We know it is still July, but before you know it, your kids will be returning to school. Which is why now is a great time to schedule a visit for a checkup and cleaning! In today’s blog, your team at Celina Family Dentistry talks about the value of a back-to-school checkup and cleaning for families in Celina, TX.
Checkups for Kids and Adults
Before kids start school and your schedule becomes a lot more hectic, why not bring them in for a checkup? You should schedule one for yourself too! With a dental exam, we can look at your teeth and gums for signs of trouble using advanced digital imaging, making the process fast and comfortable. Our team can then create a treatment plan to address any concerns we uncover, and can discuss ways to better improve your daily oral hygiene routine. We can help kids become used to the dentist, so they don’t have anxiety about visiting the dentist as adults, and will be more likely to better understand their oral health and better care for their smiles in the years to come!
Cleaning Your Smile
In the same visit, we will also clean the smile. With a dental cleaning, we use an ultrasonic scaling device and a manual tool to thoroughly break up and remove all plaque and tartar from the teeth, which limits the risk of everything from tooth decay to gum disease. The process only takes a few minutes, and we then complete it by polishing the teeth for a brighter appearance.
If we find issues that need attention, we could discuss treatment like a filling placement, which could be done before school starts, so everyone begins a new season with better oral health and brighter smiles!
Better Homecare Habits
Along with general checkups and cleanings every six months, our team can also discuss better homecare habits to protect smiles in between these six months visits. For example, everyone in your household can brush and floss daily, limit how much sugar is in their diets, and avoid tobacco products, all actions that keep smiles healthy and strong, and free of decay and disease.
If you want to schedule a back-to-school checkup and cleaning for your family, then reach out to our team today to start the process, so we can help protect smiles of all ages from cavities and more. We look forward to hearing from you, and seeing you for a visit!
