Professional Dental Cleanings for Optimal Oral Health

At Only Smiles Family Dental, we emphasize the importance of regular dental cleanings. These cleanings are a fundamental part of maintaining good oral hygiene and preventing dental diseases.

Dental Cleanings

Why Are Regular Dental Cleanings Important?

Regular dental cleanings are essential because they:

  • Remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing alone can't
  • Help prevent gum disease and tooth decay
  • Allow for early detection of potential dental issues
  • Contribute to overall health by reducing the risk of certain diseases linked to oral health

What Happens During a Dental Cleaning Appointment?

A typical dental cleaning appointment includes:

  • Thorough removal of plaque and tartar buildup
  • Polishing teeth to remove surface stains
  • Flossing between the teeth
  • Dental examination to check for signs of decay or gum disease
  • Recommendations for oral hygiene improvements

How Often Should You Get Dental Cleanings?

The frequency of dental cleanings can vary based on individual needs, but generally:

  • We recommend dental cleanings every six months
  • Patients with certain dental or health conditions may require more frequent cleanings
