Why are Regular Dental Checkups and Teeth Cleanings Important?
Why are frequent visits so important? Because we want to diagnose and treat any oral health problem, no matter how small, as quickly as possible! Seeing us twice a year will help us stay on top of any changes in your oral health. If we find anything during your next visit, we can immediately explain what we’ve found and start talking to you about your treatment options. We’re committed to offering personalized care to every patient we see, and we will work hard to create a plan that matches your needs and your medical history.
What to Expect During a Dental Checkup
During your visit, your Dallas dentist will examine every corner of your smile for common problems like tooth decay, gum disease, and a range of other issues, including oral cancer. Our team is specially trained to identify these problems and propose solutions for treating them, so you can quickly regain good oral health and well-being again.
Of course, Dr. Shirley, Dr. Cannon, and Dr. Bickford will also talk with you about your brushing and flossing regimen. For optimal oral health, we recommend brushing at least twice a day – though it’s better if you can do so after every meal – and flossing daily. We might also recommend using a quality mouthwash. Some mouthwashes are designed to kill the bacterial plaque that causes gum disease while others contain fluoride and are made to strengthen your enamel against decay.
What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
During the cleaning portion of your visit, your hygienist will have the opportunity to clean your teeth. While brushing and flossing at home can do a lot to keep bacteria and plaque away from your smile, certain parts of it are harder to reach than others. With our advanced tools, we can clean your teeth more thoroughly and give your smile greater protection from problems like tooth decay and gum disease. Plus, we will gently polish your teeth before you leave, ensuring your smile feels and looks great!
