I am scheduled to go to my dentist this morning and I realized that I have just been at his clinic exactly two weeks ago for some cleaning. But I feel as if I need to get my teeth checked so I am visiting anyway. How about you? How often do you visit your dentist?

Hello Cherish, it's good to know that you don't have any problems with your teeth. I wish I could say the same thing, but since I am really big when it comes to sweet food, I need to be extra careful and visit my dentist regularly.

I get my teeth cleaned and checked for health every 6 months. It helps if you can get them checked and cleaned at the same time, so you don't have to keep making extra trips.

Hello rewardsinlife, I was also told that the ideal time for having your teeth clean and checked is every six month. Thank you for your tips.

Here they have a really good dental care system for students, so they have theirs checked and cleaned at least once a year. I'll try to maintain that once they finish year 12 because I think preventative dental care is very important. When we visit dentist only when we feel pain, that usually means we have dental problem already.
