Well, I believe no dentistry is the best dentistry. If we can maintain our own God-given natural teeth in the best shape until we hit 100, people are living to 100 plus these days. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. So I am all for just coming in for routine checkups, keeping it easy, everybody’s happy, in and out, you know, just maintain things. That’s what we’re here for. My team does a great job in, like, reminding you for your dental checkups, you know, we’ll text, emails. They sincerely care to get you in. We all know everybody gets busy and a little reminder from the dental team to come in for your cleaning and your annual checks is very helpful. I think we do a good job of that.
