      General Dentistry: Keeping Your Teeth Healthy and Smile Bright

      What Does a General Dentist Do?

      General dentists play a critical role in preventative oral care, focusing on the health of your teeth and gums. A general dentist will identify and address potential problems early in order to avoid serious issues later on.

      At Lakeview Dental, we use advanced equipment to keep an eye on changes in your mouth and teeth.

      Who is a General Dentist?

      General Dentists are professionals trained to diagnose and treat oral health conditions. Many general dentists such as Dr. Sigel take additional training to be able to offer advanced treatment options for their patients such as bone and soft tissue grafting, implant technology and so much more! At Lakeview Dental, our passionate team is committed to the patient experience and providing a wide range of high-quality, dental services that patients love.

      At Lakeview Dental, our General Dentist & Implantologist— Dr. Sigel is committed to the patient experience, and to providing a wide range of high-quality dental services that patients love.

      The Significance of General Dentistry

      Your oral health is a window to your overall health. Ignoring dental care can lead to complications affecting your entire body.

      The Process of a General Dentist Visit

      Every appointment at Lakeview Dental is comprehensive. We strive to understand each patient’s specific needs and offer tailored treatment plans. A typical first visit might include discussing your dental history, a detailed examination, x-rays, and thorough cleaning. We then schedule your subsequent appointments.

      What Services are Included in General Dentistry?

      Oral Health Examinations

      Whether it’s your first visit or you’re a returning patient, Lakeview Dental is equipped to offer thorough oral health examinations. If you have specific concerns or face a dental emergency, our adept and empathetic team is ready to assess, diagnose, and create a tailored treatment plan, ensuring you are informed about your oral health status.

      Hygiene & Check-ups

      We recommend routine dental inspections and cleanings every six months, but this can vary according to individual needs. Our dental hygienists assess the condition of your teeth and gums and collaborate with you and the dentist to devise the best plan to achieve excellent oral health.

      Dental Fillings

      To treat cavities, Dr. Sigel eliminates the decayed part of the tooth and fills the area with appropriate material. This procedure is also suitable for repairing broken or worn-down teeth resulting from grinding or clenching.

      Dental Extractions

      For reasons like impacted wisdom teeth, extensive decay, or dental trauma, extractions are sometimes necessary. Dr. Sigel is well-trained to handle complex extractions in-house, saving patients additional costs and wait times associated with specialist referrals.

      Endodontics

      Root canal treatment is commonly performed to save natural teeth by treating the infected dental pulp, the nerve and blood supply of the tooth. Leaving such infections untreated can lead to pain, swelling, and overall health risks.

      Pediatric Dentistry

      At Lakeview Dental, we’re excited to be the dental home for your kids. Early familiarization with dental visits fosters lifelong positive oral hygiene habits. We offer examinations, preventive and restorative treatments for children, and refer complex cases to specialized pediatric dentists in West Kelowna.

      Dentures

      For those missing teeth, dentures offer a viable solution to restore your smile and chewing function. These removable dental appliances are custom-made, ensuring comfort and functionality while giving the oral tissues time to breathe at night.

      Bruxism Appliances (Night Guards)

      Teeth grinding or clenching, often stress-induced, can lead to headaches, jaw pain, and tooth damage. Night guards are an excellent solution to alleviate these issues, offering protection against excessive wear and TMJ problems.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How often should I visit a general dentist?

      Visiting Lakeview Dental in West Kelowna every six months for a check-up and cleaning is a good rule. But if your teeth or gums hurt, don’t wait! Make an appointment right away.

      Is general dentistry suitable for children?

      Of course! Our Denstist, Dr. Sigel, at Lakeview Dental is happy to see everyone, from kids to grandparents. We know how to take care of children’s teeth and make sure the little ones feel safe and happy during their visit.

      What's the difference between a general dentist and a specialist?

      General dentists, like Dr. Sigel at Lakeview Dental, are your go-to professionals for overall oral care needs. They help with things like caring for gums, filling cavities, and teaching you how to avoid tooth problems. Specialists, however, only work on specific issues or parts of the mouth, and your regular dentist will tell you if you need to see them.

      Can a general dentist perform teeth whitening?

      Yes, indeed! The team at Lakeview Dental can make your teeth shine bright. They know how to make your teeth white quickly, safely, and better than the products you find in stores.

      When Did You Last Visit a Dentist?

      Regardless of when you last visited a dentist, Lakeview Dental is ready to offer gentle and considerate care. Our new patient consultations and expert teeth cleaning services guarantee a comfortable and relaxed experience.

      What Will It Cost?

      The expense of seeing a general dentist depends on the required services. We at Lakeview Dental are committed to providing cost-effective care without sacrificing quality. A detailed cost outline is provided during the treatment planning stage for clarity.

      Is It Covered by Insurance?

      Most insurance plans cover part of the general dentistry services like routine inspections, cleanings, x-rays, and essential treatments. It’s advisable to consult your insurance carrier for precise coverage information. If you are unsure—please give us a call and we will help you figure out your insurance!
