The American Dental Association recommends you see your dentist at least twice each year for a checkup. At your checkup, Dr. Calderwood will inspect your soft tissues for oral cancer, periodontal disease, and other problems. He will also look at each tooth in your mouth to assess problems like tooth decay or cracks as well as old dental work. Sometimes, old dental work wears out and needs to be replaced. He will be happy to update metal fillings, inlays, onlays, and crowns with tooth-colored alternatives. Through our thorough and gentle approach, we can spot any issues like small fractures and foreign debris typically missed by regular brushing and make sure your smile stays healthy for a healthier you!
Prevention is the Best Medicine
By looking for easily missed issues that may lead to decay and other harmful bacteria every six months, we can often reduce your potential for large dental problems. For instance, left untreated, a small cavity can grow to destroy an entire tooth and spread to the surrounding teeth. A cracked tooth can cause pain or completely break off and create additional problems. Furthermore, advanced gum disease is the primary cause of tooth loss for American adults, and oral cancer causes more than 10,000 deaths each year. Caught and treated early, these diseases can easily be controlled. We pride ourselves on being able to provide that peace of mind, and with our friendly dental office in Park City, UT, you can rest easy knowing you’re in great hands.
Peace of Mind with Proactive Care
While preventing problems and enjoying the benefits of a healthy smile are important, regular dental checkups at Park City Dentistry also provide something equally valuable: peace of mind.
Think of it this way: wouldn't you rather catch a small cavity when it's easily treatable, rather than waiting until it develops into a painful toothache requiring a more extensive procedure? Regular visits with Dr. Calderwood offer you the reassurance that any potential issues are identified and addressed promptly, saving you time, discomfort, and potentially even money in the long run.
If you have not scheduled a checkup lately, be sure to call us to make your appointment! Children as young as two should visit the dentist, and by age four or five, a child should attend regular checkups. It’s a life-long habit worth keeping!
