Our General Dentistry Services

 

  • Dental Cleanings: Regular dental cleanings are a cornerstone of oral health and general dentistry. At French Smiles, we recommend that our patients schedule cleanings twice a year. These sessions involve removing plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing might miss, which helps prevent gum disease and tooth decay. Our skilled hygienists will also provide you with personalized tips for improving your at-home oral hygiene routine.
  • Dental Crowns: Crowns are used to restore the strength, shape, and size of a tooth. They are recommended for teeth that have been weakened by decay, cracks, or trauma. Our dental crowths are crafted from high-quality materials that match the color of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and aesthetic restoration.
  • Dental Crowns with CEREC: For those who need a quick restoration, we offer dental crowns using CEREC technology. This advanced technique allows us to design, create, and fit individual ceramic restorations in just one visit. With CEREC, there’s no need for temporary crowns or multiple visits. You can walk out of our office with a permanent, perfectly matched crown the same day.
  • Dental Bridges: Missing teeth can affect your ability to speak and chew and can cause other teeth to shift unfavorably. Dental bridges literally bridge the gap created by one or more missing teeth. They are anchored on either side by crowns and can restore the functionality and aesthetics of your teeth.
  • Dental Sealants: Sealants are a preventive treatment aimed at combating tooth decay. This simple procedure involves applying a clear or tooth-colored resin material to the chewing surfaces of the molars. The sealant acts as a barrier, protecting enamel from plaque and acids and is especially useful for children who are still learning effective brushing techniques.
  • Fillings: Fillings are used in general dentistry to repair teeth that have been damaged by decay. At French Smiles, we remove the decayed tooth material, clean the affected area, and then fill the cavity with a filling material. We offer both mercury-safe and tooth-colored options to meet our patients’ health and aesthetic preferences.
  • Fluoride Treatments: Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps prevent cavities and can even reverse the early stages of tooth decay. Our fluoride treatments are quick and painless and can be administered during your routine dental cleaning appointments. They are particularly beneficial for children and adults at high risk of dental decay.
  • Mercury-Safe and Mercury-Free Fillings: Understanding the concerns many patients have about the use of mercury in dentistry, we offer both mercury-safe removal and replacement of existing amalgam fillings as well as mercury-free fillings for new treatments. Our mercury-free fillings are not only safer but also more aesthetically pleasing, as they match the natural color of your teeth.
  • Tooth-Colored Fillings: For a more natural look, we offer tooth-colored fillings. These fillings are made from durable composites that are similar in color to natural teeth, making them an excellent choice for filling cavities in visible areas. Tooth-colored fillings are not only aesthetically pleasing but also form a strong bond with the tooth structure, which helps restore the tooth’s original strength and function.
