General Dentistry

General Dentistry Procedures

General dentistry can be a vague term. You might wonder what does general dentistry entail? What kinds of services are offered with general dentistry? Well, the answer is that general dentistry covers a broad list of services that are typically offered by a family dentist. A general dentist, or family dentist, can in a sense, be compared to a general practitioner, or family doctor.

How so? While general practitioners don’t clean teeth, they do offer a wide variety of services just like a general dentist. If something falls outside of his/her scope of practice, even in general dentistry, they can refer you to someone who has extensive training in that particular area. This way, you get care directed at a particular concern by someone who has a wealth of knowledge and can quickly address the issue.

At Lincoln Family Dentistry, we offer a wide variety of affordable services and all of those services come with education. We believe in education, so that you can make informed decisions about your oral health. In our article we’ll cover:

“General Dentistry Near Me” for the People

Here at Lincoln Family Dentistry, we consider ourselves the dentist for the people. We’re excellent at working with just about anyone, and we’re happy to add you to that list. Our team genuinely cares about your well-being. Even our patients who don’t like the dentist have found a home with us. Why? Because we look out for you. We’ll never lecture you, talk down to you, or make you feel ashamed, no matter how long it’s been since you’ve seen a dentist.

Many of our patients were previously too afraid to see a dentist regularly. Some of them didn’t take very good care of their teeth, others did but didn’t like the tools dentists used. We understand both of these mentalities. The fact is that dentist’s offices can be intimidating. Many of our dentists even felt this way too, and founded their careers off of trying to change this paradigm. Now, the same patients that were once too afraid to see us, are regularly visiting us. They’ve come a long way, and we’re happy to see their progress towards wellness. You, too, can feel good knowing that you’re taking care of yourself. Come in for a cleaning or cosmetic consultation, and we’ll be happy to help you feel welcome.

This gentle Lincoln, NE dentists says: “I saw a lot of different dental specialists when I was young. My orthodontist changed my life by giving me the smile I am remembered by today. I love people, art, and making an impact. Once I discovered the potential impact a confident smile can make in someone’s life, dentistry became the only career that would allow me to maximize my creative skills while fulfilling my drive for helping others. Dentistry is about so much more than teeth, and the world is finally starting to acknowledge this. I am so excited to incorporate my background in Nutrition Science and my passion for overall well-being to provide the next level of care for my patients.”
