Why are Regular Dental Checkups & Cleanings Important?
You know you need to brush and floss consistently, but you also need to visit us every six months for a dental checkup and cleaning. Why? To start, the tools we have at our dental office are the only ones that can effectively remove plaque and tartar. Furthermore, tooth decay, gum disease, oral cancer, and other serious conditions can go undetected if you don’t come in for an oral exam biannually. In short, your six-month visits to our office benefit the look, health, and function of your smile, so don’t skip them!
What to Expect During a Dental Checkup
Your checkup will be with one of our talented, kind, and experienced dentists in Kingwood . During this portion of your visit, they will review your X-rays, conduct a periodontal evaluation, assess the alignment of your bite, screen for oral cancer, examine the condition of your teeth and gums, take a look at your existing dental work – the list goes on! Basically, they thoroughly check for decay, infection, and other common problems to ensure your smile is healthy and, if it isn’t, that it’s restored right away.
What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
The cleaning portion of your appointment will be with one of our exceptional dental hygienists. With special tools and a gentle hand, they will remove built-up plaque and tartar while also cleaning the hard-to-reach areas of your mouth. They’ll also floss between each tooth, polish your teeth, and give you any recommendations they have on how to improve your at-home oral hygiene regimen.
