Top Reasons to See Your Dentist Twice a Year
1. Stop Plaque Before It Hardens
Plaque forms quickly and, if left untreated, hardens into tartar. Tartar buildup can lead to cavities and gum disease—issues that a professional cleaning can easily prevent.
2. Keep Gum Disease at Bay
Gum disease (periodontal disease) can develop quietly, showing little to no symptoms and is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. Routine exams allow us to catch and treat it early, protecting your gums and overall health.
3. Save Time and Money
Catching problems early, like small cavities or early-stage gum disease, prevents expensive and time-consuming treatments later.
4. Freshen Your Breath
Goodbye bad breath! Professional cleanings tackle bacteria buildup that brushing and flossing alone can’t fix.
5. Support Your Overall Health
Your oral health is directly linked to conditions like heart disease and diabetes. Regular dental care contributes to your overall well-being.
What Happens During Your Mikula DDS Checkup?
- Comprehensive Oral Exam: We’ll inspect your teeth, gums, and mouth, looking for early signs of potential issues, including oral cancer.

Why Biannual Visits Are Better Than Annual Checkups
Six months is the sweet spot for maintaining your oral health. Here’s why:
- Catch Problems Before They Escalate: Issues like gum disease can worsen quickly, making early detection crucial.
- Stay Ahead of Stains: Regular cleanings prevent discoloration, keeping your smile bright year-round.
- Enjoy Long-Term Savings: Preventive care is far more affordable than restorative treatments.
