General Dentistry in San Jose CA

General dentists are trained to provide treatment to all types of common oral concerns, both functional and aesthetic. They often offer family services, where they treat all members of a family, irrespective of their ages and dental concerns. Visiting a common general dentist has a few advantages over consulting different dentists for different oral concerns.

What services do General Dentists offer?

Cosmetic dentistry: The specific branch of dentistry that aims at enhancing the aesthetic of one's smile is called cosmetic dentistry. General dentists offer cosmetic dental treatment in the form of teeth whitening, composite bonding, veneers, crowns, etc.

Restorative dentistry: Dental restorations such as crowns, veneers, bridges, implants, etc., are used to bring the teeth back to their ideal contour, structural integrity, and functionality. Crowns are hollow on the inside and are placed on damaged or misshapen teeth to hold them intact. Bridges and implants are teeth restorations that replace missing natural teeth. They are made from tooth-colored ceramic, which gives them their natural appearance, durability, and strength. Veneers are thin restorations made from a ceramic or composite resin and are bonded to the frontal surface of the teeth.

Orthodontic solutions: Correcting the alignment of the teeth is crucial in improving the functionality and aesthetics of the teeth. We offer orthodontic treatment using aligners such as dental braces or Invisalign.

Routine consultations: Regular dental consultations are required at least once every six months for the dentist to conduct a comprehensive diagnosis of your mouth and detect the onset of any oral infections. We will also perform oral cleanings, place fillings if we spot any cavities, and provide suitable treatment to counter oral diseases.

Pediatric dentistry: Treating infants and children would require a certain approach to make them feel comfortable with the treatment. At Varni Dental, we give a lot of emphasis to this and make sure we approach young patients in a friendly and compassionate manner. We also monitor the growth of their teeth regularly to make sure they develop a pleasing, healthy, and ideally-spaced smile.
