When do you need Teeth Cleaning?
Teeth cleaning, also known as dental prophylaxis, is recommended for individuals of all ages to maintain optimal oral health. You may need teeth cleaning in the following situations:
- Routine Preventive Care
- Signs of Plaque and Tartar Buildup
- Gum Disease Prevention
- Bad Breath (Halitosis)
- Stained or Discolored Teeth
- Preparation for Other Dental Procedures
Remember, maintaining good oral hygiene practices at home, including regular brushing, flossing, and using mouthwash, is essential. However, professional teeth cleaning by a dental hygienist or dentist is necessary to reach areas that are difficult to clean at home and to detect and treat any underlying oral health issues.
