What is a General Dentist
A general dentist is your primary care dental provider. This dentist diagnoses, treats, and manages your overall oral health care needs, including gum care, root canals, fillings, crowns, veneers, bridges, and preventive education. It takes between six and eight years to become a dentist. The exact route to becoming a dentist will depend on a few factors, such as whether you choose a specialization. Specializations like becoming an oral surgeon or periodontist will require additional training and education. General dentistry and family dentistry are very similar, but here are the primary differences. Family dentistry is concerned with addressing oral health at every stage of life, but particularly in kids and teenagers. Family dentists are quite similar to general dentists, but typically have more experience working with children. Some family dentists may even be qualified pediatricians.
