How to Avoid Frequent Dental Visits, and When They are Necessary
By The Wave Agency
Properly keeping track of, and maintaining your oral hygiene is the best way to keep your dental visits to a minimum. Brushing twice daily is often recommended, or most, such as between meals. Flossing is an often overlooked aspect of dental hygiene and is by most professional accounts one of the most important things you can do at home to prevent cavities and foster gum health.
It is often up to your dentist as to how often you should be coming in. They are able to properly assess your health, and can judge the time between cavities (or if you’ve had any cavities at all). It is even possible for your checkups to be reduced should you prove to your dentist that oral hygiene is a priority and is showing positive results.
At the end of the day, those who dread the dentist (which is often an unfounded fear built upon by anxiety) may be those who are least likely to show up to the appointments. If you are one of those who fears dental visits, know that environment as well as your own oral hygiene will matter most. State of the art offices that emphasize patient comfort, such as with e.s.i.

It is highly important to follow your dentist’s advice. It can affect your overall oral hygiene, and give you a smile that you’re proud of. This includes when your dentist expects you to visit again. They will be your best judge as to appointment frequency.
