SIX: The Dental Connection!

When was the last time that you paid us a visit?  If you are like many people, chances are it was more than six months ago.  We hear the reasons why people neglect their regular dental visits all of the time: lack of money or quality dental insurance, busy schedules, fear, and LIFE!  However, your twice-yearly checkups are so important for your dental health and for your overall health as well.

You may brush for two minutes twice daily and even floss, and your teeth may feel fine, but regular dental checkups are NOT about addressing problems and reacting to them.  They are about cavity prevention!  No matter how much you brush and floss, there is still a chance that food, other debris and bacterial buildup can develop between your teeth.  This accumulation can make your teeth vulnerable to decay and gum disease.

It's important to know that the majority of dental problems do not become visible or painful until they are highly advanced! Prevention truly is the key!  Make sure your teeth get the professional attention they deserve! If you are overdue for your next cleaning or have a question, call our dental office at 918-455-0123!

God Bless,
DRT
