Benefits of a Family Dentist
Seeing a family dentist has many benefits, including convenience! You'll save time and trips to the dentist with convenient family appointment scheduling.

This helps us provide the best dental care possible when we know your family's dental history and any oral issues that we should watch out for.
Choosing a family dentist means you won't have to worry about your children "outgrowing" a pediatric dentist's office and having to find a new dentist once they enter their teen years.

Pediatric Dental Care
Visiting the family dentist at an early
age offers several important benefits for young children, including:
- Comfort: When visits begin early, visiting the dentist is just another part of the routine, not a scary experience. Since family dentists are accustomed to providing care to young children, they know a few little tricks that will help your child enjoy visits.
- Support: Your family dentist helps reinforce the lessons you teach your children about the importance of daily hygiene. Plus, your child may be more likely to view dental visits positively when he or she accompanies you to your appointments.
- Identification
of Dental Health Issues: Issues that can affect the development of
your child's teeth and jaw can be detected during regular
examinations. If a problem is spotted, your dentist will make
treatment recommendations.
Adult Dental Care
Dental visits are just as important for adults as it is for children. Over the years, wear and tear can erode your tooth enamel, which can increase your risk of tooth decay. You're also more likely to develop painful gum disease as you grow older. Your dentist looks for signs of decay, gum disease and other dental problems during your regular visits and offers treatment that will help protect your oral health.
Four Reasons To Make Dental Health A Top Priority For Your Family
1. Dental problems can affect your overall health.
Research has shown that oral health and general health are closely linked. For one, your mouth is a main portal of entry for bacteria and viruses--any infection, decay, or inflammation gives germs a better chance of entering your body.
Also, if your immune system is constantly working to fight even low-level inflammation in your mouth, it has fewer resources to keep the rest of your body working at its peak. Even if you don't notice a problem, it's still possible to have painless decay or gingivitis that compromises your health.
2. Damaged or decayed teeth can hurt your self-confidence.
Don’t underestimate the effect that your teeth have on your quality of life. It’s easy to write it off as simple vanity, but the state of your teeth can truly affect your image and your confidence in both social and professional situations. Keeping them in top shape is one of the best things you can do to support your overall self-esteem.
3. Tooth pain can interfere with your quality of life.
Whether it’s fear of dental work or of the bill that comes afterward, there are reasons why you might try to live with tooth pain longer than you should. Chronic tooth pain can cause general irritability, difficulty getting adequate nutrition or enjoying your favorite foods, and an increased risk of more significant health problems. Catching and treating dental problems early prevents them from wreaking havoc in your life and prevents the need for bigger dental bills down the line.
4. A lifetime of good dental care helps you age gracefully.
Our teeth change as we age--that’s a given. But that doesn’t mean they can’t still look white and healthy. Whether your teeth are all-natural or you've had some or all of them replaced, caring for the teeth you have is one of the best things you can do to take years off your appearance and keep you looking youthful.
