As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Cevallos offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- Tooth Demineralization: Demineralization weakens your teeth by removing essential minerals, increasing the risk of cavities and sensitivity; your dentist can detect it early and recommend treatments to restore your teeth's strength.
- Dry Tooth Socket: When a tooth is pulled, a blood clot should form; if it doesn't (dry socket), your dentist can treat the pain and infection with medication and other procedures.
- Excessive Tooth Wear: Excessive tooth wear can lead to dental problems like tooth sensitivity and damage to the underlying dentin, making restorative treatments from your general dentist necessary to maintain your oral health.
- Chipped Tooth: Don't ignore a chipped tooth! Your general dentist can provide treatment, ranging from simple repair to more extensive restorative work.
- Cleft Lip and Palate: Because cleft lip and palate can affect tooth development and alignment, a general dentist provides ongoing dental care to improve oral health and function.
- Open Bite: An open bite is a dental condition where the upper and lower front teeth don't meet when your mouth is closed, and your dentist can help diagnose and create a treatment plan.
- 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.
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. Cevallos offers a range of services designed to diagnose, manage, and treat various health concerns:
- Oral Surgical Procedures: Oral surgical procedures are operations performed in the mouth, often involving tooth removal or other treatments for gum disease or jaw problems.
- Dental Examination: Your dentist uses a dental exam to assess the overall health of your mouth, teeth, and gums, allowing for early diagnosis and treatment of any issues.
- Root Canal Retreatment: This procedure is used to address issues like persistent infection or a poorly sealed root canal from a previous treatment.
- Scaling and Root Planing: To treat gum disease and prevent tooth loss, your dentist may perform scaling and root planing, a procedure to thoroughly clean your teeth below the gum line.
- Molar Endodontics: Molar endodontics, or root canal treatment on molars, saves badly damaged teeth by removing the infected pulp and sealing the tooth to prevent further infection.
- Impacted Tooth Removal: Impacted tooth removal is a surgical procedure to extract a tooth that's stuck or unable to erupt normally.
- Porcelain Crown: A porcelain crown is a tooth-shaped cap that fits over a damaged tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving General Dentistry care with Dr. Cevallos:
- How is my dental health connected to my overall health, like my heart?
- Your oral health is critically linked to your overall health, including your heart. Bacteria from chronic gum disease can enter your bloodstream, increasing your risk of heart disease, stroke, and poorly controlled diabetes. Regular dental care isn't just about teeth; it's an essential 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. Cevallos can recommend special rinses, gels, and other strategies to manage dry mouth.
- 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 nothing hurts. These visits are crucial for preventing problems like tartar buildup, cavities, and gum disease, which can be costly and painful to treat if left untreated.
- What can I do about sensitive teeth?
- Sensitivity is often caused by receding gums exposing the tooth root or worn-down enamel. Dr. Cevallos can recommend desensitizing toothpastes, apply fluoride treatments, or check for other issues like cavities or cracked teeth that could be causing the sensitivity.
- What is an oral cancer screening and is it part of my check-up?
- An oral cancer screening is a quick, painless visual inspection of your lips, cheeks, gums, tongue, and throat for any unusual sores or discolorations. Dr. Cevallos performs this vital part of every routine exam, and early detection is key to successful treatment.
- 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, restoring a natural look and feel, 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.
- If I need a root canal, will I have to see a specialist?
- General dentists, like Dr. Cevallos, 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 can be performed right here in the office by Dr. Cevallos.
