Professional dental cleanings help remove plaque and tartar that regular brushing and flossing may not completely eliminate.
During your cleaning, a dental hygienist will examine your teeth and gums and remove deposits that have accumulated around your teeth and along the gumline. Your teeth may also be polished to remove certain surface stains and leave them feeling smooth and clean.
Your dental hygienist can also provide personalized advice about brushing, flossing, and caring for areas that may be difficult for you to reach at home.
Regular dental cleanings can play an important role in preventing gum disease and maintaining healthy teeth and gums. The recommended frequency depends on your individual oral health needs.
At Port Moody Smile Dental, we believe preventive care is an important foundation for long-term oral health. If you’re due for a dental cleaning in Port Moody, contact our team to schedule an appointment.
