Regular Dental Checkups for Adults & Children in Lewiston
Ask any dentist and they will tell you that you should be seeing a dentist at least twice per year. In fact, most dental insurances are designed to cover these two yearly visits. No matter your age, you are never too old to see a dentist for a regular checkup. Dental checkups can help prevent larger dental issues by catching them when they are minor. A lot of dental issues can be prevented and even reversed if caught quickly. That is why every kid, teen, and parent should be seeing their dentist every 6 months.
Our Services
What Happens At A Dental Checkup & Exam?
At Joy Family Dentistry, we provide a variety of dental services at our regular checkups and exams. Contrary to popular belief, even if you or your child is a superstar at taking care of your teeth and gums, you still need to see a dentist regularly. Dentists have instruments and tools that can help remove plaque that mouthwash, brushing, and flossing simply can’t. When you schedule an appointment for yourself or your little one at our dental office in Lewiston we will provide a cleaning, an exam, and make sure you and your kids have everything you need to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Our hygienists will remove plaque, demonstrate proper brushing and flossing, and provide dental sealants & x-rays if needed. A dentist will then provide a dental exam to check for any early signs of decay or other issues.
