Are you visiting your dentist regularly?

Dr. Danny Weiss wants to know: Are you brushing your teeth twice a day during your orthodontic treatment? If the answer happens to be yes, we think that’s great! But, it’s also important for you to visit your general dentist in Memphis or Millington every six months in addition to brushing your teeth and flossing (and visiting Weiss Orthodontics, of course). Regular dental checkups are important for maintaining good oral health.

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 an oral exam your 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 Dr. Weiss or one of staff members know during your next visit and we will provide a few great references in the greater Memphis or Millington area! Happy Friday and have a wonderful weekend! :)
