One of the things that you can do to ensure your smile is healthy this year and beyond is to decide that one of your long-term, forever priorities is preventive dental care. Why, you ask? The reason this is essential is because prevention always makes up the foundation of your oral health. When you’re on track, you are protecting your tissues on a daily basis from the potential attack of bacteria and functional issues that can derail a smile that may otherwise remain healthy. It’s all about being consistent. When you do so, you dramatically reduce the risk of oral health concerns.
During your checkup and cleaning with us, which you should schedule twice each year as part of the aforementioned preventive dental care you need, we can talk with you about your oral health progress. If all is well, you’ll just head home and we will see you in six months. If we find that you need care to fix an issue like decay, we will recommend the appropriate restorative treatment (such as a filling) and send you on your merry way. You can then come in, restore your oral health, and we will see you for your next preventive visit when it’s time.
Good. Now you know how to very easily and successfully rely on dental care to keep your smile healthy. However, do you know what to do if one of the additional concerns you have for your smile is the fact that it doesn’t look the way you’d like? Let us know. We will incorporate your goals into a comprehensive care plan by adding cosmetic care to the list.
Take advantage of all that a brand new year has to offer your smile by dedicating yourself to coming in to see our team and to taking our advice for both home and professional dental care.
