General Dentistry for You and Yours
The cornerstone of general dentistry is the dental checkup. In keeping with the recommendation of the American Dental Association, our dentists would like to see you and each member of your family every six months for dental checkups. With this regularity, we can more carefully monitor your overall oral health and notice any concerning changes sooner.
Of course, at every dental checkup we’ll clean your teeth and remove any plaque buildup, examine your gums for any early signs of periodontal disease and take digital x-rays to uncover any hidden spots of tooth decay. We will also inspect your soft tissues for oral cancer. When caught early, oral cancer—like periodontal disease—is treatable.

Older children may continue to suck their thumbs or fingers because of exhaustion, boredom or to relieve stress and anxiety. After a child’s permanent teeth erupt, thumbsucking can cause problems with the alignment crowding, crookedness and bite problems.
