When should you see a general dentistry?

You should see a general dentist at least twice a year for preventive care. Schedule a visit sooner if you have tooth pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, bleeding gums, or notice any changes in your mouth. A general dentist is also your first stop before being referred to a specialist.

How often should I see a general dentist?
The American Dental Association recommends visiting a general dentist every six months for a checkup and cleaning. If you have gum disease, a history of cavities, or are managing a chronic condition like diabetes, your dentist may recommend more frequent visits — typically every 3–4 months.
What's the difference between a general dentist and a specialist?
General dentists provide comprehensive preventive and restorative care — cleanings, fillings, crowns, and basic extractions. Specialists (orthodontists, endodontists, periodontists, etc.) complete 2–3 additional years of training in a specific area. Your general dentist often coordinates your care and refers you to specialists when needed.
What should I expect at a first visit?
A first visit typically includes a review of your medical and dental history, X-rays (if you haven't had recent ones), a comprehensive oral exam checking for cavities, gum health, and oral cancer screening, and a professional cleaning. The dentist will discuss any findings and create a treatment plan if needed. Most first visits take about 60–90 minutes.
Do general dentists treat children?
Yes, most general dentists treat patients of all ages. They can handle children's cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants, and cavity fillings. However, if your child has significant dental anxiety, special needs, or complex developmental issues, your general dentist may refer you to a pediatric dentist who specializes in treating young patients.
Does insurance cover general dentistry?
Most dental insurance plans cover preventive care (cleanings, exams, X-rays) at 100%. Basic procedures like fillings are typically covered at 70–80%, and major procedures like crowns at 50%. Coverage varies by plan — Delta Dental, Cigna, Aetna, MetLife, and others each have different fee schedules. Always verify coverage with your specific plan before treatment.
What's a dental emergency I shouldn't ignore?
Seek immediate care for: a knocked-out adult tooth (best chance of saving it within 30 minutes), severe tooth pain with swelling (may indicate an abscess), uncontrolled bleeding after an extraction, or a broken jaw. For a chipped tooth without pain, you can usually wait for a regular appointment, but call your dentist for guidance.
