Family dentistry promotes a lifetime of healthy smiles for every family member. This means providing dental care that’s not only effective but also compassionate and comfortable. At Cedar Creek Dental: Office of Dr. Phil Han, personalized care and quality treatment are our top priorities. With regular checkups and cleanings, you can maintain excellent oral health and catch potential problems before they require more involved treatment. Your dentist can detect cavities early and provide simple fillings to keep the tooth healthy and avoid more extensive procedures in the future.
The Benefits of Family Dentistry
Personalized Treatment for Your Whole Family
Having a family dentist enables you to enjoy certain convenience features. These may include early morning and evening appointments, emergency hours, the availability of weekend appointments, and the ability to schedule multiple family members simultaneously in one appointment.
In addition to these benefits, your whole family can also have regular cleanings and checkups with a family dentist in one visit. These visits will help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other common dental health problems. You can also talk to your family dentist about cosmetic procedures such as teeth whitening, tooth-colored fillings, veneers, and more.
Improved Oral Health For Every Member Of The Family
Seeing the same dentist regularly means that your family’s oral care needs can be consistently met. Every dentist visit helps prevent tooth decay and gum disease, particularly in younger family members who may not know how to care for their smiles at home properly. If your family sees a new dentist every time a member visits the office, the caregiver may not notice a difference in how teeth look or feel, which may mean a problem could go undetected and worsen, which would require more time in the dentist’s office to address.
Family Dentistry Services
Cleanings
Regular cleanings remove plaque from teeth and give patients a healthy smile they would be proud to show off. We recommend that adult patients have their teeth professionally cleaned every six months, while patients should schedule appointments for children every one to two years.
Exams
Routine exams enable us to spot oral health problems before they become serious. These regular visits are essential because they will enable us to catch issues like tooth decay, gum disease, and other concerns in their early stages.
Dental Crowns and Bridges
When a patient has one or more missing teeth, we can use crowns or bridges to replace them. Rather than just fixing removable dentures that could slip off at inconvenient or embarrassing occasions, these restorations are bonded over the tooth for stabilization. Patients love the way they look and function!
