General dentistry is primarily focused on preventative and restorative dental services, while cosmetic dentistry is more concerned with the aesthetically-pleasing look of your teeth. If your teeth are discoloured, you would visit a cosmetic dentist for teeth whitening. If you are experiencing a toothache as a result of a cavity, you would visit a general dentist who may need to place a filling.
The most common procedures include fillings, dental crowns, tooth extractions, and dental implants. Thanks to local anaesthetics, the process of having your teeth looked after will cause minimal to no discomfort. Whatever your dental problem is, know that your general dentist has performed the procedure countless times.
