Deep Professional Cleaning
No matter your age, you should be receiving a deep dental cleaning through a professional dental practice twice a year. The American Dental Association recommends this because it improves overall oral health. All plaque, tartar, and food debris are removed at the cleanings, and then teeth are brushed and polished. Our dental hygienists can thoroughly examine your teeth to help the dentist identify any damage during these cleanings.
