Enhance Your Oral Health With General Dental Care
General dentistry includes a wide array of services. These treatments share a common goal of protecting your teeth and gums from disease and damage. Visiting our practice for regular checkups every six months will help you avoid dental problems that harm your smile. Plus, as our patient, you’ll find that we perform most of our procedures in-house.
Your dentists use advanced technology to streamline your appointments. Digital X-rays, 3-D scanners, and our CEREC machine for same-day restorations also ensure you receive the best results from treatment.
Your general dental care includes:
- Cleanings and Exams – Your hygienist will clean your teeth, getting rid of any plaque and tartar build-up. Our ultrasonic equipment is thorough yet gentle. Our team will also examine your mouth for signs of cavities, oral cancer, and gum disease.
- Gum Disease Treatment – If you show signs of a gum infection, your dentist can treat the disease with numerous treatment options. You may receive a deep cleaning procedure which includes scaling and root planing. It may be combined with other treatments, such as antibacterial irrigation or topical antibiotics.
- Mouthguards – Your dentist can give you a custom oral appliance that will fit you perfectly. It’s ideal to stop teeth grinding or prevent sports injuries. Our guards will last longer than anything you find in the store or purchase online.
- Sleep Apnea Appliances – If you show signs of sleep apnea, your dentist can arrange a sleep test. Once this condition has been confirmed, you can get a customized appliance that keeps your airways open while you sleep.
In addition, if you are dealing with a dental emergency, our team can help. Your dentist can see you on the same day whenever possible, and even after hours if you need immediate urgent care. There’s no need to worry or feel anxious.
Discuss Your Smile Goals During Your Visit
Your checkup is a fantastic time to bring up any goals you have for your smile. You may consider:
- Straightening Your Teeth – If you have misaligned teeth, you can begin your journey to a straighter smile with Invisalign.
- Brightening Your Smile – Eliminate stains with teeth whitening treatments. You can also opt for veneers or bonding for especially stubborn stains.
- Eliminating Imperfections – Get rid of chips, cracks, small gaps, and slightly overlapping teeth with veneers or bonding.
Call 704-246-5346 for general dentistry in Charlotte. You can also schedule online.

Dr. Irvine fixed a busted crown for me today and did her usual excellent job, i.e. no pain, well-explained, reasonable terms, with help from her courteous and always welcoming team (today it was Marciola; great job!). My wife and I feel lucky to have Dr. Irvine’s group available to us. Dr. Moran has to be one the best dentists in the area. She’s thorough, knowledgeable, technically savvy and friendly. My wife and I have relied on her for some 15 years now. She and Dr. Irvine (also very talented) have built a solid, customer-focused team. I would definitely recommend either dentist for your personal care.

I’ve been coming here for years and I have failed to post a review. If you are looking for a great dentist with hospitality, a smile and a place that cares about you rather than your money than this is it. Dr. Tori Irvine is the absolute best that I’ve ever experienced in Charlotte. Sarah the dental hygienist goes above and beyond every time she cleans my teeth. We have a great communication together and I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Dr. Tori Irvine is an excellent professional dentist as well as she is very communicative and enjoys her clients. She will discuss your dental plan in detail so you understand the priorities on what should be done and when. I had gone to her new office quite awhile after she left my previous dental center. I now needed crown work for a broken tooth and some other dental work. My visit was justified and I still prefer only her to plan for and provide the care of my teeth. Her new office and her staff are just as professional and also provided excellent service.

2025 update: Hygienist Emily performed a thorough cleaning, and I truly enjoyed interacting with her, as well as doctors Huh and Scott. 2024- Today, a beautiful in-house created porcelain crown was placed at the same visit as my tooth prep. Dr. Patel and assistant Sam couldn’t have been more kind and attentive!! I was also VERY comfortable with the neck pillow they gave to me. I am grateful to the entire Providence Dentistry staff. The front desk staff are also wonderful. Jan 2026: Dr. Huh is a highly skilled doctor! He is on the ball. I am so lucky to have him here at Providence Dentistry.

Visited just a few days ago to launch an Implant, and benefitted from a concise, yet thorough, explanation of what the process involves from Dr. Irvine’s personable and clearly competent Assistant, Jackie. I am impressed by the innovative utilization of technology and engineering in the preparation for, construction of and manner of firmly securing the implant. The amount of thought, time and planning involved in this important procedure, plus the obvious skill and caring of Dr. Irvine and her Team have, once again, occasioned my “Thank You” to the source of my initial referral to the practice!

Common Questions About General Dentistry
What is general dentistry?
Maintaining a beautiful smile and optimal oral health is the primary goal of general dentistry. We offer several services to achieve this, including dental cleanings and exams, gum disease treatment, preventive treatments like fluoride application and dental sealants, and custom-made mouthguards for athletes or teeth grinders. Regular dental care is crucial in preserving the health and beauty of your smile.
Why should I go to a general dentist?
General dentistry focuses on preventive care designed to keep your smile as healthy as possible by stopping issues like cavities and gum disease. So if you want your smile to look and feel good, general dentistry is essential. Regular exams and cleanings are the cornerstone of preventive care. They allow our team to find potential problems in their earliest stages when they are easiest to treat.
What is the difference between a general dentist and a specialist?
A general dentist has completed four years of dental school in addition to their undergraduate work. After dental school, a dental specialist has gone on to complete additional training in a specific area such as periodontics, endodontics, orthodontics, or another specialty. Unless you need the services of a specialist for a particular problem, a general dentist is the best choice for routine dental care.
