You can make the best use of your time in the office by coming prepared with updates or changes in your recent health history. This is also an excellent time to ask your hygienist or dentist any questions you may have.

For other specific services, give us a call.

I brush and floss regularly, do I still need a checkup?

The short answer is yes.

The long answer is while we are very happy to hear that you brush and floss regularly, coming in twice a year for cleanings and checkups ensures that we are able to confirm the health of your teeth and gums. These visits also allow us to identify potential problems much earlier. Prevention is a verb that requires commitment. If you wait until you feel pain, you may have waited too long.
