That depends on your insurance plan.  But generally speaking, I would aim for once every two years, or possibly once every six months if you are being particularly diligent about flossing and other cleanliness practices.

I don't have any insurance. Should that impact how often I go?

I’m afraid that’s the policy I recommend for all non-insured patients, not just those with low incomes.  You should also find a dentist in your area who will give you a good deal, or at least a good price.

But you said it "depends on your insurance plan"
