Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have any other questions? We have the answers. Call us at (503) 581-4615.

How often do I need to visit my dentist?

We recommend that you visit our Salem preventive dentist every 6 months. However, some patients may need to visit more frequently, such as those with a history of gum disease or frequent cavities.

I have gum disease — will a dental cleaning help?

If you have gum disease, your dentist may recommend scheduling a deep cleaning for another day. This procedure removes tartar buildup from beneath your gums, reducing inflammation and improving gum health.

Why is it important to visit my dentist if I don’t have any pain?

Even if you don’t have any pain or obvious dental problems, coming for checkups is very important. Many dental issues, such as cavities and gum disease, can develop slowly and may not cause any pain or discomfort until they are advanced. By visiting our Salem Preventive dentist every 6 months, we’ll be able to detect these problems early on and provide treatment before they become severe.
