You brush and floss daily. You eat a healthy diet. Why do you need teeth cleans?
Regarding long-term oral health, professional teeth cleans are your best friend! Your toothbrush and floss are great but must be used as PART OF prevention, never as the ONLY prevention.
Professional teeth cleans in Avondale lower your risks for:
- Periodontal disease and gingivitis is a serious oral health condition that can cost you your smile and general wellness.
- Recurring bad breath naturally occurs when plaque and bacteria linger on the teeth for extended periods.
- Oral infections can be excruciating, especially toothaches, and lead to an emergency dental visit.
- Tooth decay affects people of all ages. Cavities are not just for kids.
Your Smile Matters: About Professional Teeth Cleans
Dental cleans are the hallmark of prevention. Using special tools, your hygienist or oral health therapist carefully removes tartar and bacteria from hard-to-reach places, including between teeth. While your toothbrush and dental floss can remove surface plaque, these at-home dental tools cannot stand up to stubborn tartar. Nor can they reach the backs of teeth or penetrate tight nooks where teeth might be close together or slightly overlapping.
Your oral therapist or hygienist is also looking for gum recession and other issues to report to the dentist.
After your cleaning, we will discuss any suspicious findings with you and provide tips for at-home brushing and flossing techniques. We can also recommend products based on your oral health profile.
