GENERAL DENTISTRY
Have You Had a Recent Dental Checkup?

General dentistry restores oral health through appropriate therapies. If you develop a cavity, for example, the appropriate general dentistry therapy is a dental filling.

Our general dentistry services also include:

Root canal therapy to clear away root infections and restore tooth health
Tooth extractions for severe decay, trauma, troublesome wisdom teeth, and pre-orthodontics
Tooth replacement options like dentures, partial dentures, dental bridges, and dental implants
Your dentist always explains the state of your oral health and lets you know why he recommends specific treatments. We also encourage you to make informed decisions about your oral care, which is why we share all the details with you.

If you are keeping up with your dental hygiene habits at home, you have taken a huge first step toward protecting your teeth. But daily brushing and flossing alone are not enough to keep your smile healthy.

To give yourself the best chance of keeping all of your natural teeth healthy and problem-free, you need to visit a general dentist in Sedalia, MO at least once every six months. Although you should continue to be diligent in your at-home care, you also need the professional help only a dentist can give. At Tiger Family Dental, we want to work with you as an equal part of your healthcare team to protect and preserve your teeth.

If you have a specific oral health concern like gingivitis, your dentist may recommend a more customized treatment schedule.

When you visit our Sedalia, MO dentist for a preventive dentistry appointment, we will take x-rays of your mouth and thoroughly clean each of your teeth. We use professional dental instruments that can remove plaque and debris the way that a toothbrush simply cannot.

When you stay current on your dental appointments, you allow our caring dental team to help you by checking for cavities, screening you for oral cancer, removing hidden plaque that has built up on your teeth, and ensuring none of your teeth are mobile or loose. This means if a problem does happen to develop, we are far more likely to catch it early on.

At Tiger Family Dental, we believe that dentistry is a partnership between dentist and patient. We take care of your teeth and gums in our dental office, while you see to excellent brushing and flossing between dental visits.

Quality dental care contributes to your overall health and wellness, which makes dental care crucial to your well-being.

Dental infections and periodontal disease, for example, can cost you your teeth, and the latter has been linked to heart attack, stroke, and even dementia.

Additionally, opportunistic infections, without treatment, can spread and dramatically influence your overall health.

Missing teeth influence digestive health.

Healthy teeth and gums not only promote wellness but may also make you a good candidate for cosmetic dentistry if you decide to take your smile o the next level.

• Professional teeth whitening
• Dental veneers

At Tiger Family Dentistry, we enjoy treating children and educating them about their oral health.
