Advantage General Dentistry
Even if you aren’t experiencing any dental health issues, it is important to maintain a schedule of dental checkups every 6 to 12 months in order to ensure your teeth and gums stay healthy. Avoiding your dental exams gives issues you may have not noticed time to worsen. It could also cause new dental health issues because you will not be receiving the preventive care that your dentist provides during regular visits.
Health Tips & Info
We recommend visiting the dentist for a routine dental exam every 6 months to ensure your teeth and gums stay healthy. These preventative exams are quick, easy and affordable but help avoid potential risks developing that can be very serious!
Regular dental teeth cleanings remove calculus and plaque that naturally builds up on teeth over time. When buildup is allowed to accumulate, harmful bacteria can grow and begin to cause serious damage to your teeth and gums. Regular cleanings are an excellent way to guard against major dental issues such as tooth decay, gum disease, gingivitis, and oral cancer. Additionally, bacteria that breed in the mouth can eventually spread throughout your body, which can have detrimental effects on your general health as well. Poor dental hygiene has been proven to be linked to serious health issues such as stroke and heart disease.
During a regular dental cleaning visit, your dentist will first check the overall health of your teeth and gums. They will then remove any particles that have accumulated on your teeth and along your gums. Your dentist will also usually take x-rays of your teeth to compare to previous visits and discuss any problems or further dental work that may be needed. These visits usually take less than an hour and are completely painless for most patients. The dentists at RC Family Dental are both thorough and gentle to ensure that your regular cleaning is not only effective but comfortable as well.
Having your teeth regularly cleaned by a professional can help ensure proper oral hygiene as well as prevent bad breath. Regular teeth cleanings give your dentist the opportunity to identify problems such as cavities, damaged teeth and oral cancer. By keeping your teeth and gums free of tartar and plaque buildup, you can prevent gum disease and early tooth loss, ensuring that you have a healthy and bright smile for as long as possible.
