General Dentistry

Dr. Suman Vidyarthi know that our busy patients may find it difficult to carve time out of their schedule for dental appointments. You will be happy to know that at Renaissance Family Dentistry, we make it convenient for patients of all ages to receive the quality dental care they need in one comfortable, convenient location.

General dentistry at our Durham dental office encompasses all the services needed to prevent oral health problems from developing in the first place and to treat them if they do arise. The more we learn about the connection between your dental and overall health and well-being, the more critical it becomes to maintain excellent oral health.

The Key to a Healthy Smile Is Prevention

Achieving optimal oral health starts with preventive dentistry at our Durham dental office. Comprehensive exams and teeth cleanings every six months allow Dr. Suman monitor your oral health on a consistent, ongoing basis. Taking steps to prevent cavities today can spare you the discomfort of toothaches later and also save on dental costs for your family.

When we see you every six months, our Durham dentists can identify issues like gingivitis and tooth decay when they are small and easy to resolve. Combined with conscientious brushing and flossing at home, preventive dentistry is the key to maintaining happy and healthy smiles for your family.

Dentistry to Restore Your Oral Health

General dentistry is about much more than dental exams and cleanings, however! Not developing problems in the first place is optimal, but if you have cavities, gum disease, or broken or missing teeth, Dr. Suman offers the following services to resolve them and many others:

  • Tooth-colored fillings
  • Periodontal treatment
  • Crowns and bridges
  • Dental implant restoration
  • Tooth extractions
  • Emergency dentistry

With every service we provide at Renaissance Family Dentistry, we ensure that you are part of the process and have the information you need to make confident decisions about your family’s oral health.

Our state-of-the-art digital x-rays and intraoral cameras make you an active participant in your dental care. Together, we can identify problems, explore your treatment options, and come up with a treatment plan to get your oral health back on track.

We also offer emergency dentistry for our Durham patients who have a sudden issue that can’t wait. Call us with your dental emergency—even if you are not a current patient of ours. We will either see you the same day or the next business day to relieve your pain and make sure you’re comfortable until we can schedule you for treatment.

I am so grateful I found this practice years ago

I greatly appreciate the detailed feedback from Dr. Sumani about the condition of my teeth and future plans for treatment and what I can do at home. He includes me as a partner, not just as a patient waiting for his decisions. He, and all his staff are considerate of my comfort levels. They even provide blankets if I feel chilly. My recent cleaning was one of the most relaxed ones I ever had. Ashley was gentle, calm and attentive to details.

I am so grateful I found this practice years ago, and at age 70, I feel confident we will do all possible to care for my teeth and gums for the rest of my life. Thank you to all of you!

Frequently Asked Questions

We choose tooth-colored composite resin as the material for fillings because of its versatility and natural appearance. For these reasons, the tooth-colored filling material is also perfect for bonding, a cosmetic dental procedure that corrects minor smile flaws.

We exclusively use tooth-colored composite fillings at our office because they offer several advantages over older fillings. First, modern composite fillings are much more durable than “white” fillings made decades ago, so they withstand more wear and tear. Also, when placing a filling, we don’t need to compromise a lot of healthy tooth structure for a durable repair as we would with a silver filling.

Dr. Suman will carefully custom shade your filling match the white shade of your teeth. We take great pride in designing restorations that look so natural that no one will guess you have had any dental work done. Once your composite filling is in place, even you won't be able to detect the spot where your tooth meets the repair.
