General Dentistry

Ginger Scoggins, D.D.S. offers a comprehensive range of dental services for everyone in the family. Giving everyone a pleasant and comfortable experience at the dentist, Dr. Scoggins excels at pediatric, general, and cosmetic dentistry. Everyone you meet at our office, from the receptionist to the hygienist to the dentist herself, is here to make you feel comfortable. We offer:


Routine Dental Cleanings
Scheduling regular dental cleanings is a great way to keep your teeth healthy - and keeping your teeth healthy plays a key role in your general health. At your routine cleaning appointment, your friendly hygienist will evaluate your oral and gum health, rid your teeth of plaque and tartar, and give you tips on how you can keep your teeth as healthy as possible. We’ll also take care of any necessary X-rays during your cleaning appointment.


Fillings
Cavities are the most common dental problem we see in the office. We know very few people look forward to the process of a filling, so we work hard to make the process as painless and quick as possible. We offer composite fillings, which match the color of your natural teeth and leave your smile unaffected.


Crowns and Bridges
Sometimes, a filling isn’t a sufficient solution for a severely-damaged tooth - or sometimes a root canal has taken place and a crown is necessary to prevent tooth breakage. Bridges are three crowns in a row, and they’re attached to the neighboring teeth. Crowns and bridges are also beneficial when it comes to maintaining a functional bite. Our bridges and crowns are made of the highest-quality material, and they are made to blend in seamlessly with the rest of your teeth.


Dentures and Partials
We find that patients are often apprehensive about the process of being fitted for partial or full dentures. Since the process involves multiple steps, Dr. Scoggins and her team will be there to walk you through everything, answer all your questions, and help you feel comfortable and confident about wearing and maintaining your new dentures. You’ll be surprised how much your everyday life will be improved with your top-quality dentures!


Nightguards
When you have bruxism (teeth grinding) or you clench your teeth, damage can occur to the teeth, tissue, and jaw muscles. We’ll get you fitted for a custom nightguard, which is an easy and effective way to prevent damage to your teeth.


Teeth Whitening
Teeth bleaching is an excellent way to enhance your smile and boost your confidence. Our in-office teeth whitening procedures are a fine option for patients with discolored teeth, whether the problem is caused by staining, aging, or chemical damage. Best of all, the process only takes 20 minutes!


Deep Cleanings
Periodontitis is an infection that can worsen and cause a great deal of damage if it isn’t caught early and treated. The best way to treat this condition is with a deep cleaning, where each quadrant of the mouth will be deep-cleaned under local anesthetic to root plane and de-scale. We make this important process as painless and comfortable as possible.


Emergency Dental Care
When you’re facing a dental emergency, time is of the essence. After all, nobody wants to be in pain for longer than necessary. Our office will do our very best to accommodate you as quickly as possible, because we want every patient to be happy, comfortable, and pain-free!
