Preventive dentistry is more commonly referred to as “dental cleanings” or “dental checkups.” The American Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) strongly urges all people in the United States to seek preventive care every six months. This includes children. By looking at patients mouths biannually, dentists can ensure that oral developmental diseases, tooth decay, gum disease, jaw issues, and even oral cancer are all caught early, requiring the most minimal possible treatment. Conroe dentist, Dr. John M. Richards is happy to provide a wide array of comprehensive dentistry services to patients in the area, including dental checkups.

Life without Preventive Care

If you decided to just blow off the dentist for years on end, there’s no doubt you would have to answer to some consequences for this cavalier decision. Preventive dental care isn’t a matter of money making for dentists. Quite the opposite. We hope to see you less often by maintaining the health of your beautiful smile. Of course, should you need more invasive treatments such as fillings, root canals, dental crowns, dental implants, or any number of services, we have you covered. The goal, however, is to help you keep your natural smile for your entire lifetime.

Using Technology

At Dental Center of Conroe, we employ the best possible technology in order to ensure your comfort, safety, and best possible results. We implement intraoral cameras which are designed to be miniscule in order to take pictures of your mouth in the most comfortable possible way. Dr. Richards is happy to talk you through the whole process, and let you see the images yourself. It is your mouth after all. We won’t just look at your mouth, but will delve inside of it with low-radiation dental x-rays. We can even take 3D images, if necessary. The more in depth we can get, the better chance we have of catching dental problems early.
