Even during the summer when life is supposed to slow down and be more relaxed, there\u2019s still so much to do\u2014work, kids\u2019 activities, vacation planning, family gatherings and more. No wonder it\u2019s tempting to push off a few ordinary appointments, such as your visit to Hill Avenue Dental, your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hillavenuedental.com\/general-dentistry.html\">dentist in Superior, WI<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>You might figure that as long as you brush and floss every day and your teeth aren\u2019t bothering you, what\u2019s wrong with delaying your appointment. The father and son team of Dr. Doug Clark, Jr. and Dr. Doug Clark III want to encourage you to maintain scheduling six-month checkups, because the last thing you need to add to your busy schedule is dental treatment that could have been avoided if you\u2019d seen the dentist sooner.<\/p>\n<h2>Dental Cleanings with the Family Dentist in Superior, WI<\/h2>\n<p>Every six-month check up includes a dental cleaning. We trust that you do a good job of cleaning your teeth and gums during your oral hygiene care at home, but nothing can beat a professional cleaning. Our dental hygienists take the time and have special tools to clean the lingual, facial and biting surfaces of every tooth. When you brush, there are bound to be spots in your mouth that are more difficult to reach and clean. Not so when of our hygienists is at work.<\/p>\n<p>And in addition to flossing between your teeth to remove plaque, our hygienists remove bits of tartar. This somewhat yellow or brown substance is actually hardened plaque. Both plaque and tartar can lead to periodontal disease. The difference between these two, however, is that you can remove plaque with flossing, but tartar is only removable during a professional cleaning with your general dentist in Superior, WI.<\/p>\n<h2>Your Dental Exam in Superior, WI<\/h2>\n<p>The second portion of a dental checkup is the exam. The hygienist and Drs. Clark examine your teeth and gums for early signs of trouble. We\u2019ll probe each tooth, looking for soft spots that may indicate the beginning of a cavity. Found early, a tooth with decay can easily be restored with a tooth-colored filling. Similarly, we\u2019d much rather discover that you have gum disease during the early stage, which is called gingivitis. At this point, the effects may be reversible with a deep cleaning in our office and more stringent brushing and flossing at home. We\u2019ll also conduct an oral cancer screening during your dental exam.<\/p>\n<h2>Call Our Office Today<\/h2>\n<p>If you or another member of the family is due for a dental checkup, don\u2019t delay. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hillavenuedental.com\/contact-us.html\">Contact Hill Avenue Dental in Superior, WI<\/a>, for complete dental care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Life is busy.
