Why Visit the Dentist?

Maybe you brush after every meal and Snack. Maybe you floss twice a day. Maybe you aren’t feeling any tooth sensitivity or experiencing symptoms of oral health issues. So why should you visit the dentist? Because only a professional cleaning can remove tartar and plaque from below the gum line – an essential thing if you want to remain free of gum disease. And only a visit to the dentist allows for early detection of oral health issues such as decay and infection that, when treated early, can easily be dealt with. Waiting to address these minor issues can cause very big problems including tooth loss, bone necrosis, and even heart attack and stroke. With those things in mind, the real question is, “Why would you not visit the dentist every six months?”
