Howard Hoerath, D.D.S.
General Dental Care for the Whole Family in Saint Joseph, MO
Routine family dentistry is as essential to your smile as brushing and flossing your teeth. For example, preventive exams and cleanings are necessary to avoid dental issues like tooth decay and periodontitis. At our Saint Joseph, MO dental office, Dr. Hoerath and our team offer a variety of general dentistry treatments to help you enjoy a lifetime of beautiful smiles.
The Importance of General and Preventative Dentistry
In all aspects of your health, prevention is the best medicine. Therefore, the primary focus of general dentistry is preventing issues from developing in the first place. Besides practicing good hygiene, professional dental cleanings and check-ups help stop the formation of plaque and tartar. Other treatments, such as scaling and root planing (deep cleaning), bone and gum grafts, dental extractions, and more, can also help you address existing issues before they worsen.
Caring for Your Smile in the Long Run
During your visit to your dentist’s office, your dentist will thoroughly inspect your teeth and oral tissues for signs of trouble. Then he or she will consult with you about appropriate treatment options to stop the issue from growing worse. However, caring for your smile will still rely on ongoing general dental care.
