Take A Proactive Approach To Maintain A Healthy Smile
Fossum Family Dental Care offers several preventative dental services at our office in Richmond. You can read about some of our most common preventative services below, and be sure to make an appointment with us soon โ weโll help you keep your teeth in tiptop shape.
Checkups
We recommend dental checkups twice a year for patients with good oral health. This suggestion is in line with the American Dental Associationโs recommendation. Your checkup will give us an opportunity to update your dental records and assess your oral health. Early treatment is always in your best interest.
How We Can Help
An adult checkup may include these services::
- Dental X-rays
- Digital photos
- Tooth-by-tooth inspection
- Head and neck exam
- Occlusion/bite analysis
- Oral cancer screening
- Gum disease assessment
- Dental cleaning
- Treatment consultation
Children should begin attending bi-annual checkups by age 2 or 3. A childโs checkup is different from an adultโs in that we may not take X-rays or photos, and we will look for development problems. Children may not need a dental cleaning until age 3 or 4.
If you live in Richmond, Texas, and do not have an appointment scheduled, please reach out to us by calling 832-595-2266 orย sending us an email. Here at Fossum Family Dental Care, weโre excited to help keep you healthy and happy!
