General dentistry is an area of practice in which the primary focus is on prevention and restoration.
Preventive dental services such as x-rays and routine checkups and cleanings help us stop the disease before it can progress. Prevention does not end in the dental office. During routine visits, Dr. Frey or your hygienist may discuss strategies you can implement at home to address your particular oral health needs.
Restorative dental services become necessary when a problem is identified. Common dental problems like cavities and gum disease are treated as conservatively as possible. This may involve a tooth-colored filling, crown, or deep cleaning. Early treatment for dental problems is necessary to avoid pain, stress, and more extensive treatment.
General dentistry also contributes to overall health. What happens in the mouth affects what happens in the body. Patients with certain health conditions, such as diabetes, need an attentive dentist who is aware of their increased risk for oral infection as well as the contribution oral health has on general health.
At his Beverly Hills dental practice, Dr. David S. Frey and his professional staff are dedicated to providing you with the finest and most personalized dental care available. We place a strong emphasis on prevention and education. Your questions are invited and encouraged. Our initial in-depth exam is the first step toward your perfect smile and long-term proper dental care. General dentistry techniques provide the foundation for a healthy smile and make cosmetic procedures possible. We will discuss with you any dental problems that our exam reveals, and advise you of your available treatment options.

The teeth at the back of the mouth have deep grooves and crevices. Dental sealants are a type of preventive service that blocks food particles and bacteria from attaching to the surface of these teeth. Sealants are a liquid resin material that seeps into crevices on chewing surfaces. The light hardens the resin and holds it in place.
Dental sealants are ideal for patients who are especially prone to cavities. Young children who still have baby teeth are excellent candidates, as are older children and teens who are still perfecting their oral health practice. Adults who are prone to cavities can also receive dental sealants. These protective barriers can last up to 10 years.
With such a wide variety of toothpaste products available today it can be difficult to choose which is right for you. Generally, patients without veneers or crowns on front teeth can use any toothpaste that is approved by the American Dental Association. Approval is indicated on the product label.
Whitening toothpaste may contain tiny abrasive particles and may not be appropriate for people with veneers, bonding, or crowns. In such instances, a sensitive-teeth toothpaste may be more suitable.
If you aren’t sure which toothpaste is best for your unique needs, talk to your dentist or hygienist during your next checkup and cleaning.
