How Often Do I Need My Teeth Professionally Cleaned

Cleaning your teeth is one of the most important parts of your daily routine. Making a regular trip to the dentist for a cleaning and check-up should also be a high priority. The American Dental Association recommends visiting the dentist At Least twice a year. Every patient is different and may require more cleanings. For example, if you have a history of gum disease then you should get your teeth cleaned more often to prevent further infection or disease. Discussing your individual needs with your dentist is very important. Your dentist will use professional instruments to remove the build-up, tartar, and plaque that you can not. This combined with regular brushing and flossing will indeed protect you from gum disease, tooth decay, and tooth loss. Make your appointment now and get that smile you’ve always wanted.
