Dental Cleanings in Williamsburg
The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends dental visits at least twice per year. At Williamsburg Smile Care, we follow that recommendation and provide high-quality dental cleanings and thorough preventive exams. This allows us to ensure your optimal oral health.
Periodontal care professional cleanings help remove built-up plaque and tartar. This removal is important for preventing tooth decay, periodontal disease, and other oral health issues. These cleanings can also help remove surface stains and keep your teeth looking whiter and brighter. Periodontal or gum disease is a bacterial infection that can attack the gums and bone around the teeth. If left untreated it can eventually lead to tooth loss.
During your examination, we will also:
- Evaluate your overall oral health
- Perform a gum tissue screening to check for periodontal disease
- Determine what type of cleaning is best for you and the frequency these cleanings will be needed
- Discuss oral hygiene practices and habits
- Check your bite and jaw for any issues
- Evaluate your risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and oral cancer
- Evaluate existing tooth restorations
- Take dental x-rays if necessary
A healthy mouth and a beautiful smile can be attained through regular dental cleanings and exams by a professional. Contact us today to request an appointment for an exam and a cleaning.
