DENTAL EXAMINATION & DENTAL DEEP CLEANING
Regular dental check ups are an essential part of your preventive dental care. During a dental exam, the dentist will:
Check for cavities or gum disease
Evaluate other oral health problems
Check face, neck, and mouth for abnormalities
Professionally clean your teeth
Take dental X-rays if required
Demonstrate proper brushing/flossing technique
Assess your need for fluoride
Discuss diet and oral hygiene habits
How often should you have a dental checkup ?
Professional cleaning includes tooth scaling, polishing, and debridement if too much tartar is present on the teeth. Even though regular brushing and flossing are done on a daily basis, there are chances that tartar can still develop.
They are designed to clear away plaque, tartar, and stains that have accumulated on the teeth over a period of time
Dentists employ specialized instruments to carefully dislodge or remove these deposits without causing any harm to the teeth.
American Academy of General Dentistry recommends that a dentist performs a dental cleaning at least twice a year.
The dentist can detect areas that warrant particular attention, and that can be added to the at-home oral health regimen.
