Plunkett & Dr. Janice Chaw to keep our patients teeth and gums in good health. By focusing on preventative care, we can help our patients live a full life.

What is General Dentist?

Many people are unsure about the services that a general dentist provides. While the term “general” is often describes people that provide only the basics, the same cannot be said about our dental office. The team at Plunkett & Chaw Dental provide a wide variety of services for patients throughout the Dunwoody area. We start with preventative care through education, teeth cleanings, and dental exams. We work to keep our patients’ teeth and gums healthy and in good condition. Without preventative health care and regular teeth cleanings, infections can develop and spread; eventually creating bone loss in both the teeth and the jawbone, which can lead to teeth falling out. With the majority of adults suffering from some form of tooth loss, preventative health care is not an option but a necessity.

Additionally, we focus on restorative dentistry. When a patient injures their tooth, we will work to correct it in a way that appears completely natural and makes it possible to eat, speak, and behave normally. This is incredibly important for the millions of adults that injure their teeth every year while playing sports, getting into a car wreck, or injuring their teeth at work. By focusing on restorations, the team at Plunkett & Chaw Dental make it possible for patients to keep their natural teeth for as long as possible.

If a patient loses their tooth, we can also replace it using a variety of modern dental procedures. Gone are the days where a lost tooth could not be replaced. Now there are multiple options for doing so and we can accommodate a variety of patient requests in our general dentistry office. This makes it possible for adults of all ages to maintain the functionality that can only come from having a full set of teeth.

To learn more about what options are available for restoring or replacing your teeth, call 770-452-0222 to schedule your appointment. We will conduct a thorough exam and make recommendations for what can be done to restore the full functionality and appearance of your smile.
