A Clean Smile is the Best Smile

What is the best way to prevent periodontal disease? Regular cleanings with a hygiene professional who can leave your smile feeling completely refreshed and revitalized! Cleanings are a very vital and necessary part of your oral hygiene routine. Our dental hygienist can get rid of unwanted bacteria and tartar that your regular brushing leaves behind.

At our practice, we provide an incomparable dental experience! Enjoy gentle cleanings and polishings that will leave your teeth feeling smooth and luxurious.

We recommend patients come in for a regular cleaning at least twice a year. Cleanings can help prevent dental issues including gum disease. If you already have periodontal disease, cleanings and deep cleanings can help remove the bacteria that’s causing your inflammation.

What is periodontal disease?

Periodontal disease, or gum disease, is prevalent among adults. Gingivitis is especially common. If you’re experiencing irritation, inflammation, and bleeding of the gums, you could have gingivitis. Visit Today Dental as soon as possible.

Without treatment, periodontal disease can develop into more progressive conditions, like periodontitis. Periodontitis puts your gums and jawbone at risk. Gum disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss.

Fortunately, periodontal disease is perfectly treatable. We can prevent the major side-effects from occurring with non-surgical measures at Today Dental!

Our dental professionals recommend frequent periodontal exams so the disease can be discovered in its earliest stages. Early detection results in easier treatment. If your gums are looking a little swollen, schedule a quick exam at Today Dental.
