Schedule Dental Cleanings & Exams
When it comes to your oral health, preventative care is key. Like wearing sunscreen in the summer, making sure to protect your teeth and gums is vital in preventing larger issues in the future. While brushing and flossing every day are great oral habits, nothing replaces the importance of routine cleanings and exams. A professional cleaning removes tartar and plaque that a toothbrush and floss cannot, and routine exams ensure that dental issues don’t progress unnoticed over months/years. For dental appointments in Peabody, Newburyport, and Winthrop, give our offices a call.Â
What Is Included in Preventative Dental Care?
Preventative care is a catch-all term for a category of dental treatments. Simply put, preventative care includes dental exams and dental cleanings.Â
Dental Exams:Â A dental exam includes treatments like dental X-rays and visual inspections from your dentist. During an exam, your dentist looks for signs of dental decay, gum disease, and other oral issues so that they can be addressed as soon as possible.Â
Dental Cleanings:Â A cleaning is often handled by a dental hygienist. Cleanings can include brushing, flossing, and scraping away plaque and tartar. They can also include fluoride treatments, dental sealants, and other procedures that protect your teeth from bacteria.Â
Can You Be Sedated During A Dental Deep Cleaning?
Sometiems if there is severe dental issues, your dentist may recommend gum disease treatments, including a deep cleaning. A deep cleaning involves removing tartar and plaque near and under the gums. This can sometimes cause some anxiety among patients. Here at Varinos Dental Associates, we understand that dental anxiety can sometimes make it difficult to schedule a dental appointment. We provide dental sedation services that can be used during deep cleanings and other procedures to help patients feel calmer during their dental visits.Â
Dental sedation is a great way to help patients who might be struggling with pre-existing dental anxiety or dental sensitivity.Â
Benefits of Preventative Dental Care
Dental exams and cleanings provide many different benefits for patients. First and foremost, by scheduling two visits per year, you ensure that dental issues like dental decay or gum disease do not progress without being noticed. The earlier problems are caught, the easier they are to solve, and sometimes the reverse. Dental decay can sometimes be reversible when it is caught early, or at the very least, a quick filling is much better than a more intensive treatment. Professional cleanings also provide cosmetic dental benefits, helping restore patients’ confidence in their smiles.Â
