Visiting your dentist every six months for cleanings and checkups is essential for maintaining your oral health. Along with brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing once, going to the dentist regularly is one of the most important things you can do to help ensure strong and bright teeth for years to come.
Professional Cleanings
Even if you brush your teeth twice a day, plaque and bacteria can still build up. Because of this, a professional cleaning is still needed. One of our highly-skilled hygienists will thoroughly clean your teeth and gums with specialized tools that can remove everything your toothbrush cannot. Coming in every six months removes tartar build up, reducing the risk of advanced decay that could require dental fillings or other procedures. While we can provide a deep clean, we also pay close attention to your comfort, so your visit will be as pleasant as possible.
Dental Checkups
After a hygienist cleans your teeth, your dentist will closely examine your entire mouth to make sure everything looks good. Our team uses the latest dental technology to get the clearest picture of your oral health in a non-invasive way. The purpose of this exam is to identify any decay or weaknesses in your teeth and gums. If your dentist does find something out of the ordinary, they will discuss potential treatment options and suggest procedures to solve the problem.
