General Dentistry

General dentistry is the ongoing work that keeps teeth and gums healthy between problems — examination, cleaning, and the everyday treatment that stops small issues growing.

Call 416-425-5144 Plan your visit
On the day

What to expect.

  1. A conversation about anything that has been bothering you.
  2. Examination of teeth, gums, bite and soft tissues.
  3. Cleaning to remove plaque and hardened tartar.
  4. A clear account of what was found and what, if anything, needs doing.
Every mouth is different. This is the usual shape of the appointment — your dentist will tell you what applies to you before anything begins.

Questions

What people ask.

How often should I be seen?

Most adults are seen roughly every six months, but the right interval depends on gum health, how quickly you build tartar, and your medical history.

What happens if nothing is wrong?

Then nothing is done. A check-up that finds nothing is a good outcome, not a wasted appointment.

Do I need X-rays every time?

No. They are taken when there is a reason — to see between teeth or below the gum line. Your dentist should be able to explain the reason in each case.
