Dental and Oral Disease in Hermitage Tennessee

Dr. Whitefield will most probably advise Tennessee residents on just how to prevent dental and oral diseases, through proper hygiene and regular professional dentist checkups for cleaning and evaluation - usually twice yearly. It is extremely important for patients to take their checkups seriously, as this will also aid in the prevention of serious dental and oral diseases.


The two most common dental and oral diseases are tooth decay and gum disease. Common treatments involve the restoration of teeth, extraction or surgical removal of teeth, scaling and root planning and root canal treatment. Conditions in the oral cavity may also be an indication of diseases such as osteoporosis, diabetes, or cancer. Studies have also shown that gum disease can be associated with an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease, and preterm birth.

Visit Dr. Whitefield at 4251 Lebanon Pike, Hermitage, TN 37076 or give him a call on 615-889-5545 and schedule your dental and oral appointment today!
