Need to know
How often should I schedule general dental checkups?
For most people, visiting the dentist twice a year for regular checkups is recommended. These visits allow us to monitor your oral health, prevent dental issues, and keep your smile bright. If you have specific concerns or conditions, we might suggest more frequent visits.
What should I expect during a routine dental checkup?
A routine checkup with us includes a thorough cleaning to remove plaque and tartar, a detailed examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth, and x-rays if needed. We’ll discuss any changes in your oral health and update your care plan accordingly.
Why is fluoride important in dental care?
Fluoride strengthens the enamel on your teeth, making them more resistant to decay. We often apply fluoride treatments during routine visits to help protect your teeth from cavities, especially if you’re at high risk for dental decay.
Can general dentistry help with bad breath?
Yes, regular dental cleanings and checkups can significantly improve bad breath. We can help identify and treat underlying causes such as gum disease or dry mouth, and provide guidance on improving your oral hygiene routine.
What are dental sealants and who should get them?
Dental sealants are protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars) to prevent decay. They are especially beneficial for children and teenagers as soon as their permanent molars come in, but adults can benefit from them too, particularly if they have deep grooves in their teeth.
