Keep your smile happy and healthy
General dentistry encompasses a wide range of dental services focused on maintaining your oral health and preventing dental issues. You can avoid potential complications, such as cavities and gum disease by prioritizing regular dental checkups and cleanings.
Preventative Dental Treatments
Preventative dental care is the cornerstone of our practice, ensuring you maintain a healthy smile. Whether you’re young or young at heart, our comprehensive dental care is tailored to meet every family member’s needs.
Comprehensive Dental Exams
Our comprehensive checkups go beyond the surface. We utilize digital X-rays, intraoral photos, and a 3D oral health scan to assess your dental health. Our approach lets us detect issues early on and create treatment plans tailored to your needs.
Preventative Teeth Cleanings
Regular dental cleanings are essential for keeping teeth and gums in optimal condition. Our gentle and effective preventative cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup, and our fluoride treatments provide an added layer of protection against cavities.
Deep Cleanings
For patients with signs of gum disease or more advanced plaque buildup, our deep cleaning and gum therapy services help restore your oral health. Our team offers scaling, root planing, and laser gum therapy to treat periodontal issues effectively.
Sealants
Looking for a pain-free way to prevent cavities? Our sealant treatments protect the biting surfaces of your teeth, reducing the risk of decay without any drilling involved.
Oral Cancer Screenings
Our comprehensive oral cancer screenings utilize advanced technology, including UV light detection with Oral ID, to identify suspicious spots in your mouth, tongue, and throat.
Removable Appliances
Whether you need to keep your teeth from grinding while you sleep or maintain your newly straightened smile, our practice offers a range of removable appliances, such as mouthguards and retainers, to protect your smile and keep it looking its best.

Why patients love
Family Dental Center
Selected 5-star reviews
“From the scheduling process all the way up until my appointment, the customer service at Family Dental Center has been warm, polite and exceptional. Dr. Patel was very nice and explained what I needed to do clearly and answered all my questions. I scheduled my next appt for the follow up procedure without any trouble. It was one of the best dental experiences I’ve had since moving to the state of Delaware 8 years ago.”
“I would recommend this place; the payment break down with the front desk was very straight forward and didn’t leave me guessing about what I would be charged. Also, the dental assistant explained everything in detail from the second I walked in and made sure I understood my options and what the next steps were. Also, there was no wait once I checked into the front desk. 10/10”

Frequently Asked Questions
You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers
Don’t see the answer you’re looking for?
Do you treat children?
Yes, at Family Dental Center, we welcome patients of all ages, including children. Our skilled team specializes in offering gentle and considerate dental services tailored to children’s needs. For more complex cases, we may make referrals to specialists who can address specific pediatric needs effectively.
Why do you recommend deep cleanings?
Deep cleanings help prevent heavy calculus buildup, bone loss, and inflamed gums. Unlike basic cleanings that focus on the surface level, deep cleanings address the areas underneath the gums, removing calculus and allowing your gums to breathe again. Deep cleanings help prevent tooth loss, heart disease, receding gums, and other serious dental issues.
Do I have to get X-rays?
Yes, getting an X-ray is essential for a comprehensive understanding of your dental health. Our X-ray machines use minimal radiation for your safety. Not only is it a state requirement, but X-rays enable our providers to detect issues between teeth and ensure no hidden problems exist. The good news is that Family Dental Center doesn’t bill out-of-pocket costs for X-rays.
I’m pregnant -- do I still need an X-ray?
Yes, dental X-rays are essential even during pregnancy. However, we will need clearance from your OBGYN before proceeding. Safety is our priority, and with proper clearance, we can ensure that your dental health is well taken care of during this special time.

Family Dental Center accepts a wide range of insurance plans to make dental care affordable and accessible. For quick confirmation, use our website’s insurance checker tool to see if your insurance is among our accepted providers.
