Your preventive care visits with us aren’t just all about checking for cavities. They’re also about helping you out with your care at home. For instance, if your brushing isn’t on point, you haven’t been flossing (or you can’t seem to get the hang of it), or otherwise, it’s time for us to look for evidence that you need a little help. It’s also a good time for you to voice your feelings, so we can guide you in areas that are presenting challenges!
The not-related-to-hygiene stuff we reference regarding your preventive care with us includes just about anything else related to your oral health. For instance, if you have chapped lips that you cannot seem to moisturize, we can help! If you’re showing signs of bruxism disorder, we will detect them and offer treatment. We check on your dental work, too, to ensure everything is in good condition and that your bite is well-balanced.
Schedule cleanings and checkups every six months, so your smile is healthy, functional, clean, beautiful, and its very best!
