ROLE OF FAMILY DENTIST AT REALTOOTH - Our commitment is to assist our patients preserving a life long dental and oral health functional as well as esthetics. Good old family dentistry traditions where each patient is attended by same dentist or dental team over a long period of time and receive regular checkups and tooth cleaning in combination with prophylactic measures seems to be most consistent way to get to the goal. 

Dental decay/wear or gum disease will always be present to some degree in adult mouth, and a family dentist has the unique ability to predict the rate of development that is likely to take place over time, and to intervene or repair before situation escalates. It is therefore essential that the same eyes follow a patient over time and the length of the intervals between regular checkups are established in accordance with each patients individual needs. Today's dentistry is fairly complex and you cannot be the best at everything, so it is a natural thing that the family dentist have some specialist competence also, but for other specialised treatment he has other competent professionals connected to his/her core team. Outsourcing is the modern term, but in our case it is not used in order to cut costs, but to let the best man do the job. Need for staying in touch-
