Teeth for Life

 

Practicing good oral hygiene means maintaining your smile by visiting the dentist regularly and taking care of your teeth and gums between checkups. Tri-Cities Center for Cosmetic Dentistry wants to make sure that you get the most out of your office visits, and that your teeth stay healthy for life! We'll work with you to provide complete dental care, and show you how to maintain your smile at home with the right dental products for you and your family.

Dental Cleanings and Regular Checkups

Regular dental checkups are an important part of maintaining your oral health. During your regular checkup, your hygienist will:

  • Oral Cancer Exam
  • Look for cavities or any other signs of tooth decay
  • Inspect your teeth and gums for gingivitis and signs of periodontal disease
  • Check fillings for leaks or cracks
  • Check for loose teeth or shifting or drifting of teeth
  • Check bite for wear or TMD problems
  • Evaluate Cosmetic issues
  • Provide a thorough teeth cleaning, rinse, and polish

Visiting the dentist every six months gives you the chance to talk with Dr. Sanders and receive answers for any questions you may have about your oral health. Checkups are also a great way for you to find out about new treatments that may benefit your smile.

Choosing the Right Toothpaste and Toothbrush

From toothpaste and mouthwash to toothbrushes and dental floss, it's important to choose the right products for your smile. Keep in mind that when you're looking for a new toothpaste or toothbrush, be sure to choose one that has been approved by the American Dental Association (ADA). Dr. Sanders recommends prescription fluoride toothpase for use at home. We offer Clinpro®, Fluoridex®, or Prevident® toothpase for purchase in our office. We also offer the Phillips Sonicare™ Diamond clean.
