Maintaining oral hygiene goes beyond daily brushing and flossing. Dental cleanings, recommended every six months, ensure that plaque and tartar don’t lead to serious gum issues. Even with perfect at-home care, professional cleanings remove hidden buildup and help detect early signs of cavities and gum disease. Regular checkups also allow your dentist to catch issues before they become more severe, saving you discomfort and costly treatments later. If you’re overdue for a cleaning, schedule one today and take the first step toward a healthier smile.
