Why Are Regular Dental Checkups & Cleanings Important?
Routine dental visits do more than just keep your teeth looking nice—they protect your long-term health. Checkups allow our Owasso dentist, Dr. Gaches, and the Infinite Smiles Dentistry team to catch signs of cavities, gum disease, and even oral cancer early on.
Regular cleanings also remove plaque and tartar buildup that your toothbrush leaves behind, prevent tooth loss, and keep your breath and smile feeling fresh. Removal of these bacteria-causing substances can also help avoid health-related issues like heart disease.
What to Expect During a Dental Checkup
During your checkup at Infinite Smiles Dentistry, we take the time to thoroughly examine every aspect of your oral health. Dr. Gaches will check for:
- Cavities and tooth decay
- Signs of gum inflammation or recession
- Issues with previous dental work (like fillings or crowns)
- Oral cancer warning signs
- Jaw alignment or bite problems
What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
While brushing and flossing at home are absolute musts to keep your oral health in check, they’re not adequate for complete dental health. Cleanings at our Owasso practice go way beyond what you can achieve with a toothbrush and floss at home. One of our skilled hygienists will:
- Gently remove plaque and tartar
- Polish your teeth for a smooth, clean feel
- Floss between each tooth
- Offer tips for better at-home care
