Dental Prophylaxis
Meet our awesome dental hygienists! They are skilled, thorough, friendly and incredible at what they do. A dental cleaning at our office is between 1-1.5 hours and includes an explanation of oral hygiene instructions that are custom to fit your personal needs and sending you home with some awesome tools to help keep your mouth free of disease.
The truth is, maintaining a healthy mouth is a team effort between you and your dental hygienist, because, even if you brush and floss twice a day as recommended, there are areas in the mouth that you aren't able to keep clean with your tools at home. Having regular dental exams and cleanings will help us monitor and maintain your oral health so that if disease is detected, it can be treated in a conservative and proactive manner.
Plaque is the main cause of gum disease which can destroy the bone that your teeth sit in causing them to become loose and infected overtime. Plaque is a wall of bacteria that coats your teeth throughout the day. If not brushed away then this plaque will harden and become calculus or tartar. Calculus is not something that you can remove at home with your toothbrush and requires the tools used by a dental professional.
At Dreamworks Dental, we have so many tips to help you maintain the healthiest smile you can have. Come in and let's get started!
