Is it necessary to visit your family dentist twice a year for professional dental cleanings and exams? That depends on how much you like having a healthy mouth.
Let’s assume that you follow the American Dental Association’s recommendations to the letter. You brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes each time, cleaning your teeth on all sides with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. You also floss every day. That will go a long way toward preventing cavities.
No matter how well you are doing, there’s always a chance that you could miss a place — and that’s all it takes for a bacteria and plaque to build until you have a cavity. We can help prevent that with professional cleanings at our Florence, SC dentist office.
