Ask Dr. Studebaker: Why are regular checkups so important?


Dr. Robert Studebaker and our staff want to know: Are you brushing and flossing daily properly during your orthodontic treatment? If the answer is yes, that’s wonderful! But, don’t forget that it’s also important for you to visit your general dentist every 3-to-6 months in addition to brushing your teeth and flossing (and visiting our office, of course). Regular dental checkups are important for maintaining good oral health, especially during orthodontic treatment.

Your general dentist can check for problems that might not be seen or felt, detect cavities and early signs of decay, treat oral health problems early and show you how to properly brush and floss your teeth.

During an oral exam your dentist can check the health of your mouth, teeth, gums, cheeks and tongue. Checkups will also include a thorough teeth cleaning and polishing. If you have not been to the dentist in the last six months, let us know during your next visit and Dr. Studebaker will provide a few great references in Spring, Klein, Tomball or The Woodlands! We hope you had a wonderful Labor Day weekend!
