First of all, we have to say dentistry has improved over the last 20 years. Trust us, if you haven’t gone to the dentist in even a few years it will be a drastically different experience. Even if you do go to the dentist every six months, Tempe Dental Care prides itself on providing the best experience possible to all of our patients… we know many of our patients fear going to the dentist and we want to make the experience as pleasant as possible.
Dentists recommend regular six month visits to prevent expensive and painful dental problems. While not all problems can be prevented, with regular checkups they can be caught and fixed earlier – often before your tooth even starts hurting. And, any problems that may be found are much less expensive when found earlier than later.
Plus, if you have any dental fears or anxiety, coming in before you have problems or pain can help make your dental checkups easier.
