Frequently Asked Questions
Most patients should see their dentist in Zachary, LA, every six months for routine cleanings and checkups. However, your specific needs might call for more frequent visits, and that's perfectly normal.
Dental Frequency Visits Vary
Your oral health is as unique as you are. Some patients benefit from quarterly visits, especially if they have:
- Gum disease or a history of periodontal issues
- Diabetes or other health conditions affecting oral health
- A tendency toward cavities or plaque buildup
- Orthodontic appliances requiring extra monitoring
What Happens During Routine Checkups?
- Comprehensive Cleanings — Our experienced hygienists remove plaque and tartar that daily brushing can't reach.
- Thorough Examinations — Dr. Morris uses digital x-rays and an intraoral camera to catch potential issues early, when they're easier and less expensive to treat.
- Personalized Prevention — We'll discuss your home care routine and make recommendations tailored to your lifestyle and risk factors.

Regular visits aren't just about preventing cavities. They help us spot early signs of gum disease, oral cancer, and other conditions that could impact your overall health. Plus, there's something to be said for that fresh, clean feeling you get after a professional cleaning.
