Dental Check-up and Clean in Bella Vista
Why a regular check up and clean is essential
A regular dental check up and clean is one of the best ways to prevent oral health issues. Taking care of your teeth and gums now can prevent a range of oral health issues later, which can even end up affecting your overall health. Issues such as tooth decay, gum disease and infection can be successfully treated if your dentist can catch them early through doing regular oral examinations.
Having a good oral care routine at home is excellent, but it needs to be combined with regular check-ups and professional cleaning. Not all potential teeth and gum issues can be spotted with the naked eye. Dentists know what to look for and have all the necessary tools to see what’s going on beneath the surface.
Your dental hygienist can also clean hardened tartar build-up from your teeth than a regular toothbrush can’t. What’s more, at Lexington Dental, we have a unit called the EMS Airflow for helping us perform professional teeth cleaning. The EMS Airflow is gentler and has the capacity to clean with warm water which is a huge advantage for patients with sensitive teeth. It’s also the least abrasive on all surfaces in the mouth and the most effective at stain removal.
When you combine a thorough at home oral care routine with regular trips to your dentist, you’re in a prime position to achieve and maintain your best possible oral health.
