Visiting a dentist every six months can save you from more pain and intense restorative work down the road. Your dentist and hygienist do more than just clean your teeth at your appointment. Over the course of the exam, they also look for signs of oral cancer, diabetes, and vitamin deficiencies. The dentists train to identify TMJ, off-set bite, and swollen lymph nodes by checking your head and neck for irregularities. Finding a dentist you like and trust is important, but even more so is attending regular appointments. Following up on regular visits with your dentist allows them to regularly track your oral health. Contact us online or call to schedule your first appointment.
