Don’t Skip Out On Your Saskatoon Dental Check-Up!

No matter how much you dislike the dentist, putting off your dental check-up has consequences. Here are a few reasons why you should think twice before skipping your regular check-up. 

Advice 

Questions about your oral health? What better opportunity to ask than at your regular dental check-up. Dental professionals have the expertise necessary to address anything you might be concerned about. Missing an appointment won’t give you the opportunity to ask questions, and will only prolong your dental worries. 

Xrays 

Tooth x-rays allow dentists to look deeper than the surface to evaluate the oral health of their patients. Tooth Xrays can show tooth decay, abscesses, and other irregularities so that problems can be treated before they become too serious.  

Examination

Missing your regular dental checkup means missing out on a professional examination. Dental professionals have the expertise necessary to detect abnormalities. Skipping out on regular checkups can allow issues to progress unnoticed, which compromises oral health. 

Thorough Cleaning 

Dental checkups and dental cleanings go hand in hand. Though brushing and flossing are necessary oral health habits at home, they can only go so far. Dental professionals have the tools necessary to remove even the toughest plaque and tartar build-up. 

As much as we dread going to the dentist, skipping out on regular checkups is never a good idea. At Saskatoon Dental Group, we want you to like visiting our office, and aim to make your experience comfortable and worry-free. 

Remember that good oral health habits start at home and we encourage you to visit us once a year for a full checkup and examination. Oral health is closely tied to your overall health and wellness and often we can identify issues before they become problems.

We are always welcoming patients looking for a new dental family. If you would like to book a checkup or if you have any dental questions please do not hesitate to reach out to our team. We hope we fully explained why you shouldn’t skip your dental check-ups!

See you soon!
