Have you seen your dentist lately? If it has been longer than six months since your last cleaning and exam, we encourage to you schedule a visit today! While your daily brushing and flossing habits form the basis for your oral care, routine checkups allow us to inspect the results of your effort and provide our professional assistance! We have the tools necessary to remove plaque and tartar deposits that you cannot handle on your own. By staying on top of a semiannual visiting schedule, we can create a dental record that detects abrupt changes in your oral health before they can grow further. This could mean placing a simple dental filling for a cavity instead of waiting until a more significant restorative treatment is required.
At Sunny Smiles Family Dentistry, we value preventive treatments to preserve your oral health and fight threats as soon as they appear. This means taking time out of your schedule to prioritize cleanings that remove the primary cause of cavities and gum disease. When you understand how important your visits can be, you can look forward to your next checkup!
Taking Control Of Your Oral Health
The goal of preventive dentistry is to maintain a healthy smile that reduces the need for more involved restorative procedures when serious problems take place. To achieve this goal, you must prioritize your at-home care and support it by scheduling regular dental checkups. Brushing your teeth twice per day and flossing removes the debris from your meals that can feed oral bacteria when left to form a sticky plaque. Your dental cleanings help ensure that all of the material is removed from the surface of your smile. Similarly, your exams detect oral issues more quickly than you would otherwise with your naked eye at home.
Seeking Emergency Dental Care Outside Of Your Checkup Schedule
While we can remove cavities and plan restorations at your semiannual checkups, do not wait to visit when you experience an injury or serious toothache. We are standing by to provide emergency services to stabilize injuries, restore broken teeth, and treat painful infections. Left alone, exposed portions of your tooth’s inner material greatly increase your likelihood of decay and infection, so you must receive relief right away. If we are unable to save an injured tooth, we can work with you to plan a replacement such as a dental bridge or implant.
