Importance of Preventive Dental Care
In the past, people waited until there was a serious oral health issue before seeking dental treatments, which lead to a need for advanced restoration services and extensive tooth loss at earlier ages. Today, we emphasize preventive treatments to avoid these severe oral health issues. The most important aspect of every dental prevention plan is to visit our team every six months for dental checkups and teeth cleanings. During these regular dental office appointments, we partner with patients to keep their smiles healthy and avoid the need for advanced dentistry services.
Your Dental Checkup at Tylan Creek Family Dentistry
During your dental checkups, you’ll receive four main services:
- Diagnostics – we capture x-rays and images to help us better understand any oral health concerns. You will be able to view these images with us, so you have a clearer understanding of any issues and treatment options.
- Examinations – our skilled dentists will carefully evaluate your oral and facial structures screening for warning signs of common oral health concerns, including tooth decay, gum disease, TMJ dysfunction, teeth grinding and clenching, and oral cancer.
- Cleanings – a skilled hygienist will carefully remove plaque and tartar buildup from even the most difficult to access parts of the smile, ensuring patients’ smiles are completely clean and there are no areas where bacteria or plaque are accumulating that need greater focus during at home care. Your hygienist can also answer any questions you have about caring for your smile at home, what oral hygiene products to use, and best techniques to care for your teeth and gums.
- Consultations – you’ll sit down one on one with the dentist to discuss any areas for concern that arose during your dental checkup. We will be happy to answer any questions you have throughout your appointment, but the consultation period is a great opportunity to get more information. Before you leave, we will create an ongoing plan to repair any dental damage or help you maintain your healthy, happy smile until we see you again.
Bring the Whole Family
Another benefit of receiving preventive care at Tylan Creek Family Dentistry is that we’re able to accommodate every member of your family in our dental office. In fact, we can usually set aside a block of appointment times, so you can bring the entire family to see us on the same day for maximal convenience and saved time.
