Our Dental Checkups with Your Brentwood Dentist
Regular dental checkups enable the dentist to compare oral health changes over time. They also help us diagnose emerging conditions before they pose a serious risk to your oral health. For example, periodontal disease in the early stage of gingivitis is reversible. When it advances to periodontitis, it is merely treatable.
By seeing your dentist every six months for checkups, you’ll also have regular oral cancer screenings for early detection, which often means a more favorable outcome.
Additionally, your checkups include a conversation with the dentist to address any questions or concerns you might have about your dental health. We’ll share any findings with you and discuss all potential treatment plans if warranted.
Educating you about your oral health and giving you the tools to make informed decisions is essential to our team.
Brentwood Dental Cleanings: What to Expect
Your dental cleaning is an excellent opportunity to relax while your hygienist gently removes debris and tartar from your teeth. This is a gentle and non-invasive procedure that uses specialized tools to gently remove cavity-causing ingredients and bacteria from the teeth and gums. We finish with a polish.
You may think that if you brush and floss regularly, you don’t need dental cleanings. Unfortunately, your toothbrush and dental floss can’t remove stubborn tartar or clear bacteria from hard-to-reach areas. For that, you need a professional teeth cleaning every six months.
We offer a full staff of dentists dedicated to your smile's health. They are skilled, personable, and enjoy helping patients achieve their best smiles. They are proud to serve their friends and neighbors in Brentwood and always look forward to welcoming new individuals and families. With us, you are never just a time slot on the schedule. You are someone we look forward to seeing and catching up with at every dental visit.
