Getting A Teeth Cleaning
Everyone strives to maintain clean and healthy teeth, but there’s no substitute for a professional dental cleaning.
Dental prophylaxis, the technical term for teeth cleaning, is designed to thoroughly clean your mouth in areas your toothbrush and floss struggle to reach. The benefits of teeth cleaning include:
- Plaque removal – Despite diligent brushing and flossing, it’s challenging to eliminate all plaque and debris from your gums and teeth. Our specialized hygienists utilize various dental instruments to clean and remove any plaque buildup.
- Healthy gums – Gums that don’t receive regular professional cleanings are prone to pain, bleeding, and gum disease. Biannual teeth cleanings help protect against gum disease, resulting in healthier and stronger gums.
- Improved oral health – After your teeth cleaning, you’ll leave with a cleaner, whiter smile. You may also notice fresher breath as old bacteria and plaque are removed.
Patients who have their teeth cleaned every six months are less likely to experience dental health problems such as gum disease, tooth decay, or other oral illnesses. Issues like gingivitis and cavities can be detected early at these appointments and ultimately prevented, saving you from oral discomfort and keeping your teeth in optimal condition. In the United States, one person dies from oral cancer every hour. A thorough cleaning at our office could identify early signs and facilitate more manageable treatment steps than if the cancer were discovered later. Additionally, stubborn stains that discolor your teeth can be removed, leaving you with a bright smile once again!
