As your primary healthcare provider, Tayo Ogunsola offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- Cavity: Your dentist diagnoses and treats cavities, which are holes in your teeth caused by bacteria and acids breaking down the enamel.
- Chipped Tooth: A broken or chipped tooth can cause pain and sensitivity; a general dentist can fix the chip, preventing further problems.
- Dental Disorders: General dentists are trained to identify and manage a variety of dental disorders, ensuring proper oral hygiene and addressing issues like tooth decay or gum disease.
- Grinding of Teeth: Grinding your teeth can wear them down and cause damage. Your dentist can identify the cause and recommend treatments like a nightguard to prevent further problems.
- Tooth Abscess: A tooth abscess is a painful infection at the root of a tooth, and your general dentist can drain it, prescribe antibiotics, and potentially perform a root canal to save the tooth.
- 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: Experiencing a toothache? A general dentist can examine your tooth, determine the source of the pain, and provide effective treatment to eliminate it.
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, Tayo Ogunsola offers a range of services designed to diagnose, manage, and treat various health concerns:
- Lower Dentures: Lower dentures are custom-made appliances that replace missing lower teeth, improving your bite and overall oral health.
- 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.
- Implant-Supported Dentures: Implant-supported dentures are a type of denture that's held securely in place by dental implants, offering a more stable and comfortable fit than traditional dentures.
- Dental Bridge: A bridge is a fixed prosthetic that's cemented into place, providing a long-lasting replacement for missing teeth.
- Simple Tooth Extractions: A simple tooth extraction is a procedure to safely remove a tooth that's causing pain or impacting the health of surrounding teeth.
- Upper Dentures: If you're missing your upper teeth, upper dentures are a prosthetic device that restores your ability to eat and speak comfortably.
- Dental Bonding: Bonding is a cosmetic procedure that can fix minor imperfections in your teeth, such as discoloration or small gaps, making your smile look better.
- 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.
- 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: Teeth scaling is a professional cleaning that removes plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth, preventing gum disease and cavities.
- Composite Fillings: Instead of using metal, composite fillings use tooth-colored resin to fill cavities, creating a natural-looking repair.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving General Dentistry care with Tayo Ogunsola:
- 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 your bloodstream, increasing your risk of 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. Ogunsola 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 part of every routine dental exam. Dr. Ogunsola will visually inspect your lips, cheeks, gums, tongue, and throat for any unusual sores or discolorations. Early detection is key to successful treatment.
- Is it normal for my gums to bleed when I brush or floss?
- Healthy gums should not bleed. Bleeding when brushing or flossing is usually the first sign of gum inflammation (gingivitis), which can progress to more serious gum disease if left untreated. This is often reversible with a professional cleaning and improved daily oral hygiene.
- 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 a cap or helmet that covers the entire tooth, used when a tooth is significantly damaged, cracked, or has had a root canal, to provide strength and protection.
- 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, looking and feeling 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. Ogunsola, are trained to perform many root canals. For more complex cases, a referral to an endodontist may be necessary. Many root canals can be performed right here in our office. For difficult-to-reach molars, a referral to an endodontist may be made to ensure the best possible outcome.
- My dentures don't fit as well as they used to. What can be done?
- Over time, jawbone and gum tissue change, sometimes causing dentures to loosen. A relining procedure can reshape the denture for a better fit, or a new denture may be necessary if the current one is significantly worn. A proper fit is important for comfortable eating and speaking.
