Why are checkups recommended every six months, even when nothings wrong?
In a checkup, Dr. Engelsberg looks for potential problems. This can include oral cancer lesions, early signs of gum disease, cracked or chipped teeth, tooth decay, and function problems, among others. Early detection allows for early treatment, which means less invasive dentistry. Regular checkups can save you time and money, in addition to preserving your natural tooth structure and optimal oral health.
