But the consequences of skipping these visits can be huge &#8212; from serious toothaches that require complex treatment to chronic gum disease that is costly to treat, tooth loss, and much more. So while you may feel like you are saving yourself money or protecting yourself from discomfort now, the cost of delaying treatment could be far greater in the long run. <\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What to Expect from a Checkup and Cleaning<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don\u2019t have to do anything special to prepare for a checkup and cleaning &#8212; just show up and get ready to relax while you make your way to improved oral health. During the cleaning, your hygienist will thoroughly remove plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth and around the gum line. They will also monitor your periodontal health and determine whether or not you require gum disease treatment. <\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once your dentist is ready to begin the checkup, they will carefully evaluate each one of your teeth. They are looking out for existing cavities, weak spots which could turn into cavities later on, worn out dental work, and other issues. If X-rays have been taken, the dentist will also look closely at these to identify any problems that could be lurking beneath the visible surface. <\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After this visit is complete, your next visit will be scheduled for as soon as is necessary given your particular oral health needs. For most people, that means in 6 months! <\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get Back on Track this Month<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No matter how much time has passed since your last dental appointment, it\u2019s not too late to recommit to your smile! Your dentist will never make you feel guilty for letting your hygiene habits slide &#8212; the most important thing is that you are taking the necessary steps for smile health right now. Don\u2019t hesitate to get in touch with your family dentist for a checkup and cleaning this month! You\u2019ll be saving yourself time, money, and stress later on when you do. <\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meet the Practice<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benchmark Family Dental offers comprehensive dental care from the comfort of a state-of-the-art practice in Copperas Cove, TX.
