The Importance of Dental Exams and Teeth Cleaning
Your mouth is host to many strains of oral bacteria. They form a sticky biofilm called plaque that traps food debris. Without regular dental cleaning, which involves removing plaque from teeth with special instruments, the film hardens into tartar. Heavy tartar removal requires a much more aggressive technique, so it is better to stay on top of the problem.
Cleaning appointments are Dr. Chacko’s and Dr Vein’s chance to perform a screening examination of teeth and soft tissues. They screenfor oral cancer and may recommend dental X-rays for a closer look at what is going on inside your body.
Early detection of dental problem generally results in treatment that is:
- Less extensive and expensive
- More comfortable
- Likely to have a better outcome
Avoid Problems with Preventive Dental Care
When teeth are freshly cleaned, it is an excellent time to consider preventive dental treatment. Topical application of fluoride fortifies tooth enamel, “healing” tiny cavities and combats daily acid attack that causes new ones. Tooth sealants keep harmful bacteria out of crevices in molars where cavities are likely to form. Dental sealant is a good idea for children, as soon as permanent molars emerge. Adults benefit from sealants, too – especially smokers and people with hereditary soft enamel.
