Why is it recommended to get my teeth cleaned every six months?

Regular six-month cleanings are crucial for removing bacterial plaque and tartar that regular brushing can't manage. These visits help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues, and they also allow us to monitor your oral health closely.

What happens during a typical dental check-up at your clinic?

During your dental check-up, we'll conduct a thorough cleaning, assess your teeth and gums for any signs of disease or decay, and use digital imaging technologies if necessary. We'll also discuss any of your dental health concerns and provide tailored advice on how to improve your oral hygiene.

When should I expect my baby’s first tooth to emerge?

Most babies begin to see their first tooth appear between six months to one year. However, every child is different. We can discuss what to look out for and how to care for your baby’s teeth during your visit.

Should I arrive early for my first appointment?

Yes, arriving about 15 minutes early allows you enough time to complete any necessary paperwork and ensures we have all the information needed to provide you with the best care possible.

Are new patients currently welcome at your clinic?

Absolutely! We're always excited to welcome new patients to our dental family. You can easily schedule your first visit by calling our office or booking online.

I wear braces; do I still need regular dental checkups every six months?

Yes, maintaining regular dental checkups every six months is vital, even with braces. These visits allow us to clean areas that are hard to reach with braces and monitor your oral health to prevent any complications.

At what age should my child first visit the dentist?

We recommend bringing your child in for their first dental visit by the time they turn one or when their first tooth appears. Early visits help set the stage for a lifetime of good dental health.

My teeth feel fine; do I really need to visit the dentist regularly?

Yes, even if your teeth feel fine, regular visits are essential. Many dental issues, like early stages of decay or gum disease, may not cause pain initially. Early detection and dental treatment can save you from more complex and costly procedures in the future.
