The idea of going to the dentist for semiannual exams and cleanings is, for many, not a priority. However, regularly scheduled visits to your dentist can help you to not only maintain a beautiful smile, but also help you to avoid health problems. Yes, a visit to your dentist every 6 months can have a great impact on your overall health. The Offices of Dr. Parul Mehta & Associates performs hundreds of thorough dental cleanings and exams every week. We accept nearly all insurances and most likely your exam and cleaning will be free since it is a preventative procedure. If you are still thinking about if you should come in for a visit, here are a few more reasons you should give it serious consideration.
Tooth Decay Prevention
Millions suffer from tooth decay throughout the U.S. Yet, it is wholly preventable. Although regular brushing and flossing helps to stave off decay, more is required. Regular dental cleanings performed by a licensed dentist or hygienist remove tough to reach areas in the mouth. These visits will remove soft and hardened plaque as well as any tartar accumulation. Regular exams catch problems before they have matured into serious issues. If you have ever received other dental work, your dentist will be able to see if it is holding up well or if attention will need to be given it in the near future.
Once you become regular in your visits, your dentists will be able to compare your x-rays and determine patterns for your oral health. Doing so can help you maintain a healthy bite, gums, and a beautiful smile. Dr. Mehta takes pride in helping her patients to enjoy the best oral health possible.
