Family Dentistry
Springfield, Holyoke, Longmeadow, and Wilbraham, MA Dentist
Family dentists provide the same dental care as a general dentist. The difference between the two is that family dentists are trained and experienced in meeting the dental needs of a wide range of patients, from young children to elderly adults. At Baystate Dental, we have specially-trained family dentists to meet your family’s ever-changing dental needs.
Benefits of a Family Dentist
Family dentists can become an extension of your own family. At Baystate Dental, we thoroughly enjoy getting to know our patients and love to watch their families grow. We find it especially enjoyable to watch as children change into adults. Families who have been with our practice for years also enjoy the comforts of our office, the camaraderie with our staff and the level of professionalism we extend to every member of the family. Some even look forward to their dental visits.
Many of the busy families who make Baystate Dental their dentistry home schedule their entire family for dental check-ups on the same day. This allows the families to stay on top of their dental health and makes it easy to remember that they are due for a check-up. We recommend that every family member visit our office twice each year for professional teeth cleanings. Daily dental hygiene combined with regular check-ups and professional cleaning is the way to prevent gum disease.
Family Dentistry Procedures
The preservation of your natural teeth is the number one goal of family dentistry. Keeping your gums healthy is part of that.
