When was your last dental check-up? Come on, be honest.

If it was more than a year ago, you should really consider scheduling an exam, well... right now.

Did you know that more than 1 in 4 adults in the United States have untreated tooth decay? And it's not really about having those cavities filled and stains removed for a brighter smile. A growing body of research suggests that poor oral health is directly related to many chronic conditions, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cognitive decline. Yes, it's as bad as it sounds. Also, putting off your dental exam can result in significantly more expensive and invasive treatment a few years later.

If you're in Bellaire, Westchase, Briar Forest, or Chinatown, call Dentist 101 of Houston. It's a family clinic, so you can go there yourself, or take your toddler and your grandma! Their team strives to create a comfortable atmosphere for a relaxing visit even for those patients who suffer from dental anxiety. Also, their dentists speak English, Chinese, and Spanish.

The clinic is led by Dr. Jessica Su, DMD, a graduate of the Temple University School of Dentistry and an expert in all aspects of adult and pediatric general dentistry.

Their preventive care includes check-ups and deep cleaning. During a check-up one of the clinic’s dentists will examine your teeth to identify cavities and gum disease. In some cases, an X-ray may be needed to detect cavities between your teeth that may not be visible.

The dentist will then use specialized tools to thoroughly clean your teeth and remove the plaque and tartar buildup that cannot be effectively eliminated at home. This is followed by polishing and professional flossing. The clinic explains that in addition to its esthetic benefits, dental cleaning allows the dentist to detect potential problems early and prevent more invasive and expensive treatment.

In case you have tooth decay, excessive sensitivity, gingivitis, or any other symptoms, the dentist will devise a personalized treatment plan to restore both the functionality and appearance of your teeth. Dentist 101 offers a full range of cosmetic and restorative treatments, including fillings, root canals, crowns and bridges, implants, and braces.

A happy patient said, “I visited Dentist 101 multiple times during the last 2 months doing a deep cleaning, a root canal, two crowns, one bridge and several fillings, and Dr. Su and her assistants accomplished each item perfectly and made each of my visits enjoyable. The front desk is super nice and helpful as well. It's well worth the money. My life is back.”

Your beautiful new smile is just a phone call away!
