Why are Regular Dental Checkups & Cleanings Important?
Even the most diligent brusher and flosser can still get tartar buildup on their teeth. That’s why regular exams and cleanings from Dr. Camenzuli are so important. These appointments not only remove harmful buildup that could cause cavities and gum disease, but they also are a regular opportunity to screen you for any hidden dangers that could be lurking in your mouth, including tooth infections and oral cancer.
What to Expect During a Dental Checkup
When you arrive for your dental checkup, you may first need to have X-rays taken. This will help Dr. Camenzuli check your teeth and bones to make sure there are no hidden cavities or other problems that cannot be seen with the naked eye. Your dental technician may also measure the pockets of your gums to screen for gum recession caused by periodontal disease.
Next, your teeth and gums will be examined for any abnormalities, and you will be screened for oral cancer. This screening is painless, and only takes a few minutes, but it could save your life. Once this initial examination is completed, you’re ready for your cleaning.
What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
Following your examination, your teeth will be cleaned using a special tool which is excellent at removing tartar. Once each tooth has been individually cleaned, your technician will floss your teeth, and then polish them with a special toothpaste that will leave them looking whiter, brighter, and feeling smooth.
Dr. Camenzuli may return to the room at this time to go over any treatment plans and to give your newly clean teeth one more look before your appointment concludes. If you need any follow up care, you will be scheduled at this time.
