General dentistry is the foundation of your oral care at Gause Dentistry. Before any cosmetic or restorative treatment is considered, Dr. Alex Gause focuses on the fundamentals—keeping your teeth and gums healthy through consistent, well-monitored care designed around adult patients.

What Is General Dentistry?
General dentistry covers the ongoing, preventive, and diagnostic care that keeps your mouth healthy over time. Each aspect of our general dentistry focuses on preventing oral health issues before they start or become serious.
General dentistry at Gause Dentistry includes:
The practice runs on a genuinely digital workflow—CBCT for detailed imaging, intraoral scanning instead of traditional impressions, digital radiography for lower-radiation X-rays, and laser dentistry and air abrasion for select procedures. Our technology is designed to improve the detection of issues and the quality of our treatments.
Benefits of General Dentistry at Gause Dentistry
Routine preventive care
Regular exams and cleanings are the single most effective way to avoid the need for more invasive (and more expensive) treatment down the road. Catching a small cavity, an early sign of gum disease, or small tooth damage before it worsens is almost always simpler, faster, and less costly than addressing it later.
Diagnostic technology that catches more
CBCT imaging and digital radiography give Dr. Gause a far more detailed view of your teeth, roots, and jawbone than traditional X-rays alone, allowing issues to be identified earlier and treatment plans to be built with precision.
Continuity with more advanced care
Because Dr. Gause also handles implants, cosmetic dentistry, and full mouth reconstruction, your general dentistry visits aren’t disconnected from more complex care you might need later. Any patterns your exam reveals—wear, bite issues, early gum recession—are tracked with an eye toward your long-term oral health.
Same-day availability when you need it
Dental issues don’t wait for a convenient time. Same-day appointments mean a chipped tooth, sudden pain, or lost filling can be addressed quickly rather than the issue lingering for days or weeks.
A comfortable, modern visit.
Digital scanning replaces the uncomfortable impression trays of the past, and our dental technology reduces wait times—and the anxiety—that can come with routine dental visits.
