As we head into one of the most exciting weekends of the year, make sure that you’re keeping the focus where it counts. If your family is celebrating a holiday this weekend, take some time to talk to your family about their oral health needs before you start, because all that candy can lead to plaque and tartar buildup which can cause tooth decay, gum disease, and more. But when your family keeps the emphasis on their smiles, you can have a great time while staying safe.
When you come see Sunny Smiles, you are taking steps for your oral health needs. This starts with your biannual checkup, and if it’s been a while since your family was last in, use this as your opportunity to install some changes. Most people need these visits every six months, and that holds true for young patients as well, so when you’re ready to find your way back to a healthy path, ask about scheduling them together to save yourself some driving. We know how time-exhaustive parenting can be.

Are You Sticking To Your Schedule Of Biannual Checkups?
For most patients, the goal is to come in twice each year for a dedicated cleaning and examination. This timeline helps your provider to keep an eye on any developments that have happened since the last time that you were in the office, and it’s also your opportunity to experience a fresher smile. So, why do you keep putting them off?
If you have been avoiding the dentist, then it’s time to get back on track. Keeping to a consistent schedule of biannual checkups helps you to maintain your smile, and when you skip them, you put yourself at real risk of some common dental conditions. Plaque and tartar can build in areas where your brushing is not enough, leaving you in danger of tooth decay, periodontal disease, and more. Your checkups are important for your smile maintenance, now and throughout your life.
Your Little Ones Need Dedicated Dental Care, As Well
You are not the only one in your family who needs to see the dentist. If you have children, then they need to come in for checkups just like you do, and luckily, their timeline often matches up with their parents’. The next time you need to come in, see about scheduling your little one’s next checkup alongside you, so you can show them how it’s done.
