Teeth Cleanings in Palmdale CA

Palmdale CA Best Dentist

Teeth cleanings might just seem like the formality at the end of your twice-yearly dental exam, but they serve a vital role in the maintenance of your dental and periodontal well-being. At Palmdale Dental Group, our priority is prevention, followed closely by early detection and treatment. Cleanings represent both.

The reason that they're so essential is that nothing does more to mitigate the impact that dental plaque can have on your oral health than teeth cleanings. Plaque grows on and between your teeth. It's a film-like bacteria that erodes tooth enamel. It also attacks your gums, resulting in irritation and redness, the signs of early stage gum disease, or gingivitis. Brushing and flossing is key, of course, but some of the plaque in your mouth hides in gum pocket, out of reach. There it hardens into tartar. Well, only a professional teeth cleaning, which you will get when you visit our Palmdale CA best dentist, can remove tartar effectively. You'll be relieved of any stray plaque, as well. That's like hitting the reset button on strong, healthy teeth and vibrant, pink gums. In fact, if you do have indications of gingivitis, cleanings will halt the progress and reverse the effects of it. Without cleanings, gum disease would continue on to the advanced stage of periodontitis. You would eventually experience symptoms such as receding gums, bleeding gums when you brush, persistent bad breath, loss of gum and bone tissue, and loose teeth. That's a lot to risk, when you can avoid all of those possible consequences by coming in to see our Palmdale CA best dentist every six months.

It is always easier and more efficient to prevent than to treat. Cleanings and a full dental exam will help you to avoid cavities and gum disease. And if you do have either, they will be much simpler to address at that early juncture. Call us to schedule an appointment with our Palmdale CA best dentist.
