Many people hate going to the dentist. It can be uncomfortable  and there is always the fear of pain that keeps people from their semi annual checkups and preventative dental procedures. If at all possible though, you don’t want to skip your check ups and routine dental procedures, such as cleanings, x-rays, enamel strengthening scrubs and more, because these things will keep your teeth healthy, strong and best of all save you from needing invasive surgery treatments, dental implants,  root canals and more. Just like with your car getting an oil change, by simply keeping up with the very routine dental check ups, you can ensure a long, healthy, lovely smile for the rest of your life.

Routine Dental Procedures

Preventative dental procedure treatments performed during your routine dental cleaning and exam help you maintain a clean and healthy smile. By scheduling your dental exams every six months, this will help the dentist customize a dental hygiene routine to meet the needs of your mouth and be proactive in identifying and resolving any dental concerns that may cause a problem down the road.

Even the most thorough individual who brushes and flosses twice a day leaves plague behind, which is why these routine visits are so important. In our relaxed and serene environment, our dental hygienist will thoroughly clean your teeth by removing plague in the hard to reach crevices during these visits. It’s important to remove plaque as hardened plaque near the gum line and between teeth can lead to gum disease.

Our highly trained and licensed dental hygienist will make sure you are comfortable and relaxed as your teeth get the gentle cleaning they deserve. Lastly, the dentist will examine your teeth, gums, and other areas of your mouth to detect any current or future problem areas. At Inner Banks Dental, we make sure you are informed of everything going on and armed with the best tools and knowledge to ensure your future visits to us continue to be for nothing but routine care.
