Teeth Cleaning

At Mahavir Dental Care, we know that clean teeth are the foundation of a beautiful smile. Regular teeth cleaning is crucial for good oral health. It is also helpful in warding off dental problems like cavities.

Let us go over why teeth cleaning is so essential to your oral health and how often you should do it.

 

Why is teeth cleaning important?

Imagine teeth cleaning as a daily ritual, like brushing and flossing. Keeping your teeth and gums clean and healthy in this way is as easy as it is beneficial. Cavities, gum disease, and even tooth loss are avoidable with consistent cleanings.

How often should I brush my teeth?

We tell you to brush your teeth twice a day, in the morning and before bed. If you want clean teeth and healthy gums, this is the method to use. You should also see us at least twice a year for a professional cleaning. At these checkups, your dentist will use advanced equipment to clean your teeth. These will remove any buildup of plaque and tartar.

What is plaque, and why should we remove it?

Plaque is a bacterial film that forms on your teeth and gums if you do not brush and floss on a regular basis. Tartar is the hardened form of plaque. It can lead to gum irritation, tooth damage, and eventually gum disease. That is why it is crucial to keep up with your oral hygiene. Make sure you schedule frequent dental checkups and cleanings.

What causes stained teeth?

Mis Brushing is the primary cause of discolored teeth. The food we eat or the water we drink can both leave stains on our teeth.

Another cause is consuming excess tea, coffee, tobacco or drinking water high in iron.

How do I ensure my teeth are being cleaned?

Start by cleaning your teeth twice a day. Use fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush. You should also floss your teeth once a day to get rid of food and plaque that your toothbrush cannot get to.

You can destroy bacteria and get rid of bad breath by using a mouthwash also. Pick a fluoride-containing mouthwash that your dentist recommends.

Eat a diet that is low in sugar and high in calcium and other nutrients needed for strong teeth and gums. Avoid damaging your teeth by not eating ice, biting your nails, or using them to open packages or bottles.

How do I know if I need teeth cleaning?

Cleaning one’s teeth is a common dental practise. You should schedule regular dental cleanings every six months to a year. Those who have persistent bad breath, receding gums, or discolored teeth should also go for it.

If you are experiencing any of these issues, it is time to schedule a visit with us. Our staff is always available to assist you.

So, do not wait any longer. Put your best smile forward by scheduling an appointment with Mahavir Dental Care.

We strive to help you retain your optimal oral health.

Most people don’t feel pain during dental cleanings, but some may feel discomfort or sensitivity during or after the procedure. This can be made less painful by using a local anesthetic or taking painkillers as the dentist suggests.
