Family Dentistry Q & A

I have kids. Should I consider family dentistry?

Yes. Cham Dental is a family dentistry practice offering services for people of all ages at one location. 

Many general dentists focus on specialties like periodontics or root canal therapy. But family dentists (like the Cham Dental team) provide all these services and more. You can even schedule an appointment for yourself and your child at the same time if necessary.

Regular visits to Cham Dental can alert you to problems and encourage top oral health for years to come. 

What services does family dentistry provide?

The Cham Dental team offers a wide range of family dentistry services, including the following:

CEREC® same-day crowns

A same-day crown is a synthetic cap bonded over a severely damaged or decaying tooth. The Cham Dental team has an in-office CEREC milling machine capable of milling custom crowns in less than an hour. 

Dental bridges

A dental bridge is a restoration that fills a gap in your smile. Bridges have an artificial tooth and two crowns or a metal framework. The artificial tooth “bridges” the gap in your smile, and the crowns or metal framework hold the restoration in place.

Professional teeth cleaning

During professional teeth cleaning, a dental hygienist or dental technician removes plaque from your teeth and beneath your gums. It’s essential to undergo teeth cleaning twice a year, even if you regularly brush and floss. Doing so can prevent cavities, gum disease, and other more serious issues. 

Pediatric dentistry

Pediatric dentistry focuses on children’s and teen’s oral health. The Cham Dental team can make personalized treatment recommendations for your child, ensuring their mouth stays healthy. 

3D Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT)

3D CBCT captures cross-sectional photos of your entire mouth. These images can provide key insights into your oral health and help guide treatment.

Sealants

Cham Dental might prescribe sealants if your child regularly gets cavities. Sealants are thin plastic coverings applied to the chewing surfaces of the teeth. They block harmful bacteria, reducing the risk of decay.

Orthodontics

Orthodontics uses appliances like braces or removable Invisalign® aligners to improve the position of the teeth and jaws. The Cham Dental team prescribes orthodontic treatment to children, teens, and adults. 

What are the benefits of family dentistry?

Establishing care with a family dentist offers various benefits, including:

  • Improved oral health
  • Reduced risk of cavities and gum disease
  • Peace of mind
  • A beautiful, vibrant smile
