Why are Regular Dental Checkups & Cleanings Important?
Seeing Dr. Newman every six months for dental checkups and cleanings gives you a chance to stay on top of your oral health and avoid some of the most serious oral health problems, like dental decay, cavities, and gum disease.
Also, these visits allow you to save money and time in the long run. By allowing your dentist to regularly check your smile for any problem areas, you have a better chance of getting ahead of the issue. We can administer proper care before your symptoms worsen, which means you spend less time and money on restorative treatments, like dental fillings and dental crowns.
Finally, the choice to visit every six months reduces your risk of dental damage. When your teeth remain strong and better protected (thanks to a custom mouthguard), you will appreciate the added layer that safeguards your smile while playing sports or grinding your teeth at night while you sleep.
What to Expect During a Dental Checkup
During your dental checkup, you will have X-rays and digital images taken of your smile before a thorough oral cancer screening occurs. This allows our team to identify early abnormalities (i.e., discolored tissue, oral sores that refuse to heal, bad breath, etc.) and recommend immediate testing and treatment.
Dr. Newman will then discuss your treatment options if he finds anything that causes concern, such as dental decay, gum disease, staining, etc. We’ll discuss the details of your plan and develop a treatment plan for you to review.
What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
In addition to a standard dental checkup, you will also undergo a thorough cleaning. This allows our team to remove any accumulated plaque and tartar from the surfaces of your teeth. We’ll also chart your gum tissue to ensure there are no gum pockets forming.
We want you to walk away with a healthier, tartar-free smile that looks good, feels great, and can be used without pain or worry.
