Complete Dental Cleaning

Your toothbrush is your first line of defense against preventable oral health issues, like tooth decay and gum disease. It is best to brush all surfaces of your teeth for at least 2 minutes twice a day. Unfortunately, most Americans do not brush enough. This allows bacteria and plaque to accumulate on your teeth, increasing the risk of tooth decay.

Besides brushing, it is best to floss in between each tooth before going to bed. On average, less than half of Americans make it a daily habit. If you are among those who skip it, you are leaving as much as 40% of your tooth’s surfaces uncleaned, allowing tartar to accumulate. This significantly increases your risk of gum disease.

Even if you have the best oral hygiene habits, you still need a professional cleaning at least twice a year. We use special dental tools to clean areas you cannot reach at home, like below the gum line.

Comprehensive Dental Checkup

Often, it is thought you do not need an appointment until after a problem develops, but this could not be further from the truth. Routine checkups allow us to monitor your dental health to look for any areas of concern sooner. By treating the problem while it is still small, it lessens the need for a costly or invasive treatment in the future. It allows you to keep your teeth and gums healthy to prevent an unexpected trip to your emergency dentist.

Although you may feel the appointments are a waste of time, they provide you with a cost-savings opportunity. Every $1 spent on prevention decreases your restorative and emergency dental costs by $8 to $50.
