Oral health maintenanceYour smile takes effort to keep at a high level, and when you go a little light on your brushing and flossing, it puts your smile at risk. Both you and other people will be able to tell, too, as bacterial buildup can leave a nasty taste in your mouth. Plaque and tartar can also cause tooth decay, periodontal disease, and more, so it’s important to stick to your oral health maintenance routine. If it’s been longer than six months since your last dental checkup, then you’re past due.

Our team at Riverside Dental Group understands that your smile is an essential part of who you are. That’s why we work so hard to help people in our community to receive quality care to keep them on the right oral health maintenance path. For most people, the goal is to come in twice each year for a cleaning and examination, so if you still have not had one in 2025, then you’re falling behind. Take this opportunity to bring yourself up to speed.

Consistency Is Key In Oral Health Maintenance

Bacteria are always in your mouth, waiting for you to slip up. Keeping up with your smile is a lifelong endeavor, meaning that you need to brush your teeth twice a day, every day. When you go a little light on your brushing and flossing, bacteria can start to leave little reminders of their presence.

This buildup starts as plaque, but if it’s left, it hardens into a tougher form. At this point, you can no longer safely remove it on your own. You need the help of a trained dentist or dental hygienist to clean your smile.
