What is General Dentistry?

General dentistry is a field of dentistry that focuses on providing preventive, diagnostic, and restorative services for the mouth and teeth. From regular visits to professional cleanings, general dentists in McKinney provide treatments that help maintain oral health. Additionally, general dentists can diagnose and treat any problems you might have with your teeth or gums. They can also give you tips on proper oral hygiene and nutrition to help keep your mouth healthy.

General Dentistry Treatments

At Pixel Dental, we offer a wide range of general dentistry treatments to meet the needs of our patients. These treatments include:

  • Teeth Cleanings – Our professional teeth cleanings eliminate plaque and tartar buildup to help prevent cavities and gum disease.
  • Fillings – We use composite fillings to repair minor tooth damage caused by decay or trauma.
  • Root Canals – If you have an infected tooth, root canals may be necessary to remove the infection and save the remaining healthy portion of the tooth.
  • Crowns – Crowns are used to restore a damaged or decayed tooth to its original shape and size.
  • Bridges – Dental bridges can replace missing teeth and help support the surrounding teeth.
