Our commitment to your Oral Health and Overall Wellness means decreasing inflammation. When you have active periodontal disease, routine home maintenance, and teeth cleaning is not enough as it generally focuses on areas of the tooth that are above the gum-line. A regular scaling and root planing procedure removes plaque, tartar (calculus), and bacterial toxins (biofilms) from tooth surfaces below the gum line.

Some People Need More Frequent Cleanings
Sometimes you may require a maintenance appointment which may include:
-
- Taking digital x-rays to check jawbone levels
- Measuring the depth of periodontal pockets
- Checking for loose teeth or bleeding gums
- Removing plaque or tartar above and below the gum-line
- Talking with you about the effectiveness of your home-care
How Do We Clean Your Teeth?
We use an Ultrasonic Scaler
An ultrasonic scaler consists of a wand with a small scaling tip that produces a soft ultrasonic vibration and a gentle flow of water. As the tip moves along the tooth surface, it makes quick, small vibrations that break up plaque and tartar. These vibrations give you a tickling sensation and cause millions of microscopic bubbles to form in the water.

We believe that Dental Hygiene is crucial for your overall dental health and wellness. At Welcome Smile Dental, that is why we recommend cleanings every six months. Some patients may require more frequent cleanings, while others may require more in-frequent cleanings. However, a good rule of thumb is twice-yearly visits to the dentist for your entire family!
