Give your teeth a tune up. We tune up our cars because the usual wear and tear of activity requires maintenance to keep your car running. The same could be said for teeth. The ADA recommends you visit a dentist at least twice a year. These tune ups will keep your teeth healthier and could possibly save you money by detecting problems before they become serious.
Dental exams are a vital component to preventative health care. During an exam our hygienist will thoroughly clean your teeth with the proper tools. The dentist will then evaluate your risk of developing tooth decay and other oral health problems. The dentist will also check for any abnormalities of the face, neck, or mouth. Dental x-rays are an integral part of the exam as they will allow the dentist to get an in depth look at your over all oral health. Armed with this knowledge the dentist can design a dental treatment plan that is right for you.
