With consistent preventive care, our Owasso dental team can help a patient preserve their smile and lower their chances of needing more extensive (and expensive!) treatments over time. So, if it has been more than six months since your last visit, it’s time to schedule your next one! Our team of friendly experts look forward to giving you a healthy smile that never needs a second thought.
Brushing and flossing are great, but the truth is that they actually aren’t enough to completely meet a person’s dental needs and prevent issues like cavities over the long term. That’s because the teeth have many small and hard-to-reach surfaces brushes and floss simply can’t clean, and these can easily accumulate plaque and decay over time. Plus, oral health problems can develop under the radar without routine checkups, resulting in the need for more costly and time-consuming treatments. Simply put, visiting us biannually will benefit your oral and overall health as well as your wallet!
When you come in for a routine appointment, you’ll meet with our talented, friendly, and experienced dentist, Dr. Voto. He’ll ask you a few questions about your at-home oral hygiene regimen and any symptoms you’ve been experiencing before reviewing your X-rays and conducting an exam. His goal is to examine your teeth, gums, and any existing dental work you have to catch and treat problems at their earliest stages.
At our Owasso dental office, we have a talented team of dental hygienists as well. At your appointment, they will clear away harmful substances, like plaque and tartar, so they don’t have a chance to accumulate. Our smile enthusiasts will also share their recommendations, like areas that need more attention when you’re brushing or which floss to use to thoroughly clean between your teeth. That way, you can maintain a healthy, happy smile for years to come!
