Dentist recommends professional teeth cleaning for those needing plaque and tartar removal

Your teeth are intended to last a lifetime. But we all know that the unexpected can happen. Trauma to the mouth or the development of periodontal disease can impact the health of the smile in dramatic ways. Certain conditions, such as plaque and tartar development, can also contribute to these issues. With professional teeth cleanings in Alpharetta, Georgia, patients can enjoy the removal of plaque and tartar that can start between dental visits and keep the smile healthy for many years to come!

How are plaque and tartar treated?

Addressing these issues often starts at home with diligent care and attention to the smile. Plaque and tartar often form on the teeth and gums due to poor oral hygiene habits. Patients are advised by their dentist, Dr. Bella Hanono, to brush and floss their teeth daily to prevent dental issues from creeping up without warning. This includes visiting our dental office twice yearly for plaque and tartar removal. These appointments also may consist of x-rays to get a visual of the smile’s health, including the bones and structures beneath where the eyes can see. Our dental hygienists can use specialized instruments to remove buildup on the teeth and gums and polish the smile for a beautiful, finished result!

What else can a professional teeth cleaning accomplish?

Ideally, a healthy smile starts at home with daily attention, but if areas are missed and plaque and tartar develop, we can help. We will educate you further on brushing and floss and recommend alternative items such as special toothpaste, waterpiks, and mouthwashes to assist you with your biggest dental concerns. We might also recommend an electric toothbrush or preventative treatments, including fluoride applications and dental sealants.
