When Was The Last Time You Visited The Dentist?
We don’t know about you, but we cannot be more excited for spring to start on March 19th. Along with the hopes of warmer weather and enjoying more time outdoors, spring is a time when many people like to clean and tackle home projects. In addition to cleaning your home, now is the perfect time to schedule the cleaning of your teeth and any treatments we may have recommended. If it has been longer than six months since your last oral hygiene examination and cleaning, we encourage you to schedule your next appointment today. Delaying routine appointments and treatments can lead to serious oral health complications in the future. Continue reading to learn more.
Don’t Delay, Call Us Today!
During routine oral hygiene examination appointments, we do more than thoroughly clean your teeth. We also check for problems, such as dental decay, gum disease, and oral cancer. Even if you take excellent care of your teeth and have a wonderful oral hygiene routine, you may still experience problems with your oral health. These appointments also allow us to monitor any changes in your teeth and gums from one appointment to the next.
The longer you go between appointments, the greater your risk of experiencing complications with your oral health. We would hate for a problem to go undetected and for you to have a dental emergency. Most people should be visiting our office every six months for an oral hygiene examination and cleaning. However, patients with certain conditions, such as gum disease, will require more frequent visits. We are happy to help if you are unsure of how often you and your loved ones should be visiting our office.
If you need to schedule an appointment for yourself or a loved one, be sure to contact our office, which is located in Wilmington, DE. We are also happy to treat patients from Pike Creek and Newark, DE. We can also assist if you are unsure of the date of your last visit or need to schedule a recommended treatment. Spring is the perfect time to ensure your mouth is healthy for any spring and summer events or plans. We look forward to seeing you soon!
