Why Regular Teeth Cleaning Is Important
Good oral hygiene isn’t just about a pretty smile — it’s vital for your overall health.
• Remove stubborn plaque and tartar safely.
• Prevent gum disease before it starts.
• Enjoy fresher breath with our gentle cleanings.
• Maintain a healthier, brighter smile for longer.
In short, regular professional teeth cleaning is a cornerstone of preventive dentistry. It’s far easier (and more pleasant!) to get a quick clean every six months than to deal with toothaches, bleeding gums, or emergencies later. By investing a little time in hygiene appointments, you’re investing in a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.
Healthy Gums = Healthy Smile (Gum Disease Prevention)
Gum disease is one of the biggest threats to adult dental health – but it’s also highly preventable with proper care. Gum disease prevention is at the heart of what our dental hygienist does. Gum disease usually starts as mild gingivitis (inflamed, bleeding gums) and can advance to periodontitis, where the supporting bone and ligaments around teeth are damaged. You might notice symptoms like red or swollen gums, bleeding when brushing, or persistent bad breath. If left untreated, gum disease can eventually lead to loose teeth or even tooth loss.
