How Often Should You See the Dentist for a Regular Checkup?
Patients with healthy gums and teeth should visit the dentist twice a year for routine cleanings and checkups to maintain their oral health and catch any concerns early. Those with a history of periodontal disease may benefit from more frequent visits, typically three to four times a year, to help manage their condition and prevent progression. You should also schedule an appointment anytime you experience pain, discomfort, or notice changes in your mouth, or if you simply have questions or concerns about your dental health. At Angell Street Dental Associates, we are here to support you, ease your worries, and provide expert care whenever you need us.
What Happens During a Preventative Care Visit?
During a preventative care visit at Angell St Dental, our team thoroughly evaluates your oral health to catch potential issues early and maintain your smile. The appointment typically includes a professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar, a detailed examination of your teeth and gums, and digital X-rays if needed to check for cavities or other underlying concerns. We’ll also assess your bite, check for signs of oral disease, and provide personalized guidance on brushing, flossing, and other at-home care. Our goal is to keep your mouth healthy, prevent future problems, and ensure you leave feeling informed, comfortable, and confident in your oral health.
