We believe in the benefits of regular preventative care and encourage each of our patients to return for periodic recall visits. Regular check-ups, in addition to good preventative home care and a professional hygiene cleaning appointment, are keys to maintaining good oral health.Most people should schedule oral hygiene appointments twice a year. Depending on the status of your oral health, we may recommend more frequent visits.

An oral hygiene appointment consists of much more than just a cleaning. One of our hygienists will clean and scale your teeth to remove plaque, calculus, and stain, then polish your teeth with either a rubber cup and paste or a baking soda/salt water jet spray rinse. Frequently, it is necessary to give a fluoride treatment. Next, we conduct a thorough examination for oral cancer, decay, problems with your tissue or gum disease, wear on your teeth and the overall appearance of your mouth. In addition, we evaluate your bite, facial muscles, temporomandibular joint (TMJ), and check the existing conditions of your fillings, crowns, denture, etc. Finally, we discuss our findings with you, make our suggestions for future dental treatment and encourage you to maintain good oral hygiene.

Without routine check-ups, decay and disease will go undetected. Regular dental visits can make the difference between losing and saving teeth. Please call our office today to schedule your appointment!!!
