teeth cleaning in Florence MA.
When patients are interested in taking care of their teeth and gums, they are always very careful to take time for their at-home dental care. They brush their teeth after meals, and floss at least once a day. However, it is very important that patients also come in for a regularly-scheduled
teeth cleaning in Florence MA. These teeth cleanings are very important to keep your teeth clean and your gums healthy. Depending on your gum situation and your medical health, our dentist will be able to recommend exactly how often you should come in for teeth cleanings. While at home, people can never completely remove all the plaque and bacteria on their teeth. When plaque is allowed to remain on teeth it turns into tartar. Tartar is a hard, mineralized substance that can only be removed with professional dental instruments. If left on the tooth, tartar will help with the formation of deep pockets between the teeth and gums. In these pockets plaque, tartar, bacteria, and food debris will all gather and form serious infection.
When you have a
teeth cleaning in Florence MA, and tartar is removed, it also greatly reduces the chance of any deep pockets developing. So these teeth cleanings are instrumental in helping prevent the formation of gum disease. If you are having a teeth cleaning at our office, and it is observed that you have gingivitis, a precursor to gum disease, our dentist will most likely recommend that you have several teeth cleanings over the coming months. Teeth cleanings are generally able to remove the gingivitis, and your gums will return to their original, excellent health. If you would like to meet with our dentists for a comprehensive dental exam, contact our office today.
