Yes! For most patients, we do recommend scheduling bi-annual visits in accordance with the American Dental Association. The professional cleaning our patients receive with us is more thorough than what they can achieve at home, and is key for maintaining a healthy mouth.
We also use these visits to examine each patients’ teeth and gums so that we can identify any potential issues before they become serious. In fact, we may encourage patients with certain risk factors for gum disease, such as smoking, a family history of gum disease, or diabetes, to visit us more frequently.
