What Is General Dentistry?

General dentistry focuses on preventing, diagnosing, and treating common oral health issues. At Fox View Dental, our general dentist in De Pere and his team of dental professionals aim to help patients achieve optimal oral health through comprehensive care.

We use the latest technology and an individualized approach to develop personalized treatment plans for each patient. From preventative care to early detection and treatment of oral conditions to restoration of oral health, we offer a wide range of general dentistry services to meet your dental needs.

The Importance of General Dentistry

Your oral health has a significant impact on your overall physical and mental well-being. Dentists recommend visiting a trusted dentist for general dentistry services every six months to prevent more serious oral health issues in the future. For example, early detection and treatment of oral conditions such as cavities and gum disease can help prevent more extensive dental work in the future.

At Fox View Dental, we believe good oral health is essential for a healthy and happy life. Our general dentistry services are designed to help patients achieve optimal oral health and maintain it for years to come.

General Dentistry Services Offered at Fox View Dental

Dental Cleanings & Exams

Dental cleanings and exams are a crucial part of preventative oral healthcare. During a dental cleaning, a dental hygienist or dentist will remove plaque and tartar from teeth and gums and polish teeth to remove surface stains. The dental exam portion includes reviewing the patient’s medical history, a visual examination of the mouth, and X-rays to check for potential issues, such as cavities or gum disease.

The benefits of regular dental cleanings and exams include:

  • Removes built-up plaque and tartar,
  • Prevents tooth decay and gum disease
  • Helps catch potential issues early when they’re easier to treat
  • Provides an opportunity for education and advice

Oral Cancer Screening

During your routine biannual dental check-up, our Green Bay dentist will typically perform an oral cancer screening to check for signs of cancer or precancerous conditions in your mouth, tongue, and throat. The screening process is quick and painless. It involves a visual and tactile examination of the mouth and throat, along with a review of the patient’s medical history. If Dr. Yenchesky identifies any potential issues, he may recommend additional testing or refer you to a specialist for further evaluation and treatment.

Early detection is critical for the successful treatment of oral cancer, and regular screenings can help ensure that any potential issues are caught as early as possible. By incorporating oral cancer screenings into routine dental check-ups, dentists can help their patients achieve and maintain optimal oral health and take proactive steps to address any issues.

Scaling & Root Planing

Scaling and root planing is a non-surgical deep cleaning procedure that treats gum disease, also known as periodontal disease. At Fox View Dental, Dr. Yenchesky may recommend this procedure if a patient has early to moderate stages of gum disease.

  • Scaling involves removing plaque and tartar buildup from the surface of the teeth and under the gum line. Dentists generally complete this procedure using a specialized dental tool or ultrasonic scaler.
  • Root planing involves smoothing out the rough surfaces on the roots of the teeth to help prevent future plaque and tartar buildup.

Following the procedure, patients may experience some minor discomfort, swelling, or bleeding, which should subside within a few days. Our dentist may also recommend additional follow-up appointments to monitor your progress.

Dental Sealants

Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the surfaces of the back teeth (molars and premolars) to help prevent tooth decay. Sealants are made from a safe, plastic material applied to the chewing surfaces of the teeth, where they act as a barrier to protect the teeth from the acids and bacteria that can cause decay.

Our DePere, WI dentist may recommend dental sealants for patients at a higher risk of developing cavities or who have deep grooves in their teeth. The dental sealant process is quick and painless, typically only taking a few minutes per tooth.

Fluoride Treatments

Fluoride treatments are a common part of general dentistry services, designed to help strengthen teeth and prevent tooth decay. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral clinically proven to help remineralize and strengthen tooth enamel, which is the hard, protective outer layer of the teeth.

At Fox View Dental in De Pere, WI, Dr. Yenchesky may recommend fluoride treatments for patients of all ages, particularly those at a higher risk of developing cavities or who have weak or damaged tooth enamel. The treatment involves applying a fluoride solution to the teeth in a tray or varnish form, which is then left on the teeth for a few minutes.
