Have you made big plans to ring the New Year? Have you planned out your resolutions? Well, our team would like you to remember your smile. With a checkup and cleaning visit to start 2020, your El Paso, TX, dentists can make sure your smile is healthy and ready for a new year. Let’s talk about the benefits of preventive care!
The Checkup
Every six months, people of all ages need to have their teeth examined thoroughly. We will use advanced technology to carefully look at the teeth, gums, oral structures, and even roots for possible signs of trouble. For children, we watch for cavities, the warning signs of developing misalignment, and gingivitis. For adults, we look for the warning signs of cavities, gum disease, TMJ disorder, bruxism, and oral cancer. The earlier we identify these problems, the sooner we can administer treatment, helping you avoid serious complications. These visits also help instill good habits and prevent dental anxiety for children.
Cleaning Your Teeth
Along with the dental exam portion, we will also clean your teeth thoroughly. Using an ultrasonic scaling device and a manual tool, our team will remove all plaque and tartar from the surfaces of the teeth. Doing so helps limit the risk of everything from bad breath and tooth decay and to teeth stains and gum disease. You should have one every six months, unless you have high risk factors for gum disease, at which point you should see us every three to four months. You should also clean your teeth at home, as kids and adults alike need to brush and floss daily to help control plaque until they can see us for a cleaning.
Same-Day Treatments and More
We’re here throughout the year to address damage with emergency dentistry, or to treat toothaches and more with custom fillings and crowns, and even minimal restorations for children! We can often perform procedures same-day, and we have evening and weekend hours for your convenience, so your schedule doesn’t have to stand between you and a healthier smile. With a full range of comprehensive treatment options for babies, toddlers, teens, and adults, we can help your entire family enjoy optimal oral health and an attractive appearance.
