Key Points About General Dentistry

Prevent, Diagnose, Treat: General dentistry focuses on preventing, diagnosing, and treating common dental issues.

Treatments Offered: General dentists provide treatments like fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures, and tooth extractions.

The Importance of Dental Hygiene

Maintaining good dental hygiene is crucial for overall oral health. Brushing your teeth twice a day, along with flossing and regular dental check-ups, helps prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath. Dental hygiene practices remove plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that can build up on teeth and lead to cavities and gum inflammation. By taking care of your teeth and gums, you not only ensure a bright smile but also contribute to your overall well-being. Poor dental hygiene can also affect your general health, with links to conditions like heart disease and diabetes. Therefore, making dental hygiene a priority in your daily routine is essential for a healthy mouth and body.

Our General Dentistry Treatments:

Exams and Cleanings: Regular dental exams are crucial for detecting and preventing oral health problems. Our thorough exams include a review of your medical history, oral cancer screening, and an assessment of your teeth, gums, and bite. Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar build up, reducing your risk of cavities and gum disease.
Fluoride Treatments: Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and protects against decay. We offer fluoride treatments as a preventive measure, particularly for patients at higher risk of cavities.
Digital X-rays: Digital X-rays provide a clear view of your teeth and jawbone, allowing for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
Fillings: We use tooth-coloured composite fillings to repair cavities and restore the function and appearance of your teeth.
Dental Restorations: Our dentists utilise various restorative procedures to repair damaged teeth, including crowns, bridges, dentures, and implants. These treatments restore chewing function, improve your smile aesthetics, and enhance your overall oral health.
Sealants: Sealants are applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent cavities. This is a simple and effective preventive measure, especially for children.
Tobacco Cessation Counselling: We understand that quitting smoking can be challenging. We offer support and resources to help you kick the habit and improve your oral health.

Dear Dr Shabs. This is just a note to say thank you SO MUCH for everything you’ve done for me and my disasterous teeth! Ever since I smashed my front teeth in freshers week I felt like I’ve been in the best possible hands! However, I’ve just finished a teaching course and am going to go and teach English in Jordan in two weeks time and therefore have had to register somewhere else 🙁 Whenever I’m back living in Manchester again though, I’ll be back. Cheers again, Helen (the one who does Arabic)

Dear Shab and team. Just wanted to thank you and everyone at the clinic for being so wonderful! You’ve all been so flexible and patient with me and, as always, so professional. I wouldn’t ever go anywhere else! Thanks again for putting up with my random last minute appointments and Dubai stories. Hope you have an amazing Xmas + New Year.

Dear Shab, thank you very very much for your patience and kindness, to me, I was a wreck, I am very lucky to have the best dental team there is. Thank you. Best Regards

To Dr Jussab. Many many thanks for attending to my tooth last week. It is wonderful to be able to drink a cup of tea with no pain! Thank you also to Wendy and Molly. Teeth are so important and I tend to take mine for granted… until I get toothache… then, the dentist and his staff become the important people of my week. Sending Greetings and Best Wishes to all. Heartfelt thanks

Dr Shabir. Many thanks for all the excellent treatment I received, so patiently, from yourself over many weeks. I am delighted with the results and can now smile with confidence. Your staff were kind and so very helpful, please pass on my warmest thanks. My best wishes to you all.

FAQs

01 How often do I actually need a dental check-up?

Every six months is the standard advice — but it’s not one-size-fits-all. Low-risk patients with good oral hygiene may only need annual checks. Higher-risk patients — smokers, diabetics, those prone to decay — may need more frequent visits. Your dentist should be setting your recall interval based on your specific risk, not habit.

02What happens if I skip check-ups for a few years?

Problems that were cheap to fix become expensive. A small cavity becomes a root canal. Gum disease progresses silently. Oral cancer goes undetected longer. None of this is guaranteed — but the pattern is consistent. Dentistry is significantly cheaper when problems are caught early rather than when symptoms appear.

03Do I need X-rays every visit?

No — and you’re entitled to ask why they’re being taken. Bitewing X-rays every 12–24 months is typical for adults with no active decay. More frequent X-rays are appropriate if there’s ongoing concern. Radiation exposure from dental X-rays is low, but unnecessary imaging serves no one.

04Why do my gums bleed when I brush?

Usually gum disease — specifically gingivitis, the early stage. It’s caused by plaque buildup at the gumline and is reversible with improved cleaning. Bleeding isn’t normal and isn’t caused by brushing too hard, despite what many people assume. If it persists after two weeks of consistent flossing, get it checked.
