Family Dentistry Specialist

What is family dentistry?

Family dentistry differs from general dentistry in that it focuses on the dental-care needs of all ages. Rather than visit multiple dental facilities for care, all of your family’s needs can be taken care of in one convenient practice.

Alpine Dental family dentistry team offer comprehensive dental services for every stage of life. Young children and teenagers have different dental needs than adults, and the experienced and knowledgeable dental team provides the right care and treatment plan for all members of the family.

What services are offered through family dentistry?

Family dentists are focused on equipping their patients with proper oral hygiene education and tools. From proper brushing techniques for toddlers to safe denture cleaning procedures for the elderly, Alpine Dental provides everything your family needs to ensure good oral health.

Other services offered by family dentists include:

• Routine exams and cleanings
• Fluoride treatments
• Cavity care and fillings
• Orthodontics
• Gum disease treatments

The dentists at Alpine Dental are exceptionally skilled in pediatric dental care, understanding the changes patients undergo from baby teeth to permanent teeth. They also offer compassionate care for children who have fears of the dentist.

Using a gentle approach, dentists ensure children feel comfortable and confident during each routine visit. Doing helps establish good oral hygiene and positive experiences in the dentist’s chair.

When should my family visit the dentist?

Family members of all ages should schedule examinations and cleanings at least two times a year. Some medical conditions, including diabetes, may require additional visits throughout the year.

For toddlers, you should schedule visits as soon as the first teeth come in. Early visits with young children encourage proper dental hygiene and reduce fears of dentist appointments.

The dentists at Alpine Dental offer a gentle touch and understand the common fears and anxieties of young patients. They make sure your child is comfortable and relaxed during each dental exam.

Alpine dentists also monitor young children for proper chewing and speech abilities. As they lose baby teeth, the dentist can ensure there are proper room and spacing for adult teeth to come in.
