What general dentistry covers
General dentistry is the foundation of good oral health — preventive check-ups that catch problems early, treatments that address decay before it becomes more serious, and restorations that preserve your natural teeth for as long as possible. Studio Marcato offers the full range of general dental services for patients of all ages.
Services available
- Comprehensive check-up — thorough examination of all teeth, gums, soft tissues, and jaw joint; assessment of existing restorations
- Digital X-rays — bitewing, periapical, and panoramic (OPG) X-rays on site
- Composite (white) fillings — tooth-coloured fillings that blend naturally and are bonded to the tooth for strength
- Tooth extractions — simple extractions for teeth that cannot be saved; see also our oral surgery page for surgical extractions
- Temporary restorations — emergency stabilisation of broken teeth or lost fillings/crowns while a permanent solution is planned
- Sensitivity treatment — diagnosis and management of tooth sensitivity
- Mouth guard fabrication — custom night guards for teeth-grinding (bruxism)
- Referrals and treatment coordination — when specialist treatment is needed, we guide you through the options and coordinate care
Our conservative philosophy
We believe in doing as little as necessary — and doing it well. We will never recommend a crown where a filling will do, or an extraction when a tooth can be saved. Our approach is to extend the life of your natural teeth as long as possible while keeping treatment minimal and proportionate.
This means we will also tell you honestly when something does not need treatment yet, and explain what to watch for. Not everything requires immediate action.
For tourists and short-stay visitors
A routine check-up and professional clean fits easily within a day visit to Naples. We see many tourists who use their stay to catch up on dental care they've been putting off — it's an efficient use of your time and avoids waiting lists at home.
For tourists with an acute problem — a lost filling, mild toothache, broken crown — we aim to see you the same day or next working day. WhatsApp us and we'll sort it out.
