5 Reasons You Should Have Your Teeth Cleaned Regularly

While visiting the dentist every 6 months for a teeth cleaning may seem like an unnecessary burden, there are actually many health benefits to having regular dental checkups. Here’s what you need to know:

PREVENT SERIOUS DENTAL PROBLEMS

Regular checkups and cleanings give your dentist the chance to thoroughly examine your teeth and gums, assess your oral health, and identify any potential problems before they become serious. In the long rung you could be saving yourself from costly dental procedures by catching imperfections early on.

KEEP TEETH FREE OF PLAQUE

Plaque is the leading cause of tooth decay. It eats away at tooth enamel and can lead to cavities. Brushing and flossing are great ways to maintain good oral hygiene, but a thorough dental cleaning performed by a dentist is also crucial to plaque removal.

STOP GUM DISEASE

Plaque is also a major cause of tooth loss in adults because an unchecked buildup can lead to gum disease and advanced gum disease can loosen teeth. Regular dental cleanings combined with good oral hygiene can help prevent gum disease.

BRIGHTEN YOUR SMILE

Coffee, tea, wine even some fruit can all stain your pearly whites. Enjoy your favorite foods and drinks without fear by scheduling regular dental checkups. Dental cleaning can remove stains and leave you with a brighter smile.

FRESHEN BREATH

Nobody wants bad breath! Taking good care of your teeth and gums, by brushing, flossing and having regular cleanings is a great way to help prevent the conditions that can cause breath to smell less than perfect.
