Comprehensive Dentistry at Newcomb Dental

Comprehensive dentistry is a holistic approach focusing on your overall well-being, including oral, physical, and mental health. At Newcomb Dental, this approach examines not just your teeth but also the condition of your gums, chewing muscles, and all soft and hard tissues around your mouth.

Toothaches often have complex causes beyond just the teeth. Comprehensive dentistry addresses severe tooth decay, gum disease, tooth breakdown, weakened jaws, and crooked smiles. This approach is suitable for both adults and children.

The process begins with a thorough examination, including a dental history and noting any complaints, allergies, medications, and supplements. Digital x-rays provide detailed images of your teeth, jaws, sinuses, and jaw joints. An occlusion test assesses the health of the chewing muscles and movement of the mouth.

These methods enable the dentist to diagnose and create a treatment plan, whether you need crowns, bridges, fillings, or more extensive procedures. Using the latest technology and materials, your comprehensive dentist aims to ensure optimal oral health. Additionally, patient education is a key focus, emphasizing proper oral care techniques and products.
