- Dental Trauma: A general dentist can help you deal with the effects of dental trauma, from simple chips and cracks to severe jaw injuries.

- Tooth Damage: Damaged teeth can be caused by injury, decay, or grinding, and a general dentist offers various treatments to restore their strength and appearance.
- Tooth Decay Caused by Acid Attack: Acid attacks from sugary foods and drinks weaken your teeth, leading to cavities; your dentist can repair these with fillings or other treatments.
- Tooth Malformation: Tooth malformations are developmental problems affecting the structure of your teeth; your general dentist can evaluate these and propose options like straightening with braces or reshaping with cosmetic dentistry.
- Tooth Pulp Inflammation: Experiencing tooth pain that indicates an infection of the tooth's nerve? This is tooth pulp inflammation, which your dentist can effectively manage.

- Fluoride Treatment: Fluoride treatments help strengthen tooth enamel, making teeth more resistant to cavities.
- Removable Appliances: Removable appliances can improve your ability to eat, speak, and smile comfortably, while also improving your overall oral health.
- Root Canal: If a tooth's nerve is infected or dying, a root canal removes the infection, cleans the root canals, and seals them to prevent further damage and save the tooth.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving General Dentistry care with Dr. Bean:
- How is my dental health connected to my overall health, like my heart?
- Your oral health is critically linked to your overall health. Bacteria from chronic gum disease can enter the bloodstream, increasing your risk for heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular dental care is essential for maintaining not only healthy teeth but also your overall well-being.
- My medications make my mouth constantly dry. Is this a dental problem?
- Yes, dry mouth (xerostomia) is a common side effect of many medications. Saliva is the body's natural defense against cavities, so a dry mouth significantly increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Dr. Bean can recommend special rinses, gels, and other strategies to manage dry mouth.
- What is an oral cancer screening and is it part of my check-up?
- An oral cancer screening is a quick, painless visual examination of your mouth, lips, cheeks, gums, tongue, and throat. Dr. Bean will look for any unusual sores or discolorations during your routine check-up. Early detection is crucial for successful treatment.
- If I need a root canal, will I have to see a specialist?
- General dentists, like Dr. Bean, can perform many root canals. For more complex cases, a referral to an endodontist may be necessary to ensure the best possible outcome. In many cases, Dr. Bean can perform your root canal right here in the office.
- What can I do about sensitive teeth?
- Sensitivity is often caused by receding gums exposing the tooth root, or by worn-down enamel. Dr. Bean can recommend desensitizing toothpastes, apply fluoride treatments, or check for other issues like cavities or cracked teeth that could be causing the sensitivity.
- Are dental implants a good option for replacing missing teeth?
- Dental implants are often an excellent long-term solution for replacing missing teeth. They provide a secure foundation for a crown or bridge that looks and feels natural, and can help preserve the jawbone.
- What is the difference between a crown and a filling?
- A filling is like a patch to repair a small area of a damaged tooth. A crown is like a cap or helmet that covers the entire tooth, used when a tooth is significantly damaged, cracked, or has had a root canal, providing extra strength and protection.
- How often should I see the dentist, even if nothing hurts?
- Most people benefit from a check-up and cleaning every six months, even if they aren't experiencing any pain. These visits are essential for preventing problems like cavities and gum disease, which can be caught early and treated more easily. Regular check-ups allow our team to remove tartar buildup and help maintain a healthy smile.
