How Often Should You Visit Dr. Scurti for Regular Care?

The question of how often to see a dentist for care is a common one. Should you do it once a year, like you would a primary care doctor, or should you go more often than that?

At Verona Dental Arts, we recommend that patients of Dr. Scurti come in twice a year for a checkup and professional dental cleaning. Why so often? Because that’s what it takes to provide patients with effective preventive care.

During every checkup at his Verona dental office, Dr. Scurti will look for signs of the most common oral health issues, like tooth decay and gum disease, plus teeth grinding, TMJ dysfunction, and even oral cancer. Diagnosing conditions like these early is important for protecting the long-term health of teeth. With regular checkups every six months, Dr. Scurti can address any developing problems quickly, saving you time and money, plus adding to the life of your natural smile.

Dental cleanings will also help as they give us an opportunity to remove excess bacteria and plaque from above and below the gum line. If you have questions about how to brush and floss more effectively between visits, our Verona dental team will be more than happy to answer them.
