The advantages of regular checkups, from Kim Orthodontics

Granada Hills orthodontist Dr. Brian Kim wants to know: Are you brushing twice a day? If yes, that’s great to hear! But, don’t forget that it’s also vital for you to visit your dentist every six months (or as recommended) in addition to brushing your teeth and flossing (and visiting Kim Orthodontics, of course). Our team and Dr. Kim will tell you regular dental checkups are important for maintaining good oral hygiene.

During your checkup, your 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 general 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, please schedule an appointment or ask us for a recommendation - Dr Kim and our staff will be happy to provide a list of some great dentists in Granada Hills or San Fernando Valley!
