But you may not have known that you can get all of these services and more from a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifetime.dental\/our-services.html\">family dentist<\/a> &#8211; all under one roof:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Periodontal (Gum) Care \u2013<\/strong>Although a dentist may recommend a specialist for patients with severe gum disease, you can get great care for mild to moderate gum disease from the same dentist who looks after your teeth.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Children\u2019s Dentistry <\/strong>\u2013 Kid-friendly dental care includes services like fluoride treatments, sealants and athletic guards \u2013 all done in a friendly atmosphere to help children feel as comfortable as possible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dental Implants \u2013 <\/strong>If you\u2019re one of the millions of Americans that\u2019s experienced tooth loss and are considering dental implants, ask a family dentist about their training. All of them can restore a dental implant with a crown, bridge or denture, and some have additional training that allows them to perform the procedure from start to finish.<\/li>\n<li><strong>TMJ\/TMD<\/strong> \u2013 If you suffer from problems with your temporomandibular joint, you know how much it can impact your overall quality of life. Fortunately, you don\u2019t need to see a specialist for effective, non-surgical treatment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cosmetic Dentistry <\/strong>\u2013 Porcelain veneers, tooth-colored fillings and whitening are just some of the procedures you can have done to enhance your smile.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>What Should You Look For In a Family Dentist?<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re wondering if a family dentist is right for you, a great place to start is their website. Spend a little time looking at what they have to offer and see if they\u2019ve pursued advanced education in specialty areas such as dental implants, TMJ disorders, and cosmetic dentistry.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Also, the right technology can make your dental work faster, more comfortable and more effective, so check to see if a dentist has invested in modern advances such as digital X-rays, laser dentistry, and digital scanners.<\/p>\n<p>These days, everyone is looking for ways to save time and minimize hassle. Scheduling everyone in the family at the same dental office is one great way to do that!<\/p>\n<h2>About the Author<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifetime.dental\/meet-dr-michitti.html\">Dr. Michitti<\/a> is a family dentist in Agawam who truly enjoys working with patients of all ages.
