General Dentistry
Barrie, Ontario - Canada
Your best offense and defense to a healthy mouth is a general dentist. While Dr. Adam Chapnick and his entire team at Molson Park Dental Office pride themselves on creating beautiful smiles through cosmetic dentistry procedures, they are equally as focused on getting your oral health in order through general dentistry.
Dr. Chapnick is a general dentist who is specifically trained to:
- Keep your teeth free from decay
- Treat teeth that are experiencing decay
- Prevent or treat gum disease
- Identify potential problem areas
- Identify signs of oral cancer
Patient education is at the forefront of every dental visit. While professionally cleaning your teeth, our dental hygienists can recognize areas where you may need extra information regarding your dental habits. We can teach you the proper ways to brush and floss, what type of toothbrush might be beneficial for your teeth and how to use a healthy diet to improve your oral health.
At Molson Park Dental Office, we also stress the importance of setting a good dental health example for your children. We provide family dentistry and pediatric dentistry services to keep your entire family flashing healthy, pearly whites.
Facets of General Dentistry
General dentistry is more than just cleaning your teeth and filling cavities. Aspects of this dentistry discipline include:
- Endodontics (root canals)
- Periodontistry (treatment of gum disease)
- Bad breath treatment
- Mouthguards
- Missing teeth treatment
By regularly visiting a general dentist who is also a cosmetic dentist, you have more options for treatment with certain procedures. For example, Dr. Chapnick offers tooth-colored fillings and porcelain inlays and onlays as more natural-looking dental restorations than traditional silver amalgam fillings. He is also trained to surgically implement dental implants as an alternative to dentures or dental bridges for missing teeth. Dr. Chapnick and his team take patients’ blood pressure using BioSign, a web-based program that allows other providers to update and access the results.
Not everyone is comfortable going to the dentist, which is why many people avoid the task entirely. The longer you wait between dental visits, the more severe your dental problems can become. If you are a person who becomes extremely nervous at the thought of visiting a dentist, Dr. Chapnick can help ease your anxiety by prescribing a mild sedative pill.
At Molson Park Dental Office, we want you to have a positive experience each time you visit our office. We will do everything possible to make your visit comfortable and as enjoyable as possible.
