Professional Dental Cleaning Is A Must
At Brown & Gettings, DDS, we often share videos and information about restoring and improving your oral health. In addition to dental treatments, the best way to ensure that you have excellent oral health is to visit our office for routine hygiene examinations and cleanings. Since we are still at the beginning of the year, now is a perfect time to think about when your last dental cleaning appointment was. If it has been longer than six months, then you are definitely due.
Reasons We Recommend Professional Cleanings
Even if you have excellent oral health and thoroughly brush and floss your teeth, we still recommend visiting our office for an oral hygiene examination. During these appointments, we thoroughly clean your teeth and remove tartar and bacteria that have accumulated in the nooks and crannies. Regularly removing this bacteria helps prevent tooth decay and gum disease. It is impossible for you to remove everything from your teeth with brushing and flossing alone.
When you visit our office regularly, we can monitor any potential problems that might be brewing in your mouth. When we see you in our office every four to six months, we know what warning signs to look for, and while we might see an area that has the potential to cause future problems, it may not require immediate treatment. Regular appointments allow us to monitor the area and make treatment recommendations when necessary.
Promote Healthy Gums
One of the biggest oral health problems adults face is gum disease. More than half of American adults will experience gum disease at some point in their lives. This condition can develop when the gums are not cleaned and cared for properly. Regular dental cleanings help prevent this common disease. Between appointments, it is important to monitor your oral health and look for any changes that may seem concerning.
If you or a loved one needs a dental hygiene examination and cleaning, be sure to contact our office located in West Chester, OH. We want to help you maintain proper oral health. We look forward to hearing from you soon!
