An Important Reminder About Your Next Dental Appointment

Dentist in Bellingham, WA

Making your dental health a priority is essential for maintaining overall health and wellbeing. Despite our busy schedules, it’s important to schedule regular dental appointments and keep them. Our team understands that life can get hectic, which is why we work with you to find the most convenient appointment time for you.

Rescheduling appointments is understandable and we try our best to accommodate you. However, we greatly appreciate advanced notice when possible, as missed appointments without notice can be harmful to our practice. It’s important to remember that missed dental appointments can negatively impact your oral and overall health. Whether you’re receiving preventive or restorative care, neglecting professional treatment can lead to the progression of plaque and decay, and a decline in your oral health.

Some patients are more prone to oral health issues and may benefit from more frequent office visits. Investing in an extra cleaning each year can often prevent more costly concerns down the road. It may be tempting to skip a dental appointment and prioritize other activities, but maintaining a healthy smile significantly contributes to overall health.

We are committed to providing the best possible care and making your dental health a priority. If you have any questions about our practice philosophy or the care we provide, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Our team is here for you, and we look forward to seeing you at your next appointment.
