Why Should I get My Teeth Cleaned?
Even the best dental hygiene routine doesn’t guarantee your mouth and teeth are completely free of germs and tartar. Home toothbrushes, floss and dental rinse can only do so much. In fact, being too aggressive in your home regimen can do more harm than good. When it comes to a safe, pain-free dental cleaning, Columbus residents come to Central Ohio Dental Associates to keep teeth clean and healthy.
It’s recommended to get your teeth cleaned 2x a year
Oral Hygiene Instruction
Instruction includes a review of brushing and flossing techniques along with tips on how to reach the commonly missed areas.
Removal Of Plaque
Plaque adheres to the teeth and over time becomes calculus (tartar). It is difficult to see, and the bacteria that reside in the plaque produce toxins that cause inflammation in the gums and other tissue.
Removal of Tartar
As plaque gets old it hardens into tartar. It can form on the tooth above and below the gum line. Tartar cannot be removed by brushing or flossing. It requires special dental instruments to be removed.
Tooth Polishing
Plaque and stains are removed by polishing in areas where brushing and flossing are not effective.
