Preventive dental care is the cornerstone of maintaining a healthy smile and overall well-being. It's about more than just avoiding cavities; it's about establishing a foundation for a lifetime of oral health. Regular dental checkups play a crucial role in preventing dental issues before they start, allowing for early detection and treatment of problems, which can save you time, discomfort, and expense in the long run.
Do I Really Need a Checkup Every Six Months?
Yes, regular checkups are key to preventing dental problems and maintaining optimal oral health. They allow us to catch issues early and keep your mouth healthy. It’s recommended for patients of all ages, including teenagers above the age of 13, and seniors.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dental checkup?
A dental checkup is a routine visit to your dentist, where your oral health is examined to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy. It typically includes a professional cleaning, an examination of your oral health, and, if necessary, digital X-rays to identify any underlying issues.
How often should I have a dental checkup?
Most dentists recommend having a dental checkup every six months. However, depending on your specific oral health needs, your dentist may suggest more frequent visits.
What should I bring to my dental checkup?
Please bring a list of any medications you are currently taking, your insurance card if you have dental insurance and any questions or concerns you may have about your oral health. If this is your first visit, also bring your previous dental records if available.
Will I get dental X-rays at every checkup?
Not necessarily. The frequency of dental X-rays depends on your individual oral health needs. Some patients may need X-rays once a year, while others with good oral health might only need them every couple of years. Dr. Schennel will recommend what's best for you.
What if I have cavities or other issues found during my checkup?
If Dr. Schennel identifies cavities or other oral health issues during your checkup, she will discuss your treatment options. We prioritize your comfort and health, ensuring you fully understand your condition and the proposed treatment plan.
How can I afford my dental checkups if I don’t have insurance?
Noble Dental believes in accessible dental care for all. We offer various payment options and financing plans to make dental care affordable for patients without insurance. Please contact our office to learn more about how we can accommodate your financial situation.
Can dental checkups detect signs of oral cancer?
Yes, dental checkups at Noble Dental include VELScope oral cancer screenings as part of our comprehensive approach to oral health. This quick and non-invasive screening can detect early signs of oral cancer, significantly increasing the chances of successful treatment.
Can dental checkups help prevent bad breath?
Yes, dental checkups can significantly help prevent bad breath by removing the plaque and tartar buildup that contribute to it. Regular cleanings also address the bacteria that can lead to persistent bad breath.
What should I do between each dental checkup?
Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and using mouthwash. Also, eat a balanced diet and avoid sugary snacks to help prevent cavities and gum disease.
