Last week the NewYork Times published an article announcing that a dental visit 2-times per year
may not be the right for everyone.
Using research that
compared dental visits per year with lost teeth, the article reports that
dental preventative visits should be based around your risk for cavities and
gum disease. Like other dentists, I shudder when I hear blanket recommendations
about healthcare practices, but I think this article has one very
important take-away:
Healthcare is
personal!
Your annual dental
visits should be arranged for your needs and with the treatment philosophy of your dentist. Ask your dentist to help you
understand why you should be seen bi-, tri-, whatever- annually.
Thanks to the New
York Times for bringing this topic to light, but please do not misinterpret the
findings and think you don't need a regular dental check-up and cleaning.
Every time when I think that my teeth is clean my dentist will clean out all the plaque I don't realize. I'm excited that now I have my own dental mirror I can be more "proactive" in my brushing. family dentist
