What Do We Recommend Dental Checkups at El Segundo Modern Dentistry?
Dental checkups will include a routine cleaning and thorough examination of your teeth. Checkups are ideally scheduled once every six months. Our expert examinations allow us to detect and prevent dental problems as soon as possible, which helps save you and your family money down the road. Our gentle and thorough cleanings not only polish your stunning smile but also remove tartar, bacteria, and debris that can cause painful dental complications, such as tooth sensitivity or infections.
Are Dental Checkups from El Segundo Modern Dentistry Essential to Oral Health?
Yes, dental checkups help maintain optimal oral health. Even the most diligent brushers and flossers need to receive regular dental checkups since there is plaque and tartar that only a professional dental hygienist can reach and remove. In addition, dental checkups check for more serious and potentially life-threatening issues like oral cancer. If detected early enough, oral cancer is typically treatable. In addition, dental x-rays offer us a view of other issues that can be hard to detect. More specifically, they can detect cysts, tumors, and tooth or bone decay. Regular dental checkups can help save teeth from extraction later.
