While daily brushing and flossing is the cornerstone to a successful oral health routine, getting your teeth checked regularly (every 6-12 months) by a dentist ensures a healthy mouth.
Tobacco, diabetes, pregnancy, gum disease and poor oral hygiene are among the reasons to see your dentist more often than twice per year. Additionally, plaque and tartar will build up in the mouth at different rates from person to person.
Making sure to get your teeth checked regularly is smart, because at its core, dentistry is a preventive medical field. Coupled with daily oral care, dental check-ups are a great way to detect problems early and maintain oral health.
