The Importance of Regular Cleanings and Exams

Dental cleanings and exams are about more than just keeping your teeth clean. These appointments are a cornerstone of preventive dentistry, helping to address potential issues before they become serious problems.

Benefits of Cleanings and Exams Include:

  • Prevention of Decay: Removes plaque and tartar buildup, which can lead to cavities.
  • Gum Disease Prevention: Helps reduce the risk of gingivitis and periodontitis.
  • Early Detection: Identifies oral health issues such as cavities, gum disease or oral cancer early on.
  • Improved Overall Health: Supports systemic health by reducing oral bacteria linked to other health conditions.
