Dental Check Ups!

How often do you see your dentist for a routine dental check up? We all assume that we need to go every six months, but did you know that your dental health will determine when you will be asked to come back for another check up?

Here are some frequent questions about check ups!

Why do we need dental check ups?

Dental check up are very important to our dental health, the dentist will do a examination of your mouth and detected any occurring problems you might have. Leaving any problems untreated will cause major problems in the future.

What does a dental check up include?

During the visit your dentist will:

1. Examine your mouth (teeth and gums).
2. Ask questions about your dental health, see if you are having any problems.
3. Give you advice for a healthy mouth.
4. Tell you when they want you back .

What about dental treatments?

Once you have had your check up, you may receive a treatment plan. A treatment plan is a outline of what procedures you may need done. Remember this is not set in stone, this is to show you what should be done to prevent any further problems that could occur.
