When Was Your Last Dental Visit?
We’ve all done it: missed an oil change, skipped a physical, or pushed off a dental visit. It’s easy to let routine care fall to the bottom of the list when nothing feels wrong. But just like skipping that oil change can lead to engine trouble, putting off preventive dental care can leave you with unexpected and avoidable surprises.
May is National Dental Care Month. If it’s been a while since we’ve seen you, now is a great time to get back on track and check in on your smile. Keep reading to see why preventive care matters—and how to know if you’re due for a visit.
Why Routine Dental Appointments Make a Big Difference
Regular dental visits aren’t just about polishing teeth (although that’s a bonus). They also give us a chance to:
- Catch issues before they turn into major ones
- Remove plaque buildup that even great brushing can miss
- Screen for oral cancer and other conditions that benefit from early diagnosis
- Answer questions you have about your teeth, gums, or smile
Comfortable Care for Every Stage of Life
We care for smiles of all ages—whether it’s your child’s first checkup or a routine visit to keep your teeth healthy. Our general dentistry services include preventive care like cleanings, digital X-rays, fluoride treatments, tooth-colored fillings, gentle extractions, and root canal therapy when needed.
We take the time to explain your options, answer your questions, and help you feel confident in your care. And if you’re bringing little ones, we’ll ensure their early dental visits are a positive and comfortable experience.
