Why is regular teeth cleaning important?
Regular teeth cleaning is important because it helps remove plaque and tartar buildup that cannot be eliminated by brushing and flossing alone. This prevents tooth decay and gum disease, which can lead to more serious health issues if left untreated. Professional cleanings also allow your dentist to detect early signs of dental problems, ensuring timely and effective treatment. Additionally, regular teeth cleaning contributes to fresher breath and a brighter smile, enhancing your overall oral health and confidence.

How often should you get dental checkups?
It is recommended to get dental checkups every six months to maintain optimal oral health. Regular checkups allow your dentist to monitor your dental health, perform professional cleanings, and catch any potential issues early before they become more serious. Depending on your individual needs and oral health condition, your dentist may suggest more frequent visits.

Why are brushing and flossing important?
Brushing and flossing are essential for maintaining good oral health. Brushing helps remove plaque, bacteria, and food particles from the surfaces of your teeth, preventing tooth decay and gum disease. Flossing cleans between the teeth and under the gumline, where a toothbrush can’t reach, removing debris and plaque buildup that can lead to cavities and periodontal disease. Together, brushing and flossing help maintain healthy teeth and gums, prevent bad breath, and contribute to overall dental hygiene.
