Your Checkups Are Your Chance To Check In

If it’s been longer than six months since your last biannual dental checkup, then it’s time to schedule your next one. For most people, the goal is to come in twice each year for a thorough cleaning and a visual examination, alongside any necessary imagery. These visits have real oral health power, so don’t miss them.

One of the most important elements of your biannual checkups is your cleanings. Even with a dedicated approach to brushing and flossing, there still may be places you miss, and your cleanings help to catch them. Plaque and tartar accumulation leads to tooth decay, periodontal disease, and more, so make sure you stick to your schedule of checkups.

Gum Health Plays A Real Role In Your Overall Oral Health

At your next appointment, your dentist will take measurements of your gums. This is because your gum health plays a substantial part in your oral health journey. Without strong and healthy gums, you have a tough time keeping your teeth safe.

If your provider notices swelling or recession due to bacterial buildup, they can help you to make a plan. We can assist with cleanings even below the gumline, helping you to relieve some irritation. And if you need further help, we can refer you to a dedicated periodontist for quality care.
