Dental Cleanings What to Expect
Our dental cleanings are performed by a trained dental hygienist. During these routine visits, we are able to identify problems in the earliest stages and recommend the most conservative treatment options, saving the you from potentially uncomfortable and expensive procedures.
Dental cleanings are also very important to the oral health of children and adolescents. Starting a dental care routine early will create long term habits for proper oral health care into adulthood. We begin pediatric dental care at three years of age.
If you show early signs of gum disease, we may perform scaling and root planing procedures to remove plaque and tartar from deep pockets in the gum. Gum disease is a leading cause of tooth loss in adults, many patients may have gingivitis, an early stage of gum disease, but not experience symptoms. Most problems can be detected during the dental cleaning to prevent future damage, infection or decay.
