. By catching issues early and offering conservative treatments, we help our patients avoid more complex procedures down the road.

We also offer tailored care for children, individuals with special needs, and patients experiencing dental emergencies — all in a calm, community-centered setting.
