General dental care for West Palm Beach adults
Rudnick Dentistry begins with an exam, a conversation about your goals, and a plan shaped by your oral health. Preventive visits help the team spot changes and recommend care before a concern becomes harder to manage.Source: ADA — regular dental visits ↗

Exams and cleanings, tailored to you
Dr. Rudnick examines teeth, gums, and other oral tissues. Imaging is recommended when it helps answer a clinical question. Hygienists remove plaque and hardened deposits, and the team can discuss brushing, cleaning between teeth, and fluoride when appropriate.Source: MedlinePlus — dental exams and cleaning ↗

Review decay, gum health, wear, restorations, and any changes you have noticed. The team also looks for unusual oral changes that may need more evaluation.
Professional cleanings
Cleanings remove buildup that daily brushing and flossing cannot. Your recommended schedule depends on your needs, rather than one fixed interval for everyone.Source: MedlinePlus — dental exams and cleaning ↗
Gum care
Gum measurements and an exam guide treatment. Scaling and root planing may be recommended for periodontitis when deeper deposits are present.Source: ADA — scaling and root planing ↗
Treating a problem with the right level of care
When a tooth needs treatment, the team explains what they found and why a particular option fits. A separate service page offers more detail about each procedure.
Fillings, inlays & onlays
These options repair different amounts of decay or damage. The choice depends on the tooth, the size of the affected area, and the strength of remaining tooth structure.
Crowns & bridges
A crown can protect a damaged tooth; a bridge can replace a missing tooth. Dr. Rudnick discusses how each restoration may affect comfort, chewing, and upkeep.
Root canal therapy & extractions
When a tooth is infected, inflamed, or cannot be saved, an exam and appropriate imaging help the team explain treatment and follow up options.
Dental implants & dentures
Missing tooth options can be discussed as part of a longer term care plan. The practice evaluates your individual needs before recommending replacement treatment.

Comfort & protection
Sports mouth guards and nightguards serve different purposes. If you clench, grind, or have jaw pain, the team can assess what type of care is appropriate.

General dentistry FAQs for West Palm Beach
How often should I schedule a dental cleaning?
Your schedule depends on gum health, cavity risk, and dental history. Some patients are seen around every six months; others need more frequent visits. The team will recommend an interval after examining you.Source: ADA — visit frequency ↗
What happens during a general dental exam?
Dr. Rudnick checks your teeth, gums, and other oral tissues, reviews symptoms and history, and discusses any recommended imaging or follow up.
When is a filling different from an inlay or onlay?
A filling repairs a smaller area of damage. An inlay fits within a tooth’s cusps, while an onlay covers one or more cusps. The right option depends on the tooth and extent of damage.
Does every patient with bleeding gums need deep cleaning?
No. The team evaluates gum health and supporting tissues first. Scaling and root planing is recommended when findings support that treatment.
Can general dentistry help with a broken tooth or tooth pain?
Call the office promptly. The team can discuss your symptoms, check availability, and explain whether an urgent examination is needed.
What should West Palm Beach patients plan for?
