Well, nothing hurts, you say. Okay, that\u2019s good. You can chew, you can talk, and your smile is attractive. Those are all good signs. Nevertheless, you still need to have regular dental checkups, so Dr. Sheri McIntosh and the team at Distinguished Dental will not only look for concerns that may be developing, but also clean and polish your teeth for the ultimate smile. And for new patients from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.distinguished-dental.com\/contact.html\">Keller, TX<\/a>, and the surrounding communities, we currently offer cleaning, exam and x-rays at the reasonable rate of only $59 for children and $99 for adults. So, if not having insurance has kept you from the dentist, that obstacle has been removed with this affordable offer.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>In Keller, Dental Cleaning is the Assurance of Good Oral Health<\/h2>\n<p>You carefully brush and floss your teeth twice a day every day. And while that is indeed the foundation of you and your family\u2019s excellent oral health, the dental cleanings we provide in our office are your assurance that your teeth and gums are in the best condition possible. When you come to Distinguished Dental for a cleaning and exam, one of our dental hygienists will professionally clean your teeth in order to remove any stuck-on debris, as well as plaque. Plaque is a sticky film that develops in your mouth throughout the day. Although your daily brushing and flossing do remove plaque from the surface of your teeth as well as in between and below the gum line, there\u2019s nothing like a professional cleaning to leave your smile feeling polished, smooth and bright.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond this cleaning, a dental checkup gives Dr. McIntosh the opportunity to inspect your teeth and gums for signs of decay or periodontal disease. In their early stages, neither one of these conditions necessarily present with symptoms you can readily see or notice because of discomfort. However, a professional eye in combination with our state-of-the-art dental technology can detect problems early. And the earlier we find a concern, the earlier we can recommend and begin appropriate treatment, so little problems don\u2019t become bigger and more costly problems.<\/p>\n<p>Another hidden concern that we check for during each six-month exam is oral cancer. Fortunately, this cancer is highly treatable and curable. The secret, of course, is early detection, making your regular checkups important not only to your oral health, but your general health and well-being, too.<\/p>\n<h2>Schedule an Appointment Today at your Keller Dental Office<\/h2>\n<p>If the time has come for you or a member of your family to see Dr. McIntosh and team at Distinguished Dental for a six month checkup, then call our office today and speak to one of our friendly staff. Our\u00a0practice\u00a0welcomes patients from surrounding areas including Roanoke, Haltom City, Fort Worth, Westlake, and Southlake.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How\u2019s your oral health?
