Common Questions About Family Dentistry
Q What is family dentistry?
Family dentistry is dental care designed to serve every member of a household, rather than focusing exclusively on children or adults. It typically includes routine preventive care along with access to restorative or cosmetic treatment when needed. The goal is to give families one consistent place to get care for most ages.
Q Can all ages visit a family dentist?
Family dentistry practices vary in the age ranges they treat. Some see patients starting in early childhood. Others, like Bickler Dentistry, begin seeing patients around age 12 and up. It's worth confirming with a specific practice which age ranges they treat before scheduling.
Q What services are included in family dentistry?
Family dentistry typically includes preventive care such as cleanings and exams, along with access to cosmetic, restorative, and implant treatments when needed. Many family dental practices also offer emergency care and oral surgery, giving households a single location for a wide range of dental needs.
Q Why should I choose a family dentist instead of separate providers?
A family dentist allows every member of your household to be seen at one location. This simplifies scheduling and keeps everyone's dental records and history in one place. It also means your family builds a relationship with a team that gets to know your specific needs and preferences over time.
Q Does family dentistry include cosmetic treatment?
Yes, many family dentistry practices offer cosmetic treatments like veneers, teeth whitening, and bonding along with routine preventive care. This allows family members to improve their smile with the same provider they already see for checkups.
Q Can a family dentist handle dental emergencies?
Most family dental practices are equipped to handle common dental emergencies, such as a broken tooth or sudden pain. Many also offer same-day appointments when possible. Having an established relationship with a family dentist often means faster access to care during an urgent situation.
Q Is sedation available for anxious family members?
Many family dentistry practices, including Bickler Dentistry, offer sedation options to help ease anxiety during treatment. This can make a significant difference for family members who feel nervous about dental visits, allowing them to get the care they need more comfortably.
Q How often should each family member visit the dentist?
Most patients should visit the dentist every six months for a routine cleaning and exam. Some individuals may need more frequent visits based on their specific oral health needs. A family dentist can determine the right schedule for each member of your household.
