Regular Cleanings for a Healthy Smile
Professional dental cleanings are an essential part of your overall dental health. They're also the best way to keep your teeth looking and feeling their best. By seeing your dentist for a cleaning every six months, you can help prevent cavities and gum disease. Regular cleanings also reinforce good oral habits that will promote lifelong dental health.
Although some people believe they don't need to see a dentist if they brush and floss every day, the truth is that a dental cleaning provides a deeper clean that good oral habits at home simply can't match. Daily brushing and flossing are important, but these activities often leave plaque, food particles and bacteria behind. Skipping out on dental cleanings can result in cavities, gum disease, bad breath and long-term oral health issues.
