As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Stirneman offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- Cavity: Cavities are damaged areas in your teeth caused by bacteria, and your dentist can restore your tooth's health with a filling.
- Chipped Tooth: If you have a chipped tooth, your dentist can assess the damage and choose the best treatment option to restore its function and appearance.
- Dental Disorders: Many conditions impacting your teeth and gums are considered dental disorders, and your dentist is the specialist to diagnose and treat these concerns.
- Tooth Abscess: Don't ignore a persistent toothache it might be a sign of a tooth abscess, a serious infection that your general dentist can diagnose and treat to prevent further complications.
- Tooth Decay: Tooth decay is a gradual process of erosion of the tooth surface that can lead to pain and infection, which your dentist can repair and prevent from worsening.
- Tooth Loss: Tooth loss impacts your overall health and confidence; your general dentist can help restore both with different replacement options tailored to your needs.
- Toothache: A toothache is pain in or around a tooth, and your general dentist can diagnose the cause (like a cavity or infection) and provide treatment like fillings or root canals.
This list represents some of the common conditions treated. An accurate diagnosis and a personalized care plan can only be developed through a direct consultation with a qualified medical professional.
To provide comprehensive and patient-centered care, Dr. Stirneman offers a range of services designed to diagnose, manage, and treat various health concerns:
- Denture Repair: Through denture repair, your dentist can make adjustments to improve the fit and functionality of your dentures.
- Porcelain Veneers: If you have discolored, misshapen, or slightly crooked teeth, porcelain veneers can create a straighter, brighter smile by covering the imperfections.
- Restoration of Dental Implants: If your dental implant is experiencing issues like loosening or infection, restoration aims to correct these problems and restore its functionality.
- Teeth Scaling: During a teeth scaling, your dentist uses special tools to scrape away hardened plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line, improving your gum health.
- Dental Bridge: Dental bridges restore your natural bite and prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of place.
- Composite Fillings: Instead of using metal, composite fillings use tooth-colored resin to fill cavities, creating a natural-looking repair.
- Intraoral Camera: This tiny camera allows your dentist to take clear, magnified images of your mouth, making it easier to diagnose cavities, gum disease, or other issues.
- Dental Crown: A dental crown is a cap placed over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance.
- Non-Surgical Gum Treatment: If you have gingivitis (early gum disease), non-surgical treatment focuses on cleaning your teeth and gums thoroughly to stop the infection.
- Dental Bonding: If you have a small cavity or a slightly damaged tooth, dental bonding can be a quick and relatively inexpensive way to restore it.
- Root Canal: A root canal is a procedure to repair and save a severely damaged or infected tooth by removing the damaged pulp (nerve and blood vessels) inside.
- Simple Tooth Extractions: Simple tooth extractions remove teeth that are damaged, decayed, or causing other oral health problems.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving General Dentistry care with Dr. Stirneman:
- How is my dental health connected to my overall health, like my heart?
- Your oral health is directly connected to your overall health, including your heart. Bacteria from chronic gum disease can enter your bloodstream, increasing your risk for heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular dental care isn't just about your teeth; it's a crucial part of maintaining 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. Stirneman can recommend special rinses, gels, and other strategies to manage dry mouth.
- 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 strength and protection.
- My dentures don't fit as well as they used to. What can be done?
- Over time, jawbone and gum changes can cause dentures to loosen. A relining procedure can reshape the denture for a better fit, or a new denture may be necessary if the existing one is significantly worn. A proper fit is crucial for comfortable chewing and speaking.
- What can I do about sensitive teeth?
- Tooth sensitivity is often caused by receding gums exposing the tooth root or worn-down enamel. Dr. Stirneman can recommend desensitizing toothpastes, fluoride treatments, or check for other issues like cavities or cracked teeth that could be causing the sensitivity.
- Is it normal for my gums to bleed when I brush or floss?
- No, healthy gums should not bleed. Bleeding while brushing or flossing is usually the first sign of gum inflammation (gingivitis). This is often reversible with a professional cleaning and improved daily oral hygiene, but if left untreated, it can progress to more serious gum disease.
- 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 like a natural tooth, and can help preserve the jawbone.
- If I need a root canal, will I have to see a specialist?
- General dentists, like Dr. Stirneman, can perform many root canals. For more complex cases, a referral to an endodontist may be necessary to ensure the best possible outcome. Many root canals are performed right here in the office by Dr. Stirneman.
