At Today’s Dental Comfort, we try to do all we can to ensure that you and your family have lasting and long-term health. One way that this can occur is with routine oral hygiene examinations and cleanings. Most patients should visit our office every six months for a routine appointment. If you have a certain dental condition, such as gum disease, we may recommend visiting more often.
We don’t know how you feel, but we are thrilled that spring has finally arrived. Spring cleaning is a popular term that describes a deep cleaning, especially in your home, during this season.

When was the last time you and your loved ones visited our office for a hygiene examination and cleaning? If it has been longer than six months, then you are due for a visit!

Although we typically give the jawbone very little thought, it holds your entire mouth together. The jawbone creates the guide for your face shape and holds all of your teeth in place.
Between appointments in our office, it is important to be mindful of the state of your teeth. You should be regularly inspecting your teeth and gums for changes or signs that there might be a problem with your oral health. This can be done visually by looking in your mouth for any indication of a problem. You may also be able to feel changes to your teeth by running your tongue along each one. If you notice or feel any changes, it is important to contact our office immediately. One complication that needs immediate attention is a cracked tooth. Read on to learn more.

We love to help our patients of all ages improve their smiles and restore their teeth.
