Regular Dental Checkups

A dental exam is necessary to get good oral hygiene and is an effective way to identify problems at their initial stages.


The American Dental Association recommends checkups two times a year. Your needs for oral hygiene may differ from age and the state of your teeth and gums. Your dentist may ask you to schedule a dental checkup that is more than twice a year.
