Many seemingly normal day-to-day activities can harm even the most hygienic mouth. Drinking coffee and tea stain teeth, while consuming sugary drinks and saccharine deserts can cause cavities within them. Smoking (even using smokeless tobacco) can lead to gum disease, root canals, or even tooth extractions. As a preventative measure, it’s important to schedule regular and routine dental check-ups at the office of Dr. Robert N. Petrtyl.

The Cincinnati, OH-based practice, including Dr. Petrtyl and his team of professional, friendly staffers, offers services ranging from general dentistry and pediatric dentistry to cosmetic and restorative dentistry. The practice is also fully equipped with the most cutting-edge technology to perform everything from basic fillings to more involved oral surgery and gum disease treatments. Dr. Petrtyl maintains that regular exams will reduce the risk for such work.

No matter how scary sitting in the reclining chair may be, teeth definitely feel smoother and stronger after a trip to the dentist’s office. Plaque builds up on teeth with every piece of food or drink we consume. Brushing your teeth twice-per-day, using dental floss after each meal, and rinsing nightly with fluoride-based mouthwash can only do so much. Getting your teeth cleaned annually at a dentist’s office is ultimately what prevents plaque from turning into cavities.
