The Importance of Hygiene Visits
Having your teeth cleaned regularly, by a professional hygienist, is one of the best things you can do to stay healthy. Plaque is soft and sticky, and even with regular brushing some of it gets left behind in the grooves and pockets of your teeth and gums. If it's not removed, plaque hardens into tartar, which is beyond the scope of your typical toothbrush and floss. Tartar develops below the gumline as well as on the surface of your teeth, posing serious problems within your mouth – decay and even gum disease. Recent research shows an unquestionable link between untreated gum disease and other serious conditions such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Which means having your teeth cleaned is one of the most important reasons to visit your dentist!
