Your general dentist provides the utmost care for every member of the family, at any age. One aspect of treating the diverse needs of our patients is building strong relationships. There’s nothing we like better than serving multiple generations of families!
We Treat Family Members of All Ages
As you Chapel Hill general dentist, when we meet with your family, we will determine if you’re at risk for conditions like gum disease and discuss healthy practices that can be encouraged at home. We typically recommended that children begin receiving professional dental care between two to three years of age.
Today, we see many people who are keeping their natural teeth well into their eighties and nineties. Regular professional check-ups and cleanings as recommended by your dentist are especially important as you age. Certain medications or medical conditions may reduce natural saliva production, and without adequate saliva, your teeth are more susceptible to decay.
When teeth are missing, we work with patients to find the most suitable form of replacement. This might be dental implants, dentures, a dental bridge, or a dental crown. Most importantly, we treat each patient as a unique individual with specific needs and desires.
