Dental checkups are an important part of your overall health and wellness plan. The American Dental Association recommends routine exams and cleanings every six months. If you have ongoing dental issues, more frequent visits may be recommended. Regular dental exams are essential to maintain a healthy smile and catch any problems early. Your dentist will check for cavities, gum disease and signs of oral cancer, often before symptoms appear. Routine visits help prevent costly procedures down the road and keep your teeth and gums healthy.

Even if you brush and floss twice a day, you can still have issues with plaque and cavities. There are parts of your teeth and mouth that can be difficult to clean with regular brushing and flossing at home. Routine teeth cleanings performed at your dental checkup can help remove plaque and tartar from those hard-to-reach areas and help you avoid serious issues by detecting cavities early.

Prairie Dental focuses on customized treatment plans for every patient, so no two exams will be the same. But there are a few things you can expect at your dental checkup: We will do a quick review of your medical history to find out more about any current or past health issues, medications, diet and find out if you have any new concerns since your last visit. You will be asked if you have any questions about your teeth, mouth, gums and your overall dental health. Please bring up any concerns you have and tell us about any issues. Next, we will conduct an oral exam that includes a visual check of gum tissue and a visual oral cancer scan. If needed, you will also have digital dental x-rays at this time. This helps to check for any hidden issues below the gum line. Before the end of the appointment, we will review your comprehensive treatment plan to ensure your teeth and gums remain healthy. We will discuss any follow-up appointments you may need and go over any advice we have for at-home care.
