You need to see your dentist at least twice each year, and the same thing holds true for your little ones. Children have teeth too, so it’s important to keep them to a strict timeline of preventive visits. Since they don’t have the ability to truly understand the effects of their actions, they might be likely to go a little light with their brushing and flossing. Unfortunately, bacteria don’t give them much grace, so their biannual checkups really help them avoid cavities and periodontal disease. And this time of the year, it’s perfect for a spring cleaning.
Here at Dental Impressions of Ankeny, Dr. Amanda Foust, DDS, MAGD helps people to maintain and improve their oral health, and she knows the power of prevention. In the dental world, it’s best to avoid problems before they have a chance to occur, so she works with patients of all ages to keep them safe from tooth decay, gum concerns, and more. People young and old need to see their provider every six months for a cleaning and an examination, and we’re here to help with that.

How Long Has It Been, Actually?
If you’re having a tough time trying to remember, then your family is probably due for a visit. Most people, from the time they develop teeth onward, need to see their oral health team for a visit every six months. By taking the time for a checkup twice each year, your team can prevent a lot of problems.
So, when you find that it’s been longer than six months since your last dental appointment, take it as a sign to call your dentist. Your teeth are there for you each and every day. You can be there for them twice a year.
Keeping A Cleaner Smile Helps Them Stay Safe
You’re not the only one in your family who needs to see the dentist. If you’ve got children around, then they require consistent checkups, too. From the moment they begin to have teeth, bacteria are coming for them.
At their biannual checkups, they receive a cleaning alongside their visual examination. By removing plaque and tartar buildup, you help them avoid problems like tooth decay and gingivitis. Schedule their spring cleaning and examination to get them ready for the summer.
