Maintaining good dental health is essential for more than just a bright smile. Studies reveal a strong connection between oral health and overall wellness. Conditions such as diabetes, respiratory issues, arthritis, heart disease, strokes, and pregnancy complications have all been associated with oral infections and inadequate oral hygiene.
We recommend scheduling dental visits every six months for those with good oral health. This allows our team to track and address issues like cavities, tooth decay, and gum disease. For individuals with specific concerns like gum disease, more frequent visits—up to three or four times a year—may be necessary to track and address these issues effectively.
We'll conduct a thorough dental examination of your teeth and oral tissues, noting any areas of concern. Our staff will also examine your gums to determine their health.
Every dental checkup includes a comprehensive examination because many other factors might have a substantial impact on your oral health:
Your dentist will devise a treatment plan based on the examination results. A dental filling, for example, could be used to treat a cavity.
Brushing and flossing are essential for preventing many oral health issues, but there are certain areas in your mouth that can be difficult to clean thoroughly without specialized tools. Removing plaque and tartar is a key part of preventive dental care, as plaque builds up over time and can only be effectively eliminated using advanced tools.
Your Antioch dental hygienist can use specialized dental devices to reach places that your toothbrush and floss can't. These tools are excellent for eliminating plaque and other debris that can lead to cavities.
Our team will suggest a treatment plan to alleviate any oral infections if gum disease is discovered. To manage your gum disease effectively, we might suggest scheduling more frequent dental cleanings and check-ups.
Our highly trained dental hygienists or dentists are always delighted to answer inquiries about oral care, including at-home recommendations. We wish to educate our patients about oral health and provide them with knowledge and resources to help them succeed.
