General Treatments

General dental treatments encompass various procedures aimed at maintaining and improving oral health. These treatments, which hold an important place in dentistry, aim to preserve the overall health of the teeth, gums, and oral tissues. Dental health is important not only for aesthetic reasons but also for overall health, as problems in the mouth can lead to other health issues.

The most common general dental treatments include dental exams, teeth cleaning, fillings, root canal treatment, and tooth extractions. Dental exams are regularly performed to assess the oral and dental health of patients. Teeth cleaning is performed to remove plaque and tartar buildup and helps prevent gum diseases.

When cavities are detected, they are treated with fillings. Root canal treatment involves removing infected tissue from the inside of the tooth and restructuring the tooth. Tooth extraction is the removal of teeth that cannot be treated to prevent negative effects on oral health.

In addition, general dental treatments also include orthodontic treatments. Orthodontic treatment is a method applied to correct the alignment of teeth and jaw structure, typically through braces. Additionally, implant treatment involves placing artificial tooth roots where teeth are lost, providing the closest solution to natural teeth.

General dental treatments also help raise awareness among patients about their oral health. Dentists contribute to the patients' health by providing information on oral hygiene and healthy eating habits. As a result, general dental treatments offer a holistic approach to ensuring individuals have healthy oral structures. Healthy teeth are essential for a healthy life, and regular dental check-ups play a crucial role in maintaining oral health.
