Professional Dental Checkups and Cleanings
Why Professional Dental Care Is Important?
Regular visits to a dental clinic help keep teeth clean and maintain good oral hygiene:
-
Prevent dental decay, gum disease, and tooth loss
-
Good jaw health and a straight bite can prevent headaches and discomfort
-
Boost your confidence
Periodontal disease affects the gums, ligaments, and bone structures supporting your teeth. The hygienist will look for and remove any plaque or tartar build-up, and then Dr. Clancy will do a thorough exam to see if there are any signs of periodontitis which are generally the cause of periodontal diseases. Plaque is the transparent, sticky material that accumulates on your teeth and can be removed by frequent brushing and flossing. Plaque that hardens into tartar needs to be removed by a dental hygienist through scaling.
Periodontal Screening
Preventative Dentistry
Dental cleanings and examinations prevent dental issues before they become serious. Regular checkups and cleanings assist in keeping teeth and mouth healthy for life. A solid home care routine must be reinforced with an evaluation at least every six months for maximum benefit. Depending on the state of your dental health, your dentist may advise you to visit more frequently.
