Dr. Alexander Tolstunov, DDS

General dentistry is as essential to your smile as brushing and flossing your teeth. For example, checkups and cleanings are necessary to evade oral health issues such as tooth decay and periodontitis. At our Clifton, NJ dental office, Dr. Tolstunov and our team offer a variety of general dentistry treatments to help your family enjoy a lifetime of beautiful, healthy smiles.

For your smile as well as your physical well-being, prevention is the best medicine. Therefore, the primary focus of exceptional dental care is preventing issues from developing in the first place. Besides brushing and flossing your teeth every day, professional dental cleanings and check-ups help stop the development of bacteria-rich plaque. Other treatments, such as root canals, fillings, crown and bridges, wisdom teeth extractions, etc., can also help you manage existing issues before they grow worse.

At your general dentistry appointment, your dentist will thoroughly inspect your teeth and oral tissues for signs of trouble. If any are present, then he or she will recommend an appropriate course of treatment to stop the issue from growing worse. However, caring for your smile will still rely on ongoing general dental care.

By emphasizing the value of prevention, preventative dentistry is essential to enjoying a lifetime of healthy smiles. To schedule your next visit, call Dr. Tolstunov’s dental office in Clifton, NJ today at (973) 478-1807.
