What is general dentistry?

Regular oral hygiene and visits to the dentist can prevent or stop oral diseases early on.
General dentistry services include tartar removal, composite fillings, machine-assisted endodontics, and root reinforcement. They are designed for all patients who want to take proper care of their oral health and prevent dental diseases.

    From cleaning to complex procedures

    Step 1

    Tartar cleaning

    Cleaning is crucial for maintaining the health of your teeth and gums. It is usually recommended once or twice a year, but for individuals prone to tartar buildup, more frequent visits may be necessary.

    Step 2

    Composite fillings

    Composite fillings are aesthetic materials used to restore tooth tissue damaged by cavities. Before placing a filling, it is essential to thoroughly remove the decayed part of the tooth. The composite filling is placed to prevent bacteria from reaching the tooth’s nerve, which could cause more severe problems, and to halt further tooth decay.

    Step 3

    Machine-assisted endodontics

    Endodontic treatment involves treating the dental pulp (nerve of the tooth). The procedure includes removing the infected pulp, thoroughly cleaning the root canals, and filling the space with a synthetic material. This treatment prevents further bacteria from entering the body through the oral cavity, stopping the spread of infection.

    Step 4

    Root reinforcement

    A root post is placed into the root canal of a treated tooth. The purpose of this procedure is to strengthen the remaining structure of the tooth and surrounding tissue, enabling the creation of a dental crown or bridge. After successful endodontic therapy, the visible part of the tooth is often not preserved enough to place a composite filling, so a ceramic crown is the ideal solution for strengthening and protecting the tooth.

    FAQ about general dentistry?

    What is tartar?

    Tartar is a hard deposit that forms when plaque on the teeth, made up of bacteria, combines with saliva and mineralizes. Plaque is a colorless substance that builds up on the teeth, crowns, bridges, and other parts of the oral cavity. If plaque is not removed with regular brushing, it can turn into tartar, which may cause problems such as gum inflammation, tooth decay, and damage to the supporting structures of the teeth.

    How does cavities form?

    Cavity prevention includes brushing your teeth at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and regular dental check-ups. It is also important to avoid foods and drinks high in sugar. Special attention should be given to the back teeth, as cavities most often develop on them.

    What are the symptoms of a tooth nerve infection?

    Symptoms of a tooth nerve infection include pulsating pain that worsens at night or when lying down, swelling, pain when biting, the appearance of a fistula in the mouth, and sensitivity to temperature, especially cold. If you notice these symptoms, be sure to contact your dentist.

    How long does a composite filling last, and when should it be replaced?

    Composite fillings, made from light-cured materials, are known for their durability, high quality, and superior aesthetics. At White City Dent, we offer a two-year guarantee. While well-placed fillings can last a lifetime, those on front teeth may need occasional replacement for aesthetic reasons.

    What is periodontology?

    Periodontology is a branch of dental medicine that focuses on diseases affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Teeth are held in place by connective fibers known as periodontal ligaments, which are anchored in a thin and delicate bone surrounding the tooth. The visible part of this structure is called the gingiva, commonly known as the gums. From the moment a tooth erupts until it is lost, there is a constant battle between bacteria and the body’s defense mechanisms. When bacteria manage to destroy the soft tissues and bone around the tooth, a well-known condition called periodontitis develops.

    How to easily recognise the onset of periodontitis?

    Periodontitis can be identified by frequent gum bleeding while cleaning or brushing your teeth. It is often accompanied by bad breath, an unpleasant taste, and persistent odour in the mouth. In more advanced cases, symptoms may include loose teeth and gum recession. Inflamed and swollen gums, as well as a colour change from pink to dark red or even purple, are clear signs of periodontitis. A clinical examination by a dentist is essential to determine whether periodontal disease is present. Waiting only worsens the condition and makes treatment more difficult. We strongly recommend checking the health of your teeth at the first sign of concern—don’t wait until they start falling out, as by then, it may be too late.
