Our Comprehensive General Dentistry Services
- Routine Teeth Cleanings: Our hygienists use advanced tools to remove plaque, tartar, and stains—even the ones your toothbrush and floss can’t reach. Cleanings also leave your mouth feeling fresh and give us a chance to detect any issues early.
- Dental Exams: Every exam includes a detailed check of your teeth, gums, and mouth. We assess for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, bite issues, and even oral cancer. Our doctors are known for being thorough and attentive.
- 3D Digital X-Rays: With our state-of-the-art 3D imaging technology, we can get a full view of your oral structure. This allows for more accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment planning—without the discomfort of traditional X-rays.
- Fluoride Treatments: Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and helps prevent cavities. It’s especially important for children but also beneficial for adults. Our quick, painless fluoride applications offer lasting protection between visits.
- Dental Emergencies: Toothache? Broken crown? Knocked-out tooth? We’re here when you need us most. Call us right away and we’ll do everything we can to see you the same day and get you out of pain fast.
- Fillings: Cavities are no match for our high-quality, tooth-colored fillings. We restore your tooth’s function and appearance with durable materials that blend in naturally.
- Dental Crowns: A crown may be needed for a tooth that’s broken, decayed, or after a root canal. Our crowns are custom-made to fit perfectly and look just like your natural teeth.
- Extractions: While we always aim to save your natural teeth, sometimes an extraction is the healthiest choice. Our doctors make the process smooth, gentle, and stress-free.
- Root Canal Therapy: When infection reaches the nerve of a tooth, root canal therapy can save it. This treatment is often misunderstood—but thanks to modern techniques, it’s no more painful than getting a filling.

Why General Dentistry Matters
General dentistry isn’t just about reacting to dental problems—it’s about preventing them. Regular checkups, cleanings, and exams help catch issues early before they become painful, expensive, or more complex. At Mountain View Dental, we believe prevention is the best medicine, and we tailor every visit to ensure your oral health is on the right track.
Our goal is to provide everything you need under one roof. From regular cleanings to more involved procedures, our general dentistry services include:
A Family-Friendly Dental Office
We welcome every member of your family—from toddlers to grandparents. Our office is built around making everyone feel safe, comfortable, and respected. Whether it’s your child’s first visit or your fiftieth, we treat you like part of the Mountain View Dental family.
Our team is experienced in pediatric dentistry and knows how to make visits fun and anxiety-free for kids. For adults, we offer clear explanations, gentle hands, and respect for your time and budget.
Personalized Dental Care That Respects Your Time
Your time matters. We understand that you’re busy, whether you’re running between meetings, school pickups, or errands. That’s why we focus on being efficient without rushing your care. We’ll never keep you waiting unnecessarily, and we tailor your appointment to fit your schedule and needs.
More than that, we believe in making every minute you spend with us meaningful. We take time to explain what we’re doing and why. We answer your questions. And we listen—because you deserve a dental experience that’s not just productive but empowering.
When Should You See a General Dentist?
You don’t have to wait until something hurts to book an appointment. In fact, that’s the worst time to go! Preventive care is the best care, and it saves you time, money, and discomfort in the long run.
Here are a few key times to visit us:
- Every six months for routine checkups and cleanings
- When you experience tooth pain, sensitivity, or gum bleeding
- If you notice unusual spots or growths in your mouth
- After a dental injury, even if there’s no immediate pain
- For preventive advice on your child’s growing smile
Many dental problems don’t come with obvious symptoms—until they’re advanced. Catching them early means simpler treatment, better outcomes, and healthier smiles.
What to Expect During a Routine Visit
Your first visit—or next checkup—is designed to be thorough, stress-free, and customized to your needs. Here’s what a typical general dentistry appointment at Mountain View Dental looks like:
- Warm Welcome: Our front desk team greets you with a smile and gets you checked in quickly.
- Professional Cleaning: Our dental hygienists gently clean your teeth, removing plaque and polishing your enamel to a healthy shine.
- Digital X-Rays (if needed): These give us a behind-the-scenes look at your dental health.
- Comprehensive Exam: One of our dentists will perform a detailed evaluation of your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw.
- Personalized Plan: If any issues are found, we’ll go over your options and create a treatment plan that works with your timeline and budget.
