What is family dentistry?
Family dentistry is the provision of dental care for people of all ages, from the pediatric patient to the geriatric patient. It involves providing all the necessary care needed for these varying age groups, practically the whole family.
Benefits of family dentistry
The benefits of family dentistry include the ability to take care of routine matters, such as hygiene, detecting issues that are starting early, intervening and managing things at an early age for the pediatric or adolescent patient, and also being able to manage things for the geriatric patient before they turn into a problem.
Do all dentists provide family dentistry?
Yes, all dentists have the ability to provide family dentistry, but not all dentists are comfortable treating children, adolescents, or geriatrics. However, at Sweetheart Dental, we cater for all ages for any issue that you may have.
Services that fall under family dental care
Family dental care includes several services, starting with hygiene, ensuring that the hygiene is at the required level and providing necessary care if it is not. We also manage any issues that may arise with the pediatric patient, such as spacing issues, which may involve orthodontic care earlier to provide a clearer path for the teeth to align and provide good occlusion and harmony with the patient. In addition, we provide care for the geriatric patient, for instance, if a patient has dry mouth due to taking numerous medications, we can intervene and offer care sooner rather than later.
