The
Importance of Hygiene Visits
It may seem basic and routine, but getting your teeth
cleaned by a professional hygienist is one of the most
important reasons to visit us. Plaque and tartar form on
teeth over time. Soft and sticky plaque can usually be
mostly removed by regular brushing. But plaque hardens into
tartar, and your typical toothbrush and floss aren’t enough
to take care of it. Why is that bad? Tartar accumulates
below the gumline as well as on the surface of the teeth. If
it’s not removed by a professional, you are at greater risk
for more serious problems with your teeth and gums in the
future. Recent research shows a definite link between
untreated gum disease and other serious conditions like
heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Get your teeth cleaned
regularly; it’s an easy, important way you can stay healthy!
