Longmont teeth cleaning

Are you interested in taking the very best care of your teeth? If so, you will also want to be sure that your gums remain healthy. If your gums become infected, and the infection goes down to the jawbone, teeth can begin to loosen and fall out. For this reason it is very important that you practice excellent dental hygiene, and come in to our practice for a Longmont teeth cleaning every six months or so.


At Avanti Dental Care, our top-notch dentist will be able to tell you exactly how often you should have a Longmont teeth cleaning. If you have gum problems or other medical conditions which can affect the health of your gums, he may suggest that you come in even more frequently than twice a year. However, it is important to recognize the fact that regularly-scheduled teeth cleanings are very effective in preventing serious gum problems. You will also want to have dental exams on a periodic basis. Our dentist is Dr. Juan Sauza. He specializes in a wide variety of dental areas including preventive dental care. While there are many procedures that can be performed to help restore teeth to good health, it is much easier for the patient to be proactive in their dental care by coming in for dental exams and teeth cleanings.


Some people make the mistake of thinking that if they brush their teeth carefully, and floss their teeth on a daily basis that they do not need to have professional teeth cleanings. However, nothing could be further from the truth. Even with the best at-home dental care regimen, some plaque and bacteria will remain on the teeth. When plaque is allowed to stay on the teeth, for even a short period of time, it will harden and turn into tartar. Tartar is a mineralized substance which can only be removed from the tooth using professional dental cleaning instruments. If tartar is allowed to remain on teeth, deep pockets will develop between the teeth and gums. Plaque, tartar bacteria, and food debris will all begin to gather in these deep pockets and infection will take hold. At this point you have gum disease which needs to be treated. Gum disease will not go away by itself and will only proceed to get worse. Gum disease can even go on to infect other areas of your body, set calling for prompt medical attention. It is much easier to prevent these problems by simply coming in for a Longmont teeth cleaning every six months or so. If you would like an appointment for a tooth cleaning or for a dental exam, simply contact our office today.
