Six months is the average interval between dental appointments for most people. That’s how often Abbett & Associates examines children’s teeth to ensure they’re growing in straight and strong, and we may suggest preventive measures like fluoride treatments and sealants. We’ll check each family member for cavities, tartar buildup, and the onset of gum disease. Significant evidence exists of a link between gum disease and such serious conditions as respiratory infections and chronic illness.
Did you know that the more teeth you lose, the greater your risk of stroke? And those ugly gaps disfigure your lovely smile. Ugh! In the 21st century, there’s no reason for most people to lose teeth as they age.
While you’re here, we may ask about the medications you’re taking or about lifestyle changes. We’re not being nosy, just trying to protect you and personalize your dental care. Although because you are part of our well loved extended family, we’d also like to hear of your most recent vacation.
Don’t put it off – call us for an appointment now at (541) 779-9059.
