Most people do well with a checkup and cleaning every six months. Some people need to come more often, for example with a history of gum disease, and your dentist will tell you if that's you.
Most people feel some pressure and mild discomfort at most. Sensitive teeth or inflamed gums can make it less comfortable, so say so during the cleaning and the hygienist can adjust.
Call right away: a tooth seen within an hour has the best chance of being saved. Hold it by the crown, not the root, rinse it gently without scrubbing, and keep it in milk on the way. For heavy bleeding or a head injury, call 911.
Bleeding gums are often an early sign of gum inflammation from plaque along the gumline. Gentle brushing twice a day and daily flossing often help within a couple of weeks. If the bleeding doesn't stop, book a visit so it can be checked.
Sensitivity to hot, cold or sweet things can come from worn enamel, exposed roots, a cavity or a cracked tooth. A toothpaste made for sensitive teeth helps many people, but sensitivity that lasts or gets worse is worth having looked at.
The American Dental Association recommends a first visit by a child's first birthday, or within six months of the first tooth. Early visits are short and mostly about getting comfortable.
