Teeth Cleaning Santa Rosa

Dental Check Up Rohnert Park, Windsor CA

A dental prophylaxis (teeth cleaning) is a cleaning treatment performed to thoroughly clean the teeth and gums. Dental cleanings are an important dental treatment for stopping the progression of gingivitis and periodontal disease.

Teeth cleaning is an effective procedure in keeping the oral cavity in proper health and halting the progression of gum disease. The benefits include:

Plaque Removal – Tartar (also referred to as calculus) and plaque buildup, both above and below the gum line, can result in serious periodontal problems. Unfortunately, even with a proper home brushing and flossing routine, it can be impossible to remove all debris, bacteria, and deposits from gum pockets. The experienced eye of a dentist or hygienist using specialized dental equipment is necessary to catch potentially damaging build ups.

A Healthier Looking SmileStained and yellowed teeth can dramatically decrease the aesthetics of a smile. Professional teeth cleaning is an effective treatment in ridding the teeth of these otherwise unsightly stains.

Fresher Breath – Bad breath (or halitosis) is generally indicative of advancing periodontal disease. A combination of rotting food particles (possibly below the gum line) and potential gangrene that stems from gum infection results in bad breath. The routine removal of plaque, calculus, and bacteria at our office can noticeably improve halitosis and reduce infection.

Your dental cleaning can be performed at our office or by our experienced and caring dental hygienists. We recommend that your teeth cleanings be performed twice annually as a preventative measure, but should be completed every three to four months if you were diagnosed with periodontitis. It should be noted that gum disease cannot be completely reversed, but regular teeth cleanings is one of the tools Dr. Jordan can use to effectively halt its progress.
