The Importance of Regular Dental Care
Routine dental cleanings and exams are essential for maintaining healthy oral care. Dentists highly recommend them to prevent potential dental issues and ensure long-term oral health. According to the American Dental Association (ADA), it’s advised to schedule routine cleanings and exams every six months. While daily practices like brushing and flossing are crucial for keeping teeth clean, routine dental visits address areas that at-home care might miss, ensuring your oral hygiene remains at its best.
Your Visit
Our skilled hygienists will perform a professional cleaning, targeting areas that are difficult to reach on your own with a toothbrush and floss.
During the exam, your dentist will thoroughly assess your teeth and gums. In addition to ensuring your teeth are clean and in good condition, they will check your head, neck, and mouth for any signs of gum disease, tooth decay, plaque buildup, or oral cancer.
These routine visits play a vital role in preventing oral health issues. By catching early signs of potential problems, we can help you avoid more serious concerns in the future. If you have any questions or concerns about the appearance or health of your teeth, your exam is a great time to address them.
