A dental cleaning is a professional cleaning you receive from a dentist or dental hygienist.
Most dental cleanings take approximately 45-60 minutes.
Plaque left untreated can lead to unhealthy gums, gingivitis, and tooth decay.
During your routine cleaning we will remove excess plaque and polish your teeth.
If it has been more than 18 months since your previous cleaning a "Full Mouth Debridement" may be recommended first if you have heavy tarter buildup that can be more difficult to remove.
Without this treatment, the gum disease can break down the bone around the tooth so that eventually the tooth will become loose.
Often a person will have no symptoms unless a proper dental exam is performed.
Unfortunately, the damage to the bone around the teeth is irreversible, however if the gum disease is caught in time, its progression can be halted and improved upon which is the key to maintaining your periodontal health (the health of your gums and supporting structures such as bone).
Typically with deeper periodontal pockets, the scaling and root planning procedure might be broken down into multiple appointments to have time to adequately clean each area of your mouth.
A filling is a way to restore a tooth damaged by decay back to its normal function and shape.
If you have a tooth that requires a filling, the dentist will first remove the decayed tooth material, clean the affected area, and then fill the cleaned out cavity with a filling material.
A filling helps prevent further decay by closing off any cracks or spaces where bacteria can enter.
There are a variety of filling materials available including gold, silver, plastic and porcelain.
The dentist will work with you to determine which material is best, depending on the extent of repair, where in the filling is needed, and cost.
Crowns and bridges are used to restore and enhance teeth that are damaged or to take the place of missing teeth.
A crown (also referred to as a cap) is used to entirely cover a damaged tooth.
A crown not only strengthens a tooth, but it can dramatically improve a tooth's appearance, shape and alignment.
Crowns can be made from different material such as porcelain, porcelain to metal (PFM), Zirconia, or Gold.
The dentist will talk to you about which material will be best for the tooth you need crowned.
