Do you have a regular at-home dental cleaning routine and feel confident you don’t need to see the dentist? As long as your teeth are feeling fine, you shouldn’t have to worry about a dental checkup, right?
Many people avoid regular dental checkups for several reasons, including a regular at-home dental routine, feeling fear about going to the dentist, or forgetting due to busy work and home schedules. Unfortunately, leaving dental checkups until you have a problem could be more costly than if you simply keep routine dental services on the calendar.
At Georgian Shores Dental Centre, we recommend that you schedule a dental checkup every six to twelve months to keep your teeth and gums looking and feeling their best. This frequency not only allows your dentist to identify any potential problems early on, but they can also help with any preventative measures that need to be taken before any problems get worse.
Another reason to keep your dental checkups on a regular schedule is to help your family members build a rapport with the dentist. Getting to know your dentist and dental hygienist will encourage positive visits and better dental care at home between visits. Better dental care between visits means better results at your next dental checkup!
