What is General Dentistry?
What is General Dentistry?
General Dentistry refers to a wide range of dental services that focus on maintaining your overall oral health. It is the first line of defense in detecting, preventing, and treating common dental issues like tooth decay, gum disease, bad breath, and more serious conditions that may require specialist attention if left untreated.
It includes:
• Dental Consultations and Diagnostics
• Teeth Cleaning and Oral Prophylaxis
• Fillings and Restorative Treatments
• Extractions (Tooth Removal)
• Night Guards and Mouth Guards
• Oral Health Education and Maintenance
At Affinity Dental Clinics, general dentistry is never generic. Our clinics are equipped with state-of-the-art technology, and every patient receives personalized care from dentists who take the time to listen, explain, and make you feel at ease.
Dental Consultations and Comprehensive Exams
Dental Consultations and Comprehensive Exams
Every treatment begins with a thorough dental consultation. Whether you’re coming in for a routine checkup or a specific concern, our dentists take a detailed medical and dental history, examine your teeth, gums, and bite, and review your digital X-rays if needed. Our goal is not just to treat symptoms, but to help you understand the root causes of your oral health issues.<br
We emphasize early diagnosis and conservative care—because the sooner we identify potential issues, the easier and more affordable they are to treat.
Professional Teeth Cleaning and Oral Prophylaxis
Professional Teeth Cleaning and Oral Prophylaxis
Regular teeth cleaning, or Oral Prophylaxis, is essential for keeping your teeth and gums healthy. Affinity Dental Clinics offers two types of cleanings: traditional cleaning and AIRFLOW® Prophylaxis, which uses advanced Swiss technology for a gentler, more comfortable clean.
Regardless of your preference, our hygienists are trained to perform professional cleanings that remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains. Regular cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath, and they leave your smile feeling fresh and polished.

We recommend cleanings every six months, though patients with gum problems or orthodontic appliances may need them more often.
Dental Fillings and Restorations
Dental Fillings and Restorations
Tooth decay remains one of the most common dental problems we see. Fortunately, it’s also one of the most treatable—especially with early detection.
We use tooth-colored composite fillings that blend beautifully with your natural teeth. These modern materials restore the strength and function of the tooth while maintaining a natural appearance. For more extensive damage, we may recommend inlays, onlays, or crowns—all expertly crafted in our in-house dental laboratory.
At Affinity, we don’t just fill cavities—we restore confidence, comfort, and function.
Tooth Extraction (When Necessary)
Tooth Extraction (When Necessary)
While our goal is always to save teeth whenever possible, there are times when extraction becomes necessary—due to decay, infection, trauma, or overcrowding. Our dentists perform simple tooth extractions using minimally invasive techniques designed to reduce discomfort and promote fast healing.
For nervous or anxious patients, Twilight Sedation is available, administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist to ensure a calm, stress-free experience.
If you require the removal of wisdom teeth, impacted teeth, or supernumerary teeth, we also offer surgical extractions as part of our Oral Surgery Services.
Mouth Guards and Night Guards
Mouth Guards and Night Guards
Many people don’t realize how much stress they place on their teeth during sleep or sports. We offer custom-made night guards for patients who grind their teeth (bruxism) and mouth guards for those who play contact sports. These devices are fabricated in our in-house lab for optimal fit and comfort.
Using a guard not only protects your teeth—it can also relieve jaw pain, reduce headaches, and improve sleep quality.
Pediatric-Friendly Dentistry
Pediatric-Friendly Dentistry
Our clinics welcome children as young as one year old. We believe that positive dental experiences early in life foster lifelong oral health. Pediatric dentistry is not just about treating baby teeth—it’s about helping children build trust, confidence, and healthy habits that will last a lifetime.
Our pediatric-friendly general dentistry services include:
• Age-One Dental Visits – Early checkups to monitor growth and spot potential issues before they become problems.
• Sealants – Protective coatings on molars to prevent cavities in hard-to-reach areas.
•Fluoride Applications – Gentle strengthening treatments to protect developing teeth from decay.
• Fillings for Baby Teeth – Quick, minimally invasive solutions to stop decay and preserve natural teeth.
• Gentle Extractions – Safe, compassionate removal of baby teeth when necessary to guide proper development.
• Preventive Guidance for Parents – Practical tips on brushing, flossing, nutrition, and managing oral habits (like thumb-sucking or pacifier use).
Our BGC High Street, Alabang, and Cebu branches even feature child-friendly suites with calming colors, engaging décor, and a welcoming environment designed to help children feel secure during their visit. Every consultation is tailored to a child’s age and comfort level—because we know that a child’s first dental memories can shape their attitude toward dentistry for years to come.
