Dental Cleanings – Good Dental Hygiene Means Better Health
Even if you aren’t experiencing any problems with your teeth or dental health, it’s essential to attend dental cleanings at least twice a year. Hygiene appointments help you stay on top of your dental health, remove plague tartar and food build-up, and identify signs of more serious health problems. A simple cleaning appointment can spot the early signs of gum disease, tooth decay, and even oral cancer, so it’s well worth prioritizing, no matter what age you are.
What Can I Expect From My Dental Cleaning Appointment?
We understand that not everyone likes going to the dentist, so our aim is to make you feel as comfortable as possible during your appointment.
We’ll start off by completing a thorough assessment of your dental hygiene, then gently remove any build-up, plaque, or tartar that could cause problems down the line. We’ll also keep an eye out for any signs of developing tooth decay or gum disease, and complete a simple oral cancer screening. The whole appointment usually lasts no longer than an hour, but it’s usually quicker if you maintain good dental hygiene at home!
To put your mind at ease, we’ll also answer any questions you may have throughout your visit, and talk you through each step of the dental cleaning process. You’ll leave with a brighter smile, a healthier mouth, and personalized tips on how to look after your teeth.
