Typically, dental recall appointments (checkups) should be scheduled every 6 months.  During this visit, a cleaning will be performed along with a dental exam and x-rays.  This cleaning, exam, and x-ray appointment will ensure that problems are prevented before they become larger issues.  Occasionally, a patient may be scheduled on a more frequent recall schedule, such as every 3 or 4 months.  This ensures that oral health is maintained and that a patient reaches a consistent level of good oral health.  Our office will be happy to schedule an appointment for your cleaning and we will send you appointment reminder cards via mail to help you stay on your regular recall interval.
