Dental Checkup

Why Dental Checkups Are Important

Regular dental visits help individuals prevent tooth loss. In fact, a study in Connecticut showed that because 74% of people regularly visited their dentist, tooth loss was only around 9%, a relatively low rate compared to many other states.

Additionally, regular dental care helps protect individuals from developing toothaches or serious oral infections. Failing to visit a dental professional tends to result in more cases of negative whole-body health including tooth decay, chronic illness, serious infections, and progressive gum disease.

What To Expect At Your Dental Check-Up

If you live in the Scottsdale area and you’d like to visit a compassionate dental office, we invite you to give us a call at (480) 607-6937 and schedule an appointment as soon as possible.

Our professional staff members pride themselves in treating patients with gentleness and individualized care. We do everything in our power to ensure that our patients experience comfortable, pain-free visits.

When you arrive, one of our technicians will take images of your teeth and gums to determine whether unseen infection or decay is a cause for concern.

In addition to standard examinations, cleanings, and cavity repair, our dentist, Kamran Fattah DMD, will carefully assess your holistic health and address any dental health concerns you may have. Should we identify an issue, we will discuss the treatment options available so that you can be certain that you’re well-informed about which path you can potentially take when it comes to your oral care.

Don’t Wait for Your Dental Checkup

We understand that it is often difficult to make time to see a dentist, but we do not recommend putting off a visit. It’s in your best interest to schedule a dental exam at least every six months even if you feel that your oral health is optimal.

Regular dental visits will address budding issues before they become serious, as well as allowing dental professionals to remove plaque and bacteria that grows on the surface of the teeth.

At Scottsdale Family Smiles, our goal is to treat our patients at the first sign of discomfort. If you’re experiencing a toothache or irritation in your gums, we welcome you to schedule an exam. If an issue arises, we can treat it to prevent the further development of pain and discomfort.

We make it simple to schedule dental checkups at our Scottsdale office. Simply call (480) 607-6937 and we will schedule you for the most convenient time possible.
