Can routine dental care help my family avoid cavities?
Yes! Decay is often the result of poor oral care habits and irregular dental visits. Through routine checkups, we can monitor the state of your teeth to see if areas in your oral care need improvement. We can guide you to better brushing and flossing techniques to reduce plaque buildup. Routine cleaning augments your oral hygiene routine by eliminating plaque your toothbrush misses. Our hygienist can remove tartar (hardened plaque), which doesn’t respond to brushing or flossing. Keeping your mouth plaque and tartar-free is key to preventing cavities.
What is gum disease, and how can I prevent it?
The accumulation of plaque and tartar beneath the gum line of your teeth can lead to gum disease, which is an inflammation of the gums. Your gums may enlarge, bleed, and recede as a result of this disorder. Left untreated, advanced gum disease can cause premature tooth loss. You combat gum disease like you combat cavities – through good oral hygiene and routine dental cleanings.
