Healthy Smiles

Maintaining Good Oral Health

In most cases if your gums and teeth are healthy, the American Dental Association recommends 6 month check-ups. When there are gum problems, we will want to see you at shorter intervals, following the guidelines set forth by the American Academy of Periodontology. Your hygienist and the dentist will discuss this with you and tailor a program uniquely designed to meet your needs.

We keep track of your individual program in the computer and will send you a letter to confirm your check-up and professional cleaning about 3 weeks in advance. Please call our West Hartford dental office when you receive this notice to confirm the time that we have specially reserved for you. You can also email us at office@drsantiago.net.

In the event that any problems arise, please do not hesitate to contact us – we will happy to schedule an emergency appointment to take of your needs.
