What to Look For in General Dentistry
General and family dentistry is the foundation of what we do at Kits Dental Group. Regular check ups, cleanings, and preventive treatments help detect concerns early and support the health of your teeth and gums over time. We welcome patients at different stages of life, from young adults and families to long term residents of the neighborhood.
Exams and check ups
A routine exam allows us to review your teeth, gums, bite, and any existing restorations. We may use digital X-rays, photographs, or a scanner where appropriate. During the visit, we discuss any changes you have noticed, review findings together, and talk through options if treatment is recommended.
Preventive care and cleanings
Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar that are difficult to manage with brushing and flossing alone. Our hygiene team also checks the health of your gums, reviews home care habits, and offers practical tips that fit your lifestyle. Depending on your risk factors, we will suggest a recall schedule that makes sense for you.
Dentistry for everyday concerns
We provide treatment for common issues that come up in daily life, such as:
Tooth coloured fillings for cavities
Simple extractions where a tooth cannot be restored
Treatment for chipped or worn teeth
Night guards for grinding or clenching, where appropriate
If additional specialty care is needed, we will explain why and help you consider referral options.
Care for different life stages
Oral health needs can change over time. We adjust our recommendations based on where you are in life, your medical history, and your goals. That might mean focusing on education and habits for younger patients, planning longer term work in phases for adults, or monitoring existing restorations and gum health more closely as you age.
Closing Thoughts:
If it has been some time since your last check up, we will start with an exam and a conversation, then move forward at a pace that feels manageable.
