Why do you have this? It\u2019s probably an easy question to answer: Regular oil changes keep your car running smoothly and save you from having to get expensive repairs. The exact same can be said for regularly seeing your dentist in University Park. Routine check-ups and cleanings are some of the most basic and essential ways you can keep your teeth healthy year-in and year-out. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allisonfowlerdds.com\/dr-allison-fowler.html\">Dr. Allison Fowler<\/a> wants you to know exactly why they are so important.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Why Cleanings and Check-Ups Are Essential<\/h2>\n<p>If you are consistently brushing and flossing your teeth, you probably think you are taking very good care of them, and in fact, you are! However, your teeth are very complicated structures with many small, hard to reach surfaces. This is especially true when talking about the back teeth. Many of these areas are simply inaccessible with your brush and floss. In addition to that, many people either miss or completely forget to clean along the gum line. This can lead to gum disease, which is actually <a href=\"http:\/\/www.efp.org\/patients\/what-is-periodontitis.html\" target=\"_blank\">the leading cause of tooth loss for patients 35 and over<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In order to take care of these problem areas, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allisonfowlerdds.com\/preventive-dentistry.html\">you need to regularly see Dr. Fowler<\/a>. You\u2019ll be able to get a professional dental cleaning that will completely eliminate plaque from those hard to reach places. Dr. Fowler\u2019s team has the special tools and training to clean your teeth in ways you simply can\u2019t at home. Not only will this help your teeth stay healthy, but it will keep them beautiful as well.<\/p>\n<p>This also gives Dr. Fowler a chance to examine your teeth and gums, which is important for a few reasons. Many dental issues, including tooth decay and gum disease, develop very slowly and can be hard to see in their initial stages. It\u2019s very easy for you to not notice them. Her trained eyes will be able to spot signs of these conditions early. This will allow her to use more conservative treatments that can save you time and discomfort in the dentist\u2019s chair. The sooner a problem is spotted, the easier it is to treat.<\/p>\n<p>It is recommended that you get check-ups and dental cleanings in University Park at least twice a year, and this is a small ask to maintain both your oral health and appearance. Two quick and easy visits are all you need to have a gorgeous smile that you never have to worry about. That is certainly worth 2 hours of your time over the course of 12 months.<\/p>\n<h2>Any Questions?<\/h2>\n<p>We want your smile to be healthy for years, and the best way we can assure that is with regular check-ups and cleanings every 6 months. It\u2019s all you need to have a smile you\u2019re always proud to show off.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to know more about how we can help your teeth or want to schedule an appointment, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allisonfowlerdds.com\/contact-us.html\">please give us a call today<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You probably have a little sticker on your car\u2019s windshield that reminds you when you need to change the oil.
