Donald Richard, DMD
Family Dental Care for the Whole Family in Waltham, MA
General dentistry is as important to your smile as taking care of your teeth at home. For example, preventive exams and cleanings are necessary to avoid dental issues like tooth cavities and gingivitis. At our Waltham, MA dental office, Dr. Richard and our team offer a variety of general dentistry treatments to help your family enjoy a lifetime of healthy smiles.
The Necessity for General and Preventative Dentistry
When it comes to your oral as well as your overall health, prevention is the best medicine. Therefore, the primary focus of family dental care is preventing dental diseases from developing in the first place. Besides brushing and flossing your teeth every day, professional dental cleanings and check-ups help stop the formation of plaque and tartar. Other procedures, such as scaling and root planing (deep cleaning), bone and gum grafts, dental extractions, and more, can also help you manage existing issues before they worsen.
Caring for Your Smile in the Long Run
During your visit to your dentist’s office, your dentist will carefully examine your teeth and gums for signs of trouble. If any are present, then he or she will discuss your options for treatment to stop the issue from worsening. However, successfully protecting your smile from further trouble will still rely on maintaining good hygiene and regular general visits to your dentist’s office.
