General Dentistry in Orlando, FL

For most patients, a checkup and cleaning every six months is the standard recommendation. Twice-yearly visits allow Dr. Lee to monitor your oral health over time, catch early-stage issues like cavities and gum disease before they progress, and keep your teeth professionally clean in areas that brushing and flossing alone can't fully reach.

A typical visit at Elegantly Dental includes a comprehensive exam of your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw, digital X-rays as needed to identify issues not visible to the naked eye and a professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar buildup. If anything requires attention — a cavity, signs of gum disease, early wear from grinding, we'll discuss your options before you leave so you always have a clear picture of where your oral health stands.

If the dentist identifies a concern, whether it's a cavity, early gum disease, a cracked tooth, or something else, you'll receive a clear explanation of what was found and what your treatment options are, along with any associated costs, before anything is scheduled. Nothing is done without your knowledge and consent. Our goal is to keep you informed so you can make confident decisions about your care on your own timeline.

A general dentist is your primary dental care provider, the one who handles the full range of everyday oral health needs, from cleanings and fillings to extractions and gum disease treatment. Specialists, such as periodontists, orthodontists, and oral surgeons, focus exclusively on a specific area of dentistry and typically see patients on referral for more complex cases.

Most dental insurance plans cover preventive general dentistry including exams, standard X-rays, and routine cleanings at 100% or with minimal out-of-pocket cost, typically for two visits per year. Treatment services like fillings, extractions, and periodontal therapy are usually covered at a partial percentage depending on your plan. Elegantly Dental accepts a range of insurance plans and is happy to verify your benefits before your appointment so you know exactly what to expect before you sit down in the chair.
