General dentistry is the prevention, evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions affecting the mouth, its various structures, and the surrounding regions.

General dentists can also perform restorative treatments, such as fillings or crowns, when teeth have become decayed or damaged. At Fedorciw, Massoumi, & Kolbig, we are dedicated to keeping your teeth healthy and offering a variety of restoration methods when that is not the case.
