General dentistry is the foundation of every successful treatment plan. Dr. Advani and our clinical team provide teeth cleanings, exams, fillings, dental X-rays, fluoride treatments, and more, and we always recommend only the treatments that will truly benefit your smile.

At each routine visit, we will:

  • Examine your teeth and screen for signs of oral cancer
  • Take updated X-rays as needed to find cavities and check tooth position
  • Remove plaque and tartar with a thorough professional cleaning
  • Check for gum disease, loose teeth, or infection
  • Polish your teeth so they look and feel their best

Why It Matters

Prevention costs less and hurts less

Preventive care is simpler, less expensive, and more comfortable than restorative treatment. Here is how we partner with you.

STEP 01

Care at home

Brush twice a day for two minutes, floss nightly, drink plenty of water, and limit sugary drinks.

STEP 02

Visit every six months

Regular exams and cleanings remove buildup that brushing alone can’t reach.

STEP 03

Catch issues early

X-rays and screenings find small problems before they become painful or costly.

STEP 04

Treat with care

If you need treatment, we explain your options clearly so you can decide with confidence.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Call Now (847) 472-0236
How often should I schedule a dental checkup?

Most patients should visit every six months for an exam and professional cleaning. Regular visits help us catch problems early, and we may recommend a different schedule based on your needs.

Are dental X-rays part of general dentistry?

Yes. We take updated X-rays when needed to detect hidden decay and infections, check the position of your teeth, and plan treatment accurately.

Can a routine visit detect oral cancer early?

Every exam includes an oral cancer screening. Screenings are quick and non-invasive, and early detection improves treatment outcomes.

Can gum disease be reversed?

Often, yes, if we catch it early. In its earliest stage, gingivitis, gum disease can usually be reversed with a thorough professional cleaning and better home care. Watch for:

  • Bleeding gums when brushing or flossing
  • Red, swollen, or irritated gums
  • Bad breath that won’t go away

Advanced gum disease (periodontitis) can’t be cured, but we can manage it with deep cleanings and more frequent visits.

Do you see patients of all ages?

Absolutely. Our dentists care for every member of your family, from babies and toddlers to seniors, so everyone can be seen in one convenient location.
