What is Family Dentistry?

As its name suggests, family dentistry involves dental treatment for the whole family. At The Ricco Dental Group, we have the tools and the skills to provide dental services to patients of all ages, including children, teens, and adults. Our general dentistry services and beyond can be adapted based on the patient’s needs.

Benefits of Family Dentistry

Family dentistry comes with many benefits and can positively impact your life - and the life of your children. Here’s how:

Convenience
- Life can get very busy, especially when you have a large family. Having appointments all over NY at various times on different days can be overwhelming and lead to scheduling conflicts. This can lead to missed or canceled routine dental care appointments and negatively impact oral health. Family dentistry allows you to schedule your entire family for dental visits - at the same location!

Build a Bond
- We want to be the dental office you want to come to. And as we get to know your family - and you get to know ours - we can make that happen. More importantly, this can set a solid foundation for your child’s future oral health.

Many Services, One Dentist
- A family dentist offers all types of dental services, meaning you can get nearly every dental procedure taken care of in that office - without needing to schedule elsewhere or drive all over town.

Set a Good Example
- Since everyone in the family can see the same dentist, this is a great opportunity for the adults and older siblings to set an example for the younger ones - teaching the importance of caring for their teeth.

Dental History
- All your dental records - for you and your family - can be kept in one spot so that your dental team can understand your history and make the best dental decisions imaginable.

FAQs

Are all general dentists family dentists?

A general dentist may not always treat patients of all ages. However, a family dentist provides general dentistry services to kids and adults alike.

Should kids see a family dentist instead of a pediatric dentist?

A family dentist allows kids to grow up developing a rapport and relationship with the same dental team. Not only are they able to get dental treatment catered to them as young kids, but as they grow, they can continue receiving treatment. It is convenient, reduces the need for referrals or changing dentists, and helps them maintain a high level of oral health.

How often should routine dental visits for the family be?

Routine dental visits may vary based on your dental needs. Ideally, these visits should be every six (6) months for a professional cleaning and dental examination. This is a great way to maintain good oral health as well as address any dental issues as they may arise.
