No, it\u2019s not because we like wasting your time. In fact, we encourage our patients to visit us every 6 months as part of a <a href=\"https:\/\/carteryokoyamadds.com\/general\/\">preventive dentistry<\/a> routine. Just like you brush your teeth twice a day, we encourage the habit of visiting the dentist every 6 months to prevent cavities, tooth decay, and gum disease. Unfortunately, most adults begin to neglect their regular dental exams once they enter adulthood and their teeth begin to suffer. Find out if you\u2019re overdue for a dental exam in Kalaoa and then visit <a href=\"https:\/\/carteryokoyamadds.com\/\">Carter Yokoyama, DDS<\/a> for a dental examination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Don\u2019t Remember When\nYour Last Dental Exam Was<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the first signs that you\u2019re overdue for a <a href=\"https:\/\/carteryokoyamadds.com\/general-dentistry-overview\/\">dental exam<\/a> in Kalaoa is if you don\u2019t remember when your last dental exam was. Whether it has been years or decades since your last dental exam, it\u2019s never too late to schedule a trip to your favorite dentist. When you neglect a visit to the dentist for so long, it\u2019s possible for plaque and tartar to build up on your teeth, or for a cavity or gum disease to be present in your mouth. There can be a multitude of potential problems going on your mouth that you are unaware of because you don\u2019t visit the dentist regularly. In order to prevent problems and treat problems as they arise, make sure you visit your dentist regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Notice a Build Up of\nPlaque on Your Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another major sign that you are overdue for a dental exam in\nKalaoa is that you have noticed a build-up\nof plaque on your teeth. Plaque generally feels rough when you run your tongue\nover your teeth. This is primarily caused by\nimproper tooth brushing techniques. Without a trip to the dentist, the plaque\ncan turn into hard tartar which can then\nresult in a cavity, gum disease or infection. Not to mention, staining on your\nteeth. If you have noticed a build-up of\nplaque, please be sure to visit your dentist sooner than later. In addition,\nmake sure you are practicing proper brushing habits. Investing in a good\nelectric toothbrush can help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your Breath Doesn\u2019t Smell\nGreat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bad breath is a huge indicator that there is something wrong\ngoing on in your mouth. Halitosis can be caused by\na cavity, plaque, tartar, gum disease or infection in your mouth. If you have\nbad breath that you just can\u2019t shake, it\u2019s time to visit your dentist to figure\nout the root cause of your bad breath. A treatment plan will help you have\nfresh breath once again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Have Pain in Your Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The last sign that you\u2019re overdue for a dental exam in\nKalaoa is if you have any pain in your teeth. Pain can mean that you have a\ncavity or infection in your mouth. It can also be a sign that your tooth is\nbroken or has lost a filling. Visit your dentist regularly so that you never\nhave to experience severe tooth pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Schedule Your Next Dental\nExam in Kalaoa<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you overdue for a dental exam?
