How Often Do You Need a Dental Checkup?

In general, you need to go to the dentist at least twice per year for regular cleaning, regardless of how healthy you think your mouth is. This means you should schedule a dental appointment every 6 months. You may have to go to the dentist more often depending on your oral health, but this is something that Dr. Brannock will discuss with you on a case-by-case basis.

What Happens During a Dental Cleaning and Exam?

There are several goals during a routine dental visit. They include:

  • Remove plaque and tartar from your teeth.

  • Identify signs of cavities and gum disease.

  • Treat any potential oral health issues before they have a chance to get worse.

During your dental cleaning and exam, our dental hygienist will thoroughly remove plaque and tartar from your teeth. Our dental hygienist will also floss between your teeth remove food debris that you may have overlooked. The goal is to make sure your teeth and gums are as clean as possible, as this will make it easier for Dr. Brannock to conduct a thorough inspection of your mouth.

Once your teeth are clean, Dr. Brannock will inspect your mouth for any signs of cavities or other issues. There is also a chance that we may order some x-rays, especially during your first visit to our office. X-rays are important because they give us a chance to see critical areas such as underneath your gum tissue. We want to make sure we do not overlook any potential oral health problems.

What Are the Top Benefits of Regular Cleanings and X-Rays?

There are several benefits of routine dental cleanings and x-rays. They include:

  • They give our dental team a chance to identify oral health issues before they have a chance to cause more severe problems.

  • They give Dr. Brannock a chance to speak with you about ways you can improve your brushing and flossing.

  • You get to learn about advances in oral health that could make it easier for you to take care of your teeth after the appointment is finished.
