Even with diligent brushing and flossing, skipping your bi-annual dental appointments can be risky business. Regular check-ups usually only take about an hour and can save you significantly more time and expense. Seeing the dentist every 6 months allows our team to catch small issues before they become big problems. Keep your smile healthy with preventive care.
DID YOU KNOW?
If you don’t floss, you’re leaving plaque on 40% of your tooth surfaces!
Why is preventive dental care important?
Preventive dental cleanings, also known as prophylactic cleanings, are the procedures you likely think of when you’re reminded of the dentist. They’re routine cleanings for patients with healthy gums. The American Dental Association recommends two cleanings per year for most patients. This gives our team a chance to remove plaque and tartar build up, so your smile can stay healthy and beautiful for longer.

"If I could give 100 stars, I would! My dad was seen today as a new patient and he was treated as family! Erika greeted us as soon as we walked in and helped him get checked in with no trouble. Brittney, amazing hygienist, was so kind, attentive, answered my dad’s questions, made sure he was comfortable throughout his cleaning and has hands of an angel because my dad did not feel any discomfort. Dr. Benavides, very kind, generous, professional and best bedside manners! If you are looking for a dentist, you have to schedule with Buena Vida Dental Studio! Thank you for taking great care of my dad."
