Don’t Forget: Regular Dental Check-ups Prevent Future Problems
October 22, 2014
For some predictions, you don’t need a crystal ball: Take care of your teeth today and your teeth are far less likely to give you trouble tomorrow. Perhaps that’s why the American Dental Association recommends everyone visit the dentist at least twice yearly for a regular exam and teeth cleaning. If the time has come for your dental check-up, Dr. Renee Corbitt and her team in Fort Worth, TX, are ready to help you keep your teeth healthy today and tomorrow.
Step-by-Step Dental Check-up
The first thing Dr. Corbitt or the dental hygienist will do at your dental check-up is talk to you in order to find out if you’ve noticed anything different about your oral health. Be sure to mention any concerns that you have. Likewise, if you’ve been thinking of a cosmetic procedure, we’ll be happy to discuss the goals you have for your smile. We want your teeth to be healthy and look their best.
Next, we’ll carefully examine your teeth for cavities or any other signs of decay. If necessary, x-rays will be taken in order to see decay that may be invisible to the naked eye. We’ll also check to make sure your gums are healthy. Gum disease, both gingivitis and periodontitis, are serious conditions that not only affect your oral health, but may affect your general health, too. An oral cancer screening and sleep apnea screening will be part of your regular dental check-up, too. With these careful examinations, we can catch little problems and treat them conservatively before they become big problems.
Last but certainly not least, the dental hygienist will thoroughly clean, polish, floss and rinse your teeth, removing any tartar or plaque. Don’t forget: repeat in six months for optimal oral health and the brightest smile!
