In addition to your oral hygiene program at home, regular dental checkups and continuing dental care are the foundation for maintaining optimum oral health and helping you keep your teeth for a lifetime.
It is a common misconception that the lack of dental pain means that all is well. This is not always the case. There are many dental problems – not accompanied by pain – which could require treatment.
Cavities, cracked and defective fillings, gum problems, and worn or fractured teeth could be detected and treated in the course of regular care before they become significant problems.
In addition, regular dental care gives you a chance to establish a dental home and enables you to discuss oral health issues of concern to you as they arise. You can discuss your specific needs with your dentist and hygienist to help develop the best plan for maintaining excellent oral health.
Our emphasis on prevention is the core of our dental health program. We recognize its fundamental importance and hope you will too. It is a critical part of keeping your teeth healthy for a lifetime!
