Family dentistry is more than just regular check-ups and cleanings. It's a comprehensive approach to oral health, focusing on prevention, education, and treatment for all family members, from children to adults. Our family dentistry services include everything from routine cleanings, fillings, and extractions to more complex procedures like root canals and dental implants. We provide a comfortable and friendly environment where your family's oral health is our top priority.
Why Should I Get Family Dentistry?
Family dentistry is essential for maintaining good oral health and preventing dental issues. Regular visits to a family dentist can help detect dental problems early when they're easier and less expensive to treat. A family dentist can also provide personalized advice on proper oral hygiene practices, diet, and other factors that affect oral health. Plus, having a single family dentist for all family members means convenience. You can schedule appointments for everyone on the same day, saving you time and effort.

The Benefits Of Family Dentistry
Comprehensive Care
Family dentistry at Aberdeen Dentistry provides comprehensive care for all family members, regardless of age. This means we can monitor your family's oral health over time, making it easier to spot any changes or potential problems.
Convenience
One of the significant benefits of family dentistry is the convenience it offers. Instead of scheduling appointments with different dentists for different family members, you can manage everyone's dental care in one place.
Prevention and Education
Family dentistry focuses heavily on prevention and education. Regular check-ups allow us to catch potential issues early, and we also educate our patients about good oral hygiene practices and the importance of a healthy diet.
The Family Dentistry Treatment Process
Initial Consultation
The first step in the family dentistry treatment process is an initial consultation. This is where we get to know you and your family, understand your oral health history, and discuss any concerns or goals you may have. During this visit, we'll also review any previous dental records you might have and discuss your family's lifestyle and dietary habits. This helps us create a comprehensive picture of your overall oral health and allows us to tailor our approach to your specific needs.
Comprehensive Examination
The next step is a comprehensive examination. This includes a thorough cleaning, X-rays if necessary, and a complete examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth. We'll look for any signs of potential issues, such as cavities, gum disease, or oral cancer. Our state-of-the-art technology allows us to detect even the smallest issues that might not be visible to the naked eye. We'll also assess your bite and jaw alignment to ensure everything is functioning properly.
Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on the results of the examination, we'll create a personalized treatment plan for each family member. This could include preventive measures, like regular cleanings and fluoride treatments, restorative procedures, or referrals to specialists if needed. We'll explain each recommended treatment in detail, discussing the benefits, potential risks, and expected outcomes. Our team will also provide you with a clear timeline and cost estimate for any proposed treatments, ensuring you're fully informed and comfortable with the plan moving forward.
