The basis of general dentistry is dental hygiene and preventative care. When you visit us for your regular teeth cleaning and oral health exam, you protect yourself against painful decay and disease.
Preventative Dental Care
What Does General Dentistry Involve?
DENTAL FILLINGS
Small cavities affect the majority of our patients, but we can painlessly reverse them with dental fillings. Our dental fillings are minimally invasive and tooth-colored for a subtle appearance. Your tooth fillings placement will only require a few minutes in our dentist’s office in Kelowna, but fillings will preserve your natural tooth from sensitivity and decay for many years afterward.
ORAL CANCER SCREENINGS
Early oral cancer detection is essential to successful cancer treatment. Dr. Malfair uses Velscope technology to identify abnormalities and lesions that may become dangerous to your health. This short, fast, and painless procedure could potentially save your life.
