When Was Your Last Biannual Checkup?

Like the name suggests, you are supposed to see your dentist at least twice each year for a dedicated cleaning of the surface of your teeth and an examination of your mouth. That means that if it has been longer than six months since your last one, then you are due for some prevention. When you find yourself falling short in your oral health journey, call your dentist and schedule a time to talk teeth.

If you are due for a checkup, it is important to find your way back to a positive pathway. While you wait, plaque and tartar can pose real problems at all ages, including tooth decay, gingivitis, and more. So, take the time to schedule your next checkup and experience a fresher, safer smile.

Oral Health Maintenance Is Important At All Ages

Everyone with teeth needs to see their dentist for routine oral health maintenance, and that includes your children. Even though they will inevitably lose their first set of teeth, these provide a path for their adult ones. When they lose them prematurely, it could result in a need for orthodontic interventions.

Thankfully, their schedule tends to line up with that of their parents. Just like you, they typically need to visit the dentist once every six months for a cleaning and examination. So, when you find yourself due for a checkup, see if you can schedule your little’s, as well.
