Why is General Dentistry important?

You can think of general dentistry as an important part of your overall dental health. Corrective and restorative procedures are necessary to remove decay and restore your smile. Preventative treatment is necessary in stopping the onset of decay in order to maintain a smile that’s bright and beautiful. Each patient will receive different treatments according to their dental health and needs.

What procedures are involved in General Dentistry?

We offer most general dental procedures to help you achieve a lasting smile. To determine what type of procedure is needed, you’ll come in for a consultation and exam. Some of the most common procedures performed regarding general dentistry include:

  • Fillings
  • Fixed bridges and crowns

  • Root canals
  • Periodontal treatment
  • Cleanings and exams

What can you expect during a routine General Dentistry appointment?

To begin treatment, you’ll need to schedule an appointment to be seen by Dr. Andrew Turchin. He will conduct a visual exam as well as take x-rays to look at the underlying health of your teeth, bone, and gums. A cleaning will be done to remove buildup from the teeth before additional procedures can be performed. You will then be given a personalized treatment plan that helps to correct and restore your smile. Each patient will need varying work simply because no two smiles are alike. We work to provide you with the dental care that you need at a price that you are going to be able to afford when visiting our office.

This gentleman desired a brighter smile, but wanted a natural look to suit his face. New veneers were handcrafted to look completely natural, and his smile was designed to better support his face.

A long time Aspenite didn’t like her two front teeth. After proper analysis and a Smile Test DriveTM we determined it was a more complex problem than just two teeth. Her bite had destroyed her teeth and smile, and aged her face. So we fixed her bite and smile using our Ageless Smile algorithm, which turned back the clock.

This 40 something Aspen and Sydney resident presented looking for a better smile. Because after 2 rounds of Invisalign and plenty of whitening, he was still left wanting. With almost no preparation of his teeth we were able to add the length, prominence, broadness on sides and the shade his smile was wanting for resulting in a more youthful attractive smile and fuller lips. He is ecstatic about his new smile! The Ageless Smile Algorithm nailed it again.

This hospital exec traveled for a couple of hours in search of the smile of her dreams. Her lack of tooth display was due to a skeletal issue known as an impacted and retrognathic maxilla, which means her upper jaw was too far up and back causing her smile to show less tooth volume and less lip support than ideal. We designed a new smile to correct that deficiency by making her teeth longer and building them out for more tooth support. Now she shows a more attractive and youthful amount of tooth display that is in harmony with her lower lip. She loves her new smile which gives her renewed confidence every day.

Unhappy with the size of her smile and her local dentist’s attempt to bond a little more length, this Florida woman came to Aspen to receive The

Ageless SmileTM. Traditional dentistry would have referred her for Jaw Surgery in order to bring her upper jaw down and forward to show more teeth. Although this was discussed, the patient chose the non-surgical route which gave a near surgical result for her esthetics and bite. Tooth display at smile and at rest are some of the main determinants in guessing ones age. She now shows a more youthful amount of tooth, which takes years off of her look.

Our favorite Miami Housewives star, interior designer, and hotelier was just back in our office for his new smile. Exactly like the temporaries but the brighter shade he chose. In fact, this is our very brightest shade that he saw on his dear friend and fell in love with, and why he came to us to begin with. He has been looking for a decade for someone who could give him a super bright smile that still looked natural. It’s all in the natural tooth form, texture, and translucency. He loves his new smile and commented after each visit that he was amazed that he felt like he had no work done after each appointment as he had no pain or sensitivity. Another great Ageless Smile!
