How often should we visit the dentist?
It varies. On average, people visit the dentist vaughan every 6 months. Some people need to see the dentist more frequently at every 3 months due to gum problems or high dental cavity risk. Those with minimal risk can visit the dentist every 9 months.
Your dentist will advise you about how often to visit. Regular dental check-ups are important. The dentist will examine your mouth to see if your dentures continue to fit properly. The dentist also examines your mouth for signs of oral diseases including cancer. With regular professional care, a positive attitude and persistence, you can become one of the millions of people who wear their dentures with a smile.
A. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that most children see a pediatric dentist at least twice a year. Children at higher risk for tooth decay, unusual growth patterns, or poor oral hygiene may be advised to visit more frequently. Consult with your pediatric dentist to find out the best appointment schedule for your child. For information about our Pediatric Dental Clinic, click here.
