Regular Cleanings: The Foundation of a Healthy Smile

Regular professional cleanings are the cornerstone of good oral health. By removing plaque and tartar buildup, cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues. Here's what you can expect during a cleaning:

  • Plaque Removal: Advanced dental tools ensure a thorough and comfortable cleaning, eliminating plaque buildup.
  • Polishing: Stains and discoloration are removed, leaving your teeth sparkling clean.
  • Fluoride Treatment (Optional): In some cases, an additional fluoride treatment may be recommended to strengthen your teeth and prevent decay.
Schedule regular cleanings, typically twice a year, to maintain a healthy smile and prevent future problems.

Nightguards: Protect Your Smile from Teeth Grinding

Do you grind your teeth at night? This habit, called bruxism, can cause headaches, jaw pain (TMJ), and uneven tooth wear.

Custom-made nightguards can help! These comfortable guards are worn during sleep:

  • Protect your teeth from grinding and wear
  • Reduce headaches and jaw pain associated with TMJ
  • Promote a healthy, comfortable bite

If you suspect you grind your teeth, talk to your dentist about nightguards and other treatment options for a healthier, happier smile.
