Dr. Bates agrees with the American Dental Association’s recommendation that adults and kids have preventive dental checkups and teeth cleanings every six months. At these appointments, our North Salt Lake dentist performs a thorough exam and checks your teeth and gums for signs of cavities and periodontal disease.
Using updated dental technology like digital x-rays and intraoral cameras enables Dr. Bates to detect these issues and then show you what he sees. He’ll point out any areas of concern, and together you’ll discuss the best treatment to resolve the problem.
My Teeth Feel Okay. Do I Still Need a Checkup?
Yes, you still need dental checkups if your teeth feel okay. The goal of preventive dentistry is to avoid cavities from developing in the first place or to catch and treat them when they’re small and haven’t done too significant damage
Preventive exams and teeth cleanings really are your best insurance against problems that put your oral health in jeopardy.
