Professional Dental Cleanings and Exams
Prevention is Better than Cure.
Professional Dental Cleanings
Professional Dental Cleanings are important. Despite regular cleanings at home, bacteria and calculus will still accumulate on your teeth. Bacteria cause dental decay and periodontal disease (gum disease). The goal of professional dental cleanings is to prevent Gum Disease.
Professional dental cleanings clean the areas you are unaware of or unable to clean adequately to remove plaque and calculus. And help to keep your teeth looking their best with a polish to remove stains.
Dental Examinations
Your teeth and gums exist behind a curtain of lips. It’s easy to hide your teeth from yourself, but not from others.
A dental examination will reveal dental diseases or structural problems in your mouth. Examinations can also detect dental problems early to keep costs down and teeth healthier. Don’t wait for a sign like pain or a broken tooth. Prevention is better than cure.
Dental examinations and professional dental cleanings should be done every 6 months.
