Keep a Step Ahead of Decay & Dental Damage With Our Expert Care

Our dentists at Athos Dental want nothing more than to help our patients maintain healthy, beautiful smiles. Our team can use their skills to help you based on your own unique needs. Below are some types of general dental care that we offer our patients:

  • Dental Cleanings and Exams – Not only will you receive a thorough teeth cleaning, but your exam will include an oral cancer screening. We also look for signs of cavities, gum disease, and other issues.
  • Gum Disease Treatment – If we spot signs of gum disease, we have several options to control it, depending on your needs and the progression of the disease. We may recommend a deep cleaning for your gums and combine with a treatment that delivers antibiotics into your gumline.
  • Preventive Care – Fluoride treatments are good for many adults just as they are for kids. Applying fluoride to your teeth helps strengthen them and prevent cavities. We may also recommend tooth sealants, thin plastic coatings for molars that protect against cavity-causing bacteria.
  • Custom-Fit Mouthguards – You can get a professional mouthguard for injury prevention during sports or protection against harmful teeth grinding. We make mouthguards in-house or have our lab partner make them for us.
  • Halitosis (Bad Breath) Treatment – If you’re troubled by chronic bad breath, don’t be embarrassed to tell us. We’ll provide tips and make recommendations for specialty products to freshen your breath.

Common Questions About General Dentistry

What is general dentistry?

Daily oral hygiene is essential to keeping your mouth clean and healthy. But as important as brushing and flossing are, they aren’t enough on their own to protect your teeth and gums. General dentistry covers a wide range of treatments designed to help you prevent and detect dental problems so you can keep your oral health on track.

Should I use mouthwash?

Using mouthwash can be a beneficial addition to your oral hygiene routine. It can help freshen your breath, reach areas that brushing and flossing may miss, and reduce the bacteria that cause plaque and gum disease. However, it’s important to choose a mouthwash that suits your specific needs and follow the instructions carefully. Remember, mouthwash is not a substitute for regular brushing and flossing, but it can be a helpful complement to maintain good oral health.

Why should I go to a general dentist?

Visiting a general dentist is the best way to meet multiple dental needs in one place. Your dentist here at Athos Dental has the training and experience to perform most of the services you need to keep your teeth and gums healthy and beautiful. From routine exams and cleanings to complex full-mouth reconstructions and oral surgery, you’ll find a wide array of services.
