Dental Checkups

Dental checkups are regular appointments with your dentist to assess and maintain oral health. During these visits, the dentist examines your teeth and gums for cavities, plaque buildup, or signs of gum disease. They may perform cleaning to remove tartar and polish your teeth, making them smooth and reducing bacteria. Checkups also include X-rays if needed to detect hidden issues. Regular dental visits help prevent problems, catch issues early, and keep your mouth healthy, fresh, and functional. Usually recommended every six months, these visits are a key part of overall health maintenance.
