What does general dentistry include?

Eric Klein D.D.S. & Associates offers a wide range of general dentistry services, such as:

Preventive care

Preventive care refers to routine treatments you undergo to protect your teeth and gums. These include regular teeth cleanings, gum disease treatment, and getting help for maintaining good oral hygiene.

Emergency dental care

Emergency dental care addresses urgent dental concerns, such as knocked-out teeth,  broken dental restorations, toothaches, and other types of dental damages.

Sleep dentistry  

If you have issues like sleep apnea or TMJ, you may need custom night guards or oral appliances to help you relieve discomfort or pain. 

What treatments might I need in general dentistry?

Eric Klein D.D.S. & Associates offers several general dentistry treatments, such as:

Tooth extractions

When teeth become severely damaged or impacted, you may need a tooth extraction. Your provider may remove a tooth through a simple or surgical extraction. 

Custom mouthguards

A custom mouthguard protects your teeth from damage. Whether you participate in contact sports or grind your teeth at night, you can benefit from a mouthguard that properly supports and holds your teeth in place.

Teeth cleanings

A teeth cleaning removes plaque, which is a sticky film of bacteria, from your teeth and gums. Removing the plaque and tartar (hardened plaque) is important to prevent cavities and gum disease. Eric Klein D.D.S. & Associates recommends visiting twice a year for professional teeth cleanings.
