Benefits of regular check-ups with Kings Dental Practice.

1. Manage plaque, tartar, and conventional cavities – regular dental cleanings are designed to clean plaque and tartar, and prevent cavities from developing. Therefore avoiding any related future issues.

2. Finding hidden problems through x-rays – early diagnosis is key to identifying issues, and providing early treatment. It may not be necessary to take X-Rays at every visit, but these types of checkups are very valuable to see what is happening inside the teeth and gumline.

3. Checking for gingivitis and gum disease – taking steps to prevent both gingivitis and gum disease is vital in avoiding surgery in the future.

4. Cosmetic related issues with oral care – with oral health care, cosmetic related issues sometimes affect self-esteem.

5. Preventing Root Canals – with regular dental checkups, general tooth health can be monitored properly, and any suspicion of root canal problems can be diagnosed very early on. Ultimately avoiding the treatment.

6. Smokers and oral health – smokers are encouraged to attend dental checkups regularly in order to monitor oral health, while keeping an eye on potential problems that may arise from smoking. Those who smoke, in general, have stained teeth, and have more of a potential to develop dental problems.

7. Brushing and Flossing – brushing and flossing can always be improved, even for those who regularly conduct such practices. Fighting plaque on a daily basis is worthwhile – ideal for preventing tooth decay, and avoiding the potential for gum disease.
