Maintain Excellent Oral Health With General Dentistry in Tampa

A healthy mouth doesn’t happen by accident. To keep your teeth and gums in great shape, you’ll want to brush and floss daily and visit our office regularly for general dentistry in Tampa.

With our general dental services, we will:

  • Remove plaque and tartar that you’ve missed with your home oral hygiene
  • Get to know your smile goals so we can suggest personalized treatments to help you achieve them
  • Welcome children as young as age 3 to give them a positive introduction to dental care
  • Find problems like cavities and gum disease so we can treat them before they threaten your oral health
  • Recommend preventive care such as gum disease treatment or dental sealants if needed

We recommend appointments for cleanings and exams every six months. To schedule one, call Doering Family Dental today at 813-590-6649.

Find the General Dental Care Your Smile Needs

To supplement home brushing and flossing, we offer these preventive services:

  • Dental Exams and Cleanings – Regular cleanings and exams are the foundation of a healthy mouth. We use digital X-rays and laser cavity detectors to find problems in their earliest stages.
  • Gum Disease Treatment – We use a deep cleaning treatment called scaling and root planing to keep early gum disease from advancing to a more damaging stage.
  • Mouthguards – Dr. Doering can make a custom mouthguard to protect your teeth during sports or to keep you from grinding your teeth in your sleep.
  • Dental Sealants – These thin protective layers help keep hard-to-reach areas like back teeth free of decay.
  • Fluoride Treatments – Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel to make it more resistant to cavities.

New Patients Receive an Easy Introduction to Our Practice

Exams are essential to your dental health. We want to start new patients off with digital X-rays and a consultation. During your initial exam, you can expect:

  • A thorough evaluation of your dental health, including X-rays
  • An oral cancer screening
  • A periodontal exam to ensure your gums are healthy
  • A discussion of your dental goals
  • A review of payment options and other aspects of our practice

For general dentistry in Tampa, call us today at 813-590-6649. Or request an appointment online.

Common Questions About General Dentistry

Which mouthguards work best?

The best mouthguard is one made especially for your or your child’s mouth. A professionally made mouthguard will outperform a store-bought “boil-and-bite” mouthguard because it will fit better, provide superior protection, and last longer. At Doering Family Dental, we can have athletic mouthguards made, as well as mouthguards to prevent teeth grinding while you sleep.

What is gum disease treatment?

Gum disease can be treated in a variety of ways, but the most conservative method is with a deep cleaning known as scaling and root planing. This is where your dentist or hygienist removes infection caused by bacterial plaque below and around your gumline and then smooths out your tooth roots so bacteria doesn’t return. Advanced gum disease may require other procedures to rebuild recessed tissue, like grafting, to prevent tooth and bone loss.

Why are mouthguards important?

The most common reason to wear a mouthguard is to protect your teeth and gums while playing sports. Whether you’re participating in a contact sport or not, a well-made mouthguard is your best defense against blows to the mouth, teeth, gums, and jaw. Mouthguards can also alleviate symptoms of teeth grinding and TMJ disorders.
