What Is Family Dentistry?

Family dentistry involves the treatment of patients of a wide range of ages. While much of the training for becoming a dental professional involves learning about the field of dentistry and how to perform specific procedures, learning how to meet the needs of different patients is also a crucial aspect. 

Family dentists specifically learn how to meet the oral care needs of patients ranging from older teens to seniors. 

Perhaps the most important aspect of family dentistry is that it allows patients and their spouses, adult children, and elderly parents to see the same dentist for their oral care. This is a great way to simplify their lives and make taking care of their family’s oral health as easy as possible.  

Our Family Dentistry Services

We offer a wide range of cosmetic, restorative, preventive, and orthodontic services that we hope can help simplify dental care for you and your family. Below are some of the most common among them.

Routine Exams

It doesn’t matter what age you are; routine exams every six months or so are crucial to preventing tooth decay, gum disease, and a host of other oral health issues. Diana Rodriguez, DMD, is happy to provide your family with the regular checkups they need to keep their smiles bright and healthy.

Teeth Cleaning

Everybody needs to have their teeth cleaned on a regular basis. You simply can’t achieve the level of oral hygiene needed to protect your teeth and gums just by brushing, flossing, and eating right. Deep cleaning and polishing, along with a routine exam, is the best way to ensure that you and your family maintain great oral health.

Teeth Whitening

A glowing white smile is great at any age, but it’s a lot more difficult to have one as we get older. Staining and discoloration often come with the territory of older age, but a teeth whitening procedure can go a long way toward combatting those issues and leaving you with a healthy white smile you can be proud of.

Dental Fillings

As people age, the possibility of getting cavities increases, but younger adults also tend to think both they and their teeth are invincible, which makes them susceptible to tooth decay. 

We can not only help your family treat any decay that may have already occurred, but we can also help them learn how to prevent any future decay from developing.

Dental Restorations

If, for whatever reason, you or a family member have a tooth or teeth that have sustained significant damage or decay, we can provide you with the procedure you need to restore your smile. Our restorative family dentistry procedures include: 

• Dental crowns
• Dental bridges
• Inlays and onlays
• Dentures
• Dental implants
• Mini dental implants
• Fix-on-six dental implants

Whether your college student broke a tooth playing contact sports or your elderly parent is looking for implant-supported dentures to restore form and function to their mouths, we can help them out.  

Periodontal Treatment

We offer treatment for all stages of gum disease. This issue is often overlooked, but if allowed to develop, it can cause serious issues with both your oral and overall health. It can affect people of any age, but the older members of your family are far more susceptible to it.

Compassionate Care for Patients over the Age of 18

People of all ages can have dental anxiety for a wide range of reasons. While there are a variety of things you or your family member can try to do to ease your nerves about visiting a family dentist, Diana Rodriguez, DMD, believes that it’s also in the dentist’s hands.

She feels a responsibility to provide patients with the kind of comforting environment and compassionate care that can calm their nerves so they can receive the care they need. 

If you or your family members are uneasy about dental visits, let us know, and we’ll make sure to help you through by moving along at your own pace and remaining as communicative and responsive as possible throughout the whole process.

Free Family Dentistry Consultations

It’s an unfortunate fact that cost is one of the primary reasons why many people forego dental care. That’s why we offer free consultations to all of our patients. We can sit down with you or your family member and go over your issues in order to formulate a custom treatment plan. Afterward, you will know your options and the costs involved and can plan accordingly.
