Acton Dentist
If you want to make sure that your teeth and gums stay healthy, you will want to visit our dentist for regularly scheduled dental checkups. Having healthy gums and teeth will not only make sure that your mouth stays healthy, but it can even have an impact on your overall health. If gum disease infection is present in your mouth, it can travel through your bloodstream to other parts of your body and cause serious health problems including heart problems, and high blood pressure. It is much easier to simply come to see our
Acton dentist for periodic dental checkups, to make sure that your smile stays beautiful and your mouth stays healthy.
At our dental practice, Dr. Vidya Reddy, our expert and highly trained
Acton dentist is Dr. Vidya Reddy. Dr. Reddy thoroughly enjoys working with patients of all ages, and welcomes everyone into her practice from children to seniors. When you have your first dental checkup at our office, our dentist will establish your oral health baseline. You will have a complete oral exam which will include a complete periodontal evaluation, an oral cancer screening, a bite analysis, and a thorough examination of your teeth and mouth. Of course the health of your gums will also be closely reviewed. If it is determined that you have gingivitis, a precursor to gum disease it will most likely be recommended that you have several dental cleanings over the coming months so that your gums will be able to get back on the road to good health.
Our
Acton dentist will probably recommend that you come in for periodic dental checkups every six months – possibly more frequently if you already have an existing gum problem or if you have a medical condition which can affect your gum health. Dental checkups will not only make sure that your teeth and gums stay healthy, but dental checkups are also cost-effective. This is because it is generally much easier and less expensive to treat a dental problem while it is in the early stages. For example, if you are diagnosed with a simple cavity, treatment will be much simpler than if you wait until the decay has reached the center of your tooth and you need to have a root canal procedure. Aside from having dental checkups by our dentist, it will also be recommended that you come into our practice for periodic dental cleanings. Having regular dental checkups and dental cleanings will go a long way toward ensuring that you have beautiful teeth, healthy gums, and a healthy mouth.
