Professional Teeth Cleanings

Professional teeth cleaning is one of the most important services that dentists can provide to their patients. These visits to the dentist can help you maintain healthy teeth and gums. Here’s why you should see the dentist at Streator Family Dental for regular cleanings:

• Prevent cavities and gum disease. Getting your teeth cleaned removes plaque and tartar, which in turn can help prevent cavities and gum disease.
• Maintain fresh breath. Fresh breath comes from a clean mouth. We can help!
• Keep your teeth looking beautiful. Clean teeth are beautiful teeth.
• We catch problems before they get serious. We’ll look for chips, cracks, loose teeth, gum disease, infection in the teeth, cavities, and more.

What to Expect During Teeth Cleaning

Every teeth cleaning is different, and some services (like dental x-rays) are only provided occasionally. However, the following are some of the normal parts of teeth cleaning visits:

• Thorough teeth cleaning. We’ll use modern, state-of-the-art tools to remove plaque and tartar from your teeth.
• Examination. We’ll look at your teeth for signs of periodontal disease and other damage that could cause pain, tooth decay, and tooth loss.
• X-rays. X-rays help us catch problems that otherwise may not be visible during examinations.
• Opportunity to ask questions. You’ll have an opportunity to ask questions about oral hygiene and toothcare.

When Should You Get Your Teeth Cleaned?

Get your teeth cleaned every six months, unless otherwise directed by your dentist.
