When your smile is healthy, it’s also brighter. Regular cleanings remove plaque and stains, leaving you with a polished and refreshed smile.
How Often Should You See the Dentist?
We recommend scheduling a dental checkup every six months for most patients. For individuals with specific concerns like gum disease or a history of dental issues, more frequent visits may be advised. Consistent care is key to preventing problems and maintaining a confident smile.
Dental Checkups for All Ages
Kids
Early dental visits are essential for building lifelong healthy habits. Our gentle approach helps children feel comfortable and confident during their checkups. We focus on educating kids about brushing and flossing, while performing preventive treatments like fluoride applications and sealants to protect against cavities.
Teens
Adolescence is a critical time for oral health, with changes like braces or wisdom teeth often coming into play. Our teen-focused care addresses these challenges, providing targeted cleanings, cavity prevention, and guidance on maintaining excellent oral hygiene—even with orthodontic appliances.
Adults
Regular dental checkups are vital for adults to stay ahead of potential issues like cavities, gum disease, or tooth wear. Our thorough exams, professional cleanings, and personalized advice keep your oral health on track, helping you maintain a bright, confident smile.
Seniors
As we age, oral health needs can change significantly. Seniors benefit from specialized care that focuses on preventing gum disease, managing dry mouth, and maintaining existing dental work like crowns, bridges, and dentures. We also perform regular screenings for oral cancer and other age-related concerns to ensure lasting oral health.

Can dental checkups detect serious health problems?

What happens if I skip a checkup?
Skipping dental visits can lead to plaque buildup, gum disease, and missed early detection of potential oral health issues, which may require more complex treatment later.
How do I prepare for a dental checkup?
Brush and floss your teeth before your appointment, and bring any questions, concerns, or updates about your medical or dental history to discuss with your dentist.
