The Things Your Smile Really Needs (And Doesn’t)

There are most certainly some things that your smile needs. As you know, within the world of dental care, the goal is always to do what you can to encourage a healthy smile. Without smile health, you have illness, which leads to all sorts of damage, discomfort, and more. Then, beyond those needs are your wants, which are not essential. Do you know what’s what? If not, you may realize that you feel turned around and upside down in regard to how to maintain an efficient smile schedule. You may also wonder how to fit your hopes and dreams in with the rest of the mix. Let us assist! Our Conroe, TX team is always ready to help you better understand best practices!

What Your Smile Needs For Maintenance

You may ask yourself what your smile really requires in order to keep it up, so it can stay healthy and pretty without issue. Here’s the very easy approach that you can follow now and for the rest of your life:

  • Preventive dental care is the backbone of smile maintenance.
  • Prevention at home includes your daily dental hygiene, which further breaks down into brushing twice daily and flossing once daily
  • Prevention with us includes your twice-a-year visits for a checkup and cleaning each time!

What Your Oral Health Needs If Problems Arise

While your maintenance will generally take care of most of your dental care needs, there’s always the chance for an issue here and there. Sometimes, you’re taking excellent care of your smile but you accidentally fall or eat something harder than you expect, for instance, and break a tooth! What to do? If problems arise, you need to schedule another visit. We will most likely recommend restorative care. If you follow through with it, your smile will be healthy again.

Figuring The “Other Stuff” Into The Equation

All of the other stuff that does not affect your oral health includes the things you want for your smile, which is generally going to mean cosmetic dental care. Ask yourself what you aren’t liking and report to us with the details during your next appointment. Once we have all of the information and your smile is in good health, we can suggest treatments that help you achieve your smile goals!
