The care that keeps your smile healthy
Maybe you're due for a cleaning, or a tooth has started to feel sensitive when you drink something cold. Our general dentists in Milford and Henniker handle both, along with the checkups and fillings that keep small problems from turning into bigger ones.
As your Milford general dentist, we look past cavities to your gums, your bite, and signs in your mouth that can point to changes in your overall health. Before we start any treatment, we get to know you: your health history and what you'd like from your visits.
What happens at your checkup
A checkup with your Milford general dentist or our Henniker team follows five steps.

- 03
We take digital X-rays and look at them with you on screen.

Your dentist examines your teeth, gums, and bite.
- 05
We talk through what we found and agree on next steps before any treatment starts.
What general dentistry covers
Our general dentistry team in Milford and Henniker handles the routine and restorative work that keeps your teeth healthy and strong, all under one roof.
Checkups, cleanings, fillings, and our comfort menu are available at both offices. Same-day crowns are made at our Milford office.
Cleanings and exams
Regular cleanings, comprehensive exams, and digital X-rays form the backbone of preventive care at both our Milford and Henniker offices. They catch problems early, before they become bigger ones.
We also place sealants and make custom nightguards and sports mouthguards.
Emergency Dentistry
Cracked tooth, sudden pain, lost crown, knocked-out tooth. Call us first. At Family Dental Care of New Hampshire, we do everything we can to see emergency patients the same day.
Sedation Dentistry
If you're nervous about the dentist, or it's been years since your last visit, nitrous oxide can help you relax through cleanings, fillings, and longer treatments.
Dentures
Custom partial and full dentures made to fit your mouth and look natural, including implant-supported dentures that snap into place for a more secure fit.
TMJ Treatment
If you wake up with a sore jaw, hear clicking when you chew, or get frequent headaches, your TMJ may be the cause. We offer custom appliances and conservative treatments to help.
Fillings, crowns, and bridges
A small cavity gets a tooth-colored filling, and a larger one may need an inlay or onlay. A crown protects a tooth that's too damaged for a filling, and a bridge replaces a missing tooth. At our Milford office, we can design, mill, and place a same-day crown in one visit.
Root canals
If a tooth throbs or stays sensitive to hot and cold, the nerve inside may be infected. A root canal treats it so you can keep the tooth.
Gum disease treatment
Gums that bleed when you brush can be an early sign of gum disease. We treat it with deep cleanings and laser gum therapy.
Extractions
When a tooth is too damaged, infected, or crowded to keep, we make sure you're numb and comfortable, remove it gently, and talk through options for replacing it, like a bridge, a denture, or an implant.
Cosmetic and specialty care
When you'd like a brighter smile, or you need implants or sleep apnea treatment, our team offers that care too.
