General dentistry services in Riverview, FL
General Dentistry
Caring for your oral health starts by finding a compassionate and experienced dentist. Dr. Janis Milne, Dr. Rosalia Kickish, and the dental team at Inspiration Dental in Riverview, FL, offer a full range of general dentistry services using state-of-the-art technology to provide gentle, restorative care and prevent issues before they begin.
Routine hygiene offers the best defense for your teeth
Every day brushing and flossing can prevent bacteria buildup from causing gum disease and tooth decay, but home care is only part of the solution. Your routine dental visit allows our team of hygienists to clean your teeth and remove plaque and tartar buildup to keep tooth decay at bay.
Your dentist will also evaluate your teeth, gums, and jaw to screen for health issues using dental X-rays and a physical exam. Many problems with your mouth are easily reversible if they are caught early. Our team can help reduce your risk for developing oral health issues by educating you on ways to improve your home care and address bite alignment and tooth placement with orthodontics.
Restoring your oral health
If you’re diagnosed with tooth decay or gum disease, your dentist will form a treatment plan to remove disease and strengthen your teeth and gums. Inspiration Dental has invested in laser technology to improve patient comfort and allow us to treat periodontal disease and TMJ issues right in our office without a referral to an outside specialist. This technology will minimize pain and bleeding from procedures that address infection and shorten the recovery time for extractions and other advanced procedures.
While we always strive to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible, you may need to have a tooth extracted to protect your smile in some cases. Our dentists will work with you to make the process painless and help you choose the best replacement option. We offer dental implants, dentures, and bridges, and we can walk you through the best choice for your situation.

How often should I schedule a dental check-up?
Visiting the dentist every six months is recommended for routine exams and cleanings. These visits allow your dentist to track changes in your oral health, remove plaque and tartar buildup, and address small issues before they become major problems. Patients with ongoing concerns like gum disease or a history of decay may be advised to schedule more frequent visits. A thorough examination will help determine this.
What are the benefits of routine dental cleanings?
Routine cleanings are essential for maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Professional cleanings remove plaque and hardened tartar that can lead to cavities and gum disease. They also help reduce bad breath and support overall health. At Inspiration Dental, cleanings are paired with thorough check-ups to catch any signs of trouble early, ensuring a healthy, confident smile.
What should I expect during a general dentistry appointment?
A general dentistry appointment typically includes a full exam, digital X-rays if needed, and a thorough cleaning by a dental hygienist. The dentist will evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw, discuss any concerns, and recommend treatments if necessary. Patients are also encouraged to ask questions and receive personalized advice for at-home care and prevention strategies.
How does Inspiration Dental handle tooth extractions and replacements?
While the team aims to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible, some situations require extractions due to damage, decay, or infection. Inspiration Dental makes these procedures comfortable and stress-free. After extraction, they’ll discuss replacement options such as dental implants, bridges, or dentures to restore your smile’s appearance and function.
