Calgary, AB dentist explains the importance of dental hygiene & cleanings

Brushing and flossing regularly is an important part of oral health, but it’s just one component. Establishing a good dental hygiene routine should include regular visits to the dentist for exams and cleanings. These appointments along with good nutrition and at-home dental hygiene can ensure that you keep your smile healthy and beautiful. Below, the dental team at Calgary Dental Centers in Calgary, AB explains how dental hygiene and cleanings contributes to dental health and wellness.

Dental Hygiene in Calgary Ab area

Dental hygiene & cleanings

During dental hygiene appointments, patients will have a professional cleaning that will remove plaque and tartar build-up. Over time, even the most meticulous tooth-brushers are susceptible to some plaque build-up on the teeth. If this plaque is not removed, it can eventually lead to tooth discoloration, cavities and gum disease. The professional cleaning provided at Calgary Dental Centers improves the health and appearance of the teeth by removing plaque and surface stains to leave teeth looking and feeling clean, healthy, and polished.

In addition to a professional cleaning, patients will also receive an examination and x-rays when necessary. The examination allows our dental team to assess the overall health of the oral cavity. The dentist will be looking for any potential problems and when necessary, recommend treatment. When dental problems are addressed early, they are easier to treat and restore oral health. Unaddressed dental problems can progress rather quickly, potentially causing irreversible damage and the need for costly restorations.

Benefits of regular dental care

  • Routine monitoring of the mouth to identify oral health concerns early
  • Professional removal of plaque, tartar and surface stains
  • Oral cancer screenings
  • Building a positive rapport with the dental team
  • Reduction in dental anxiety that comes with overdue appointments
