Summer is finally in full swing—get ready for warmer weather, poolside shenanigans, and fun-filled days with those close to you. But no matter where you’re going or what you’ve got planned, you should consider kicking things off with a trip to your dentist’s office for a checkup and cleaning; believe it or not, there’s immense value in these appointments and they can help guarantee that your summer doesn’t end up being a bummer! Here are three reasons why.
Reason #1. Your Smile Will Look and Feel Fantastic
There are all kinds of photo opportunities during the summer: graduations, weddings, Fourth of July celebrations, vacations, and more. No matter your plans, you should want your smile to look and feel its absolute best; and your dentist can make this happen! During these visits, they’ll conduct a thorough dental examination and can easily treat any present issues using a variety of means.
Reason #2. There’s Plenty of Time During the Summer
Summertime occurs right in the middle of the calendar year, meaning that if you haven’t already, it’s the perfect time to schedule and attend one of your biannual dental visits—plus these are often fully covered by dental insurance! This also allows plenty of time for your dentist to start (and finish) any complex or lengthy procedures. Not to mention, many of us tend to enjoy a little extra downtime during the summer, whether it’s due to time off from classes or work. You should take advantage of this generous window and get your and your family’s checkups penciled in!
Reason #3. It’ll Protect You from Dental Emergencies
Did you know that preventing dental emergencies starts with visiting your dentist? While it’s not possible to prevent an emergency entirely, it’s worth noting that a healthy mouth is far less likely to encounter issues than one riddled with plaque and bacteria. During these examinations, your dentist can ensure that there aren’t any underlying issues that might threaten your well-being during the summer months, and if something is wrong, they can handle it with ease. When they send you on your way, they can also provide you with additional tips for safeguarding your smile.
