Preventive Dental Care is Essential to Your Oral Health
The most important thing you can do for your oral health is take the necessary steps to prevent dental problems and diseases. Part of this is visiting the dentist every six months for a routine checkup. When you visit Dr. Wainwright, a local dentist in Lost Creek, TX, he will closely monitor your oral health.
Each routine dental appointment includes a full oral exam where you will be screened for tooth decay, gum disease, oral cancer, tooth damage, and bite problems. Once a year we will take x-rays to make sure there are no issues below the gums unless you are having problems. One of our highly trained dental hygienists will clean and polish your teeth at every visit.
As a family dentist, Dr. Wainwright treats patients of all ages including children. Caring for primary teeth, or baby teeth, is very important for your child’s oral development. Primary teeth help children learn to eat, speak, and create a path for their permanent teeth. Children should be seen as soon as their teeth begin to erupt and then every six months after that. The benefit of choosing a family dentist office is that we can treat every member of your family during one trip.
