Everyone wants to have a healthy, beautiful smile that lasts a lifetime. In order to achieve the lasting smile you want, you need to visit your dentist twice a year in addition to your home oral hygiene routine. Semi-annual appointments with your dentist in Pea Ridge helps to ensure the health of your smile through regular cleanings and checkups. However, life tends to get busy, causing many to put their 6-month checkups on hold. As the end of the year approaches, now is the ideal time to use your insurance benefits to receive your dental cleaning and checkup. As you snack on the yummy goodies of Halloween, use it as a reminder to come in for a good cleaning to prevent tooth decay and gum disease.
Keep a Healthy Smile with a 6-Month Visit
In addition to brushing your teeth at home twice a day and flossing daily, you need to visit your dentist every 6 months. Regular appointments to your dentist help to prevent tooth decay and gum disease through a professional cleaning. Even with the best home oral hygiene routine, plaque and tarter become trapped between the teeth. When sugary foods, like Halloween candy, remain stuck between the teeth, a bacterial infection can develop, leading to gum disease. With a professional cleaning, we will remove the accumulations from between the teeth to prevent gum disease.
Your professional cleaning will be accompanied by a comprehensive dental exam. We will perform an extensive exam to evaluate your current oral health. With a regular checkup, we will detect areas of concern sooner to provide the appropriate treatment. As a result, you will require less invasive and less costly procedures in the future by restoring your oral health sooner.
Maximize Your Dental Insurance
Most dental insurance plans cover preventive care so you will pay little to no out-of-pocket costs. With the end of the year approaching, now is the perfect time to utilize your dental insurance to maximize its value. Using your remaining dental allowance for the year through your insurance carrier, you will receive the preventive care you need to start the new year off right with a bright, healthy smile.
To make dental care easy and affordable for our patients, we accept most major dental insurance plans, including Delta Dental Premier, Cigna, and BlueCross BlueShield. We will file the necessary paperwork on your behalf to ensure you maximize your available benefits.
To further assist you with your dental care, we also offer flexible payment options to help you pay for any remaining expenses not covered by your insurance.
