Our staff at the office of Dr. David Ostreicher want to know: Are you brushing your teeth twice a day during your treatment? If the answer is yes, that’s wonderful! But, don’t forget that it’s also important for you to visit your general dentist every six months in addition to brushing your teeth and flossing (and visiting Drs. Ostreicher or McAndrews, of course). An oral checkup is vital for maintaining good oral health for kids with and without braces.
Your general dentist can check for problems that might not be seen or felt, detect cavities and early signs of decay, treat oral health problems early and show you how to properly brush and floss your teeth during your treatment.
During an oral exam, the dentist can check the health of your mouth, teeth, gums, cheeks and tongue. Checkups will also include a thorough teeth cleaning and polishing. If you have not been to the dentist in the last six months, let us know during your next visit, and we will provide a few great references in Levittown or the greater Long Island area! Happy Monday!
