Exploring the Differences in Dental Cleaning with Health in Mind:

At our practice, we recognize that a healthy mouth is intricately linked to a healthy body. Learn about the distinctions between our services:

• Regular Dental Prophylaxis (Regular Cleaning): Ideal for maintaining a healthy smile, this routine cleaning targets plaque and tartar buildup. However, in cases of gum disease or advanced buildup, a regular cleaning is not suffice.

• Gum Therapy (Gingivitis Cleaning): Specifically designed for addressing early signs of gum disease like gingivitis, this cleaning targets inflammation and helps prevent further progression.

• Periodontal Cleaning (Deep Cleaning): Tailored for cases of advanced gum disease, this deep cleaning reaches below the gum line to remove bacteria and calculus. Unlike a regular cleaning, this procedure is crucial for halting the progression of periodontal disease—a condition associated with heart disease prevention, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, cancers, and more. Recognizing the mouth's connection to the body system, it is vital to address periodontal conditions properly for overall health.

It's important to note that, unlike car cleaning, where a standard wash can work for all, dental cleaning varies based on individual needs. Our recommendations aren't dictated by insurance frequencies but by your unique caries risks and periodontal condition. Your smile is as unique as you are, and our cleaning services reflect that individuality.
