Your smile is as unique as you are, and requires personalized care to keep it healthy and bright. Some patients should see a dentist more than others to achieve and maintain good oral health and wellness. According to the American Dental Association, you should see your trusted local dentist every six months (or twice yearly) to maintain optimal oral health. We recommend scheduling a checkup and cleaning twice a year, but our team will always help you decide what treatment schedule is right for you and your family.
When you arrive for your next scheduled checkup at Legacy Dental, here is what you can expect:
A thorough oral exam is performed to evaluate your overall oral health and wellness. As part of our routine exams, a member of our team will check your teeth, gums, and other oral tissues for signs of disease, decay, or infection. Your dentist will use the results of your exam to make treatment recommendations as needed.
A dental cleaning every six months helps prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health concerns. During your cleaning, a team member will thoroughly clean those hard-to-reach places between your teeth and remove plaque from the surfaces of the enamel. This will freshen your breath and clear away surface-level staining, revealing a brighter smile in one simple procedure.
We take digital X-rays to gain a better understanding of your total oral health, both above and below the gum line. X-rays allow us to see problem areas and dental concerns that may not show up during a regular examination.
