Well, regular exams and cleanings is important for dental health because a lot can happen to somebody’s teeth in six months and a year especially if you get over a year. I think a lot of times people don’t realize how quickly a year goes, you know, and you won’t see somebody for… And then it’s, like, “Oh, it’s been five years since you were here,” and they have no idea.
They’re, like, “Oh, I was just here.” I’m, like, “No, it’s actually been five years.” As people go through life and age, you know, their dental health can change and sometimes when people get more advanced in age and they get on different health issues, maybe they have to take a few more medications, and those people’s, actually, dental health can change fairly rapidly. So, I would say it is a good idea to come in, you know, really regularly to your dentist.

It’s more comfortable too, with less scraping. Afterward, your mouth will have that freshness you can only get from a professional cleaning.
Dr. Studerus will perform his exam on your teeth and gums, paying close attention to any problem areas noted by the hygienist. If we find any issues such as cavities or gum disease, we’ll let you know and offer treatment options for remedying them.
