Protection Offered By Dental Cleanings

How safe are you from cavities and gum disease? If you have a thorough oral hygiene routine that you follow on a daily basis, you can feel less concerned about these problems. However, you should not feel as though you only need to worry about your daily practice if you want to keep your smile safe from harm. At our Seattle, WA dentist’s office, we can provide support through consistent dental cleanings and examinations. Evaluations provide important feedback about your smile, and they can alert you when there are issues that need in-office care. Cleanings protect you against future problems. This service will remove tartar buildup, something you are not able to do by yourself and something that can lead to more significant oral health issues when not dealt with in a proper manner.

Your Regular Dental Exams Help You Prevent Oral Health Issues

Routine dental visits offer both feedback and protection. Regular reviews are important for updating you about your oral health because you can have problems before you actually realize that something is wrong. Your cleanings offer a degree of support that exceeds what you can do with brushing and flossing alone. Standard cleanings fight tartar deposits, which resist your efforts at removal through brushing and flossing; when appropriate, we can recommend more advanced cleanings that target active problems with gum disease.

Dental Cleanings And Tartar Buildup

As tartar deposits form, they create more vulnerability to issues with dental decay and gum disease. They also create potential problems with your appearance that can make you self-conscious. You have the ability to stop this substance from forming, as you can remove plaque buildup before they become a problem. However, you will not be able to take on the matter yourself once tartar deposits are present. That's where we come in! Our dental hygienists are skilled at cleaning teeth and thoroughly removing tartar buildup before it becomes a problem.

Cleanings Between Regular Appointments

If you want to avoid problems that require advanced periodontal cleanings and restorative dental work such as root canals, dental crowns, or even dental implants, make sure you take time to protect your smile between visits. Tartar prevention is made easier by the right commitment to daily brushing as well as flossing. When you brush, give yourself two minutes to thoroughly clean every part of your smile. While flossing, be mindful of your periodontal health and move the string vertically to clear away bacteria that gather at the bases of teeth.
