The Benefits of Family Dentistry
Family dentistry can greatly benefit a busy family, whether they have children which range in age, only toddlers, or teenagers in high school. Generally, family dentists like Dr. James Bonny work with all age groups, from your child's first dental examinations to adjusting Grandma’s dentures. Since a family dentist works with people of all ages, the whole family can attend appointments at the same practice. This could save you a trip by scheduling you and your child’s dental appointments on the same day, make record keeping easier or even save you from taking additional time off work or school. Additionally, family dentists grow with you and your children, allowing your kids to form a relationship with their dentist from their first appointment into adulthood.

Most people should see their dentist at least once every six months for an examination and cleaning. Committing to these bi-annual appointments allows your dentist to spot and treat problems before they start, saving you time, money and even a toothache in the process. Additionally, twice yearly cleanings keep decay-causing plaque and tartar off of your teeth, preventing tooth decay and gum disease. Brushing twice a day and flossing at least once keeps your teeth healthy between your appointments.
