Why are Regular Dental Checkups & Cleanings Important?
If you consistently brush and floss at home, you might wonder if coming to our office every six months for a dental checkup and teeth cleaning is still important. The answer is “yes!” After all, oral health problems like tooth decay and gum disease can develop under the radar and continue to progress unchecked. Plus, harmful substances, like tartar, can only be removed with the special cleaning tools we have at our office. In short, your biannual visits are crucial when it comes to both catching and preventing common dental issues.
What to Expect During a Dental Checkup
During the examination portion of your visit, we will take X-rays (if necessary) and one of our talented, friendly, and experienced dentists will conduct a visual examination. If they find anything concerning, like a cavity between your teeth, then they will discuss possible treatment recommendations that fit your personal preferences and budget. Otherwise, they will answer any questions you have pertaining to your oral health and see you at your next visit!
What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
During the cleaning portion of your visit, we will take care of the dangerous plaque and tartar that’s constantly accumulating in the mouth. We will also floss your teeth, polish your teeth, and share any feedback or recommendations we have about your at-home oral hygiene regimen. At the end of your appointment, your smile will feel completely revitalized; we want our patients to leave our dental office feeling confident about the future of their oral health.
