Importance of Routine Dental Visits

At Vayner Family Dentistry, we believe preventive dentistry is essential to optimal oral health. For this reason, we recommend that all of our patients schedule routine dental visits so that they can have a thorough oral examination and professional dental cleaning periodically. Regular visits to your Fairfield dentist are an essential part of achieving and maintaining healthy teeth and gums.

Fairfield Dental Examinations

Although regular at home dental care is an essential part of achieving optimal oral health, it is very important to see your dentist for routine dental examinations. During these examinations, your dentist can not only check for dental complications but also for things such as oral cancer or even gum disease. During your dental examination at our Fairfield dental office you can expect:

• Examination of the gums
• Evaluation of gum disease risk factors
• Check for loose teeth
• Examination of the tongue
• Check your bite
• Tooth decay examination
• Check for damaged teeth
• Examine prior dental work
• Check for receding gums
• Examine any dental appliance
• Take digital images
• Check for oral cancer risk factors

Dental Cleanings in Fairfield

Along with routine oral examinations, dental cleanings can also be an extremely important part of achieving and maintaining optimal oral health. At our Fairfield dental practice, our patients can expect the following during their routine dental cleaning:

• Examination of teeth
• Examination of gums
• Thorough removal of bacteria, plaque, and tartar
• Polishing of teeth
• Thorough flossing of teeth
• Reviewing proper dental care techniques

Once your routine dental examination and cleaning have been completed, we will take time to discuss your oral health. If any issues are noticed, additional treatment options may be discussed. We will also discuss any recommendations for your at home dental care and any oral hygiene techniques you should be using.
