Berks County, Reading and Wyomissing, Pennsylvania

At Dr. Schwartz's Wyomissing, Pennsylvania dental practice, you will be given individual attention and care every time you come to see us. Our Family and Cosmetic Dentistry practice focuses on the dental treatments designed to best suit your personal needs.

Dentistry encompasses many different areas of surgical and nonsurgical procedures that relate to the mouth. It also involves the study of conditions, disorders and diseases relating to the mouth, jaw and face (maxillofacial). The procedures include:

Evaluation
Diagnosis
Prevention
Treatment

Dentistry in General
The most common dental procedures performed in the field of dentistry involve the treatment and surgery of decayed and decaying teeth. Fillings, crowns, bonding, tooth removal and bridge work are all examples of methods Dr. Schwartz may use to repair and maintain your natural teeth.

More specialized dental care may involve maxillofacial treatments and surgeries. Through the use of technological advancements, Dr. Schwartz can evaluate, diagnose and treat symptoms of malocclusion and TMD in order to alleviate constant sources of oral and facial pain you may be suffering from.

All dentists must accomplish a certain level of dental skills to be able to graduate from dental school and earn their license to practice general dentistry. The various dentistry disciplines include routine, periodontal, endodontic, restorative, prosthetic, exodontic and general examinations. Many practitioners of general dentistry are not comfortable with placing dental implants, removing wisdom teeth, or treating complex cases.

Preventative Dentistry
Preventive dentistry should be taught and performed in conjunction with repair and restoration. The more educated a person is in preventive oral care, the fewer treatments for dental issues they will need in the future.

Dentists and hygienists teach people how to properly care for their own teeth between routine dental visits. The most important practices include:

Regular tooth brushing (twice per day at least)
Regular flossing (at least once per day)
The use of fluoride (preferably contained in a toothpaste)

Dr. David A. Schwartz is an educated and highly skilled dental professional who places the time with and care of his guests above all else.
