Dental Cleanings, A Must for All Ages!
When life gets busy, it’s easy to overlook “inconveniences” like dental cleanings. Professional teeth cleanings, however, are essential to your oral health. Bi-annual dental cleanings can prevent problems with tooth decay and gum disease. Naturally, prevention is the better choice over costly dental treatments! If it’s been a while since your last visit to the dentist, contact Asuncion Dental Group in Frederick, Maryland, to schedule a dental cleaning.
Why Routine Cleanings are a Must!
Dental cleanings play a significant role in your oral hygiene regardless of age. Brushing and flossing alone aren’t enough to rid your mouth of all plaque and harmful bacteria that can damage your teeth. Professional teeth cleaning reinforces home oral hygiene to improve the health and quality of your smile.
Professional dental cleanings generally start with an oral exam to detect signs of irregularities. Dr. Asuncion will examine your jaw, mouth, teeth, and gums for signs of decay, oral infection, or gum disease. If you haven’t seen a dentist in some time, we’ll take x-rays of your mouth to check your bone health and uncover hidden dental issues. We’ll also perform an oral cancer screening.
Dr. Asuncion uses special dental tools to clean your teeth. These tools remove plaque and tartar buildup that can lead to decay and gum disease. Once your teeth and gums are clean, we’ll floss and polish your teeth to give them a smooth, shiny appearance. Most people will only need bi-annual cleanings to keep their mouths healthy. If you’ve had problems with dental disease in the past, we may recommend more frequent cleanings so we can monitor your oral health.
