Understanding General Dentistry

General dentistry forms the core of oral healthcare, encompassing a broad range of services aimed at preventing, diagnosing, and treating various dental conditions. As your primary oral health providers, we offer regular check-ups, cleanings, and diverse treatments to maintain your teeth and gums in optimal condition.

Our proactive approach focuses on early detection and intervention, helping you avoid more serious dental issues and potentially reducing the need for extensive procedures in the future.

Our General Dentistry Services

Newport Dental offers a full spectrum of treatments to ensure that every aspect of your oral health is cared for with precision and expertise.

Preventive Care

Regular check-ups and cleanings are essential for maintaining optimal oral health. Our preventive care services include thorough dental exams, professional cleanings, and oral cancer screenings. We use advanced diagnostic tools to detect potential issues early, helping you avoid more serious problems down the line. Our team will also provide personalized advice on proper brushing and flossing techniques to enhance your at-home oral care routine.

Restorative Treatments

When dental issues arise, our restorative treatments can help bring your smile back to its best. From filling cavities to placing crowns and bridges, we use the latest techniques and materials to repair damaged teeth and restore their function and appearance. Our goal is to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible, ensuring that your restored smile looks and feels completely natural.

Periodontal Care

Healthy gums are crucial for a healthy mouth. Our periodontal care services focus on preventing, diagnosing, and treating gum disease. We offer deep cleanings, scaling and root planing, and ongoing periodontal maintenance to keep your gums in top condition. By addressing gum health, we help protect not only your smile but also your overall health, as gum disease has been linked to various systemic health issues.

Cosmetic Dentistry

While our primary focus is on health, we understand the importance of a beautiful smile. Our cosmetic dentistry services include teeth whitening, veneers, and bonding to enhance the appearance of your teeth. These treatments can boost your confidence and give you a smile you’ll love to show off. We blend artistry with dental science to create results that are both stunning and natural-looking.

Emergency Dental Care

Dental emergencies can happen at any time, and when they do, prompt care is crucial. Newport Dental offers emergency dental services to address unexpected issues like severe toothaches, broken teeth, or lost fillings. Our team is equipped to handle a wide range of dental emergencies, providing quick relief and preventing further complications.

FAQs About General Dentistry

What does a general dentist do?

A general dentist is your primary care dental provider. They diagnose, treat, and manage your overall oral health care needs, including gum care, root canals, fillings, crowns, veneers, bridges, and preventive education. They perform regular check-ups, cleanings, and screenings for oral diseases.

What are general dentistry services?

General dentistry services typically include routine check-ups, cleanings, fillings, crowns, bridges, root canals, gum care, and preventive treatments like fluoride applications and dental sealants. They also encompass patient education on proper oral hygiene practices and may include cosmetic procedures and emergency dental care.

Can a general dentist do a root canal?

Yes, many general dentists are trained to perform root canal treatments. However, in more complex cases, they may refer you to an endodontist, a specialist in root canal therapy. At Newport Dental, we assess each case individually to determine the best course of action for our patients.

Can a general dentist do implants?

While some general dentists are trained to place dental implants, it often depends on their additional training and experience. At Newport Dental, we offer dental implant services, but we also work closely with specialists when necessary to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients. During your consultation, we can discuss whether implants are right for you and the best approach for your specific case.

Testimonials

“I had an excellent experience as a new patient at this clinic. From the moment I arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I appreciated that there was minimal waiting time, and once I was in the exam room, the assistant was both caring and gentle, particularly during the x-rays. The doctor took the time to listen attentively to all of my concerns and was very understanding throughout the appointment. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking quality care.”
Izabella K

“I got all 4 my wisdom teeth removal here and some were growing in sideways and it’s been a few days and I feel so much better already and had a good recovery.
Also, I had to transfer my prescriptions to a different pharmacy after the dentist office was closed and the emergency line was so helpful and they got the prescription transferred quickly and I was able to pick up my medicine same day.
Thank you so much to Dr. Sarah Park, the dental assistant and front desk Sydney🌸💖”

“I found Newport Dental through my insurance and scheduled a teeth cleaning. I hadn’t got my teeth cleaned in years and was overdue, I also have very sensitive teeth and gums so I don’t love going to the dentist, but Newport was great! The people who worked on my teeth were nice, friendly, and very careful and gentle on my teeth, which I greatly appreciated! I will be going back!”

“Every doctor I have had at Newport has been well equipped to take care and inform me of my options for each visit. The administrative staff are always welcoming and ready to help with any adjustments I need to scheduling. The best!”
Sas S

“I went in for an annual cleaning and it was very quick and easy! Was able to do my paperwork online so I came in right on time without any extra hassle. The dentists were very nice and accommodating, making sure I was comfortable and my questions were addressed. Dr. Park was the official dentist that cleaned my teeth and she was great! She knew what she was doing and she did it with ease and speed. I think the whole appointment took no more than 30 min. Would recommend for an annual cleaning!”
Emilia S

“Wowed by the staff! Every SINGLE time!
Dental appointments are tough as is, and the staff understands that. Going in for my wisdom teeth removal for the first time, the team guided me through the process, patiently answered all my questions, and made me feel at home.
First return to the office checking in, the front desk already remembers my name. That put a smile on my face (or as much as I could smile during my wisdom teeth recovery).
And of course I overslept an early cavities appointment during my busy week, where I received follow-up phone calls to reschedule. When I actually went in, they offered to clean my Spark aligners during the procedure--simply above and beyond on both points.
Thank you Newport Dental team for your exceptional hospitality and care! Saying goodbye to this nice find as I move to a different state, hoping I can find there a provider that remotely parallels Newport Dental's service.”

“My daughter had a great experience at this office. She has a major fear of the dentist and they made her feel loved, welcomed, and not judged. Highly recommend!””

“Since I was 15 I've always hated going to the dentist, I had a seizure due to the propofol after getting my wisdom teeth pulled, however they are very nice and set me at ease. I come here for my yearly cleaning, had a tooth pulled and I'm geting an implant done as well.”
Stephanie

“First visit and they were all very kind and kept checking in which I personally liked since it's been so long I was kind of nervous. Lots of work to be done but they all seem to be very kind and and care for their patients.”
