Why is regular teeth cleaning important?
Regular teeth cleaning by a professional is essential because it helps remove the plaque and tartar that accumulate on your teeth, even with diligent brushing and flossing at home. These cleanings prevent the development of cavities and gum disease by keeping the oral environment healthy. Additionally, these sessions allow dental professionals to spot early signs of problems such as tooth decay, oral cancer, or other dental issues that might require more complex treatment if left unaddressed. Cleanings also provide an opportunity for the dentist to reinforce good oral hygiene practices and offer personalized advice based on the condition of your teeth and gums.

How often should you get dental checkups?
Dental checkups are typically recommended every six months for most people, although the frequency can vary based on individual oral health needs. These regular visits are critical because they allow dentists to monitor the health of your teeth and gums, make adjustments to your dental care routine, and catch potential problems early. For patients with a history of dental issues such as gum disease, or for those who are at a higher risk due to other health conditions, more frequent checkups may be necessary to maintain optimal oral health.

Why are brushing and flossing important?
Brushing and flossing are the foundational elements of oral hygiene and play a critical role in preventing dental problems. Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste helps remove food particles and plaque from the surfaces of the teeth and gums, preventing the buildup that leads to cavities and gum disease. Flossing at least once a day is equally important as it removes food particles and plaque from between the teeth and under the gum line—areas that a toothbrush can’t reach. Together, these practices help prevent bad breath, decrease the risk of tooth decay, and are vital for maintaining overall oral health.
