The Importance of Regular Dental Checkups

Going to the dentist every six months is one of the most effective actions you can take for your oral health. During these routine visits, we may take dental x-rays to look for any infection or decay, before performing a detailed examination of your teeth and gums. If we notice any changes that require additional treatment, we can schedule follow-up appointments. These regular checkups allow us to monitor specific concerns and provide you with timely care if necessary.

During your routine checkup, we also screen for oral cancer by checking your lymph nodes and neck area in addition to your mouth during the physical examination. 

Our staff can educate you on proper techniques for brushing and flossing so you can do this effectively twice a day between visits. We can also recommend products that address your particular dental needs.

Keep Your Teeth & Gums Healthy with Preventative Care

When we see you for a regular checkup, we perform a standard teeth cleaning. Even with consistent oral hygiene at home, brushing and flossing cannot get rid of all the buildup and tartar that forms on your teeth. This is why getting professional cleanings at least twice a year is important to keep your teeth and gums healthy. 

Our team also offers periodontal therapy to prevent and treat gum disease. This infection can happen for various reasons, including poor dental care. Hardened buildup pulls your gums away from your teeth and bacteria fill the pockets that periodontal disease creates. We often use root planing and scaling to treat early-stage gum disease. Also known as a deep cleaning, this procedure involves removing all plaque and debris under the gum line before polishing your teeth roots. This allows the gums to heal and safely reattach to the teeth.

If you haven’t seen a dentist in a while, don’t worry! Our team will help you get back on track with your oral health. Our gentle providers and stress-free office will customize a treatment plan to improve and preserve your beautiful smile.
