Periodontal Maintenance Cleanings
After finishing your periodontal treatment, your periodontist and dental hygienist will suggest that you schedule regular maintenance cleanings (periodontal cleanings) about four times a year. During these appointments, your gums will be thoroughly examined to ensure they are in good health. Any plaque and calculus that you may have trouble removing on your own will be removed from both above and below the gum line. Your at-home oral care routine will be reviewed and adjusted as needed to meet your individual needs, and the necessity for diagnostic x-rays will also be discussed.
Get a fresh smile with a deep clean!
Periodontal disease is a serious condition that can greatly impact your overall health and quality of life. Unfortunately, many people overlook the importance of dental health.
Luckily, we are here to help you achieve a beautiful smile that you can be proud of. If you have been diagnosed with periodontal disease, the first step is a thorough cleaning. Our team will remove all tartar from your teeth and gums.
You may also need to use an antibacterial mouth rinse after brushing to fight the bacteria in your mouth. In more severe cases, surgery may be required, which involves placing antibiotic pockets in your gums. Some individuals may also need oral antibiotics to eliminate the disease.
After getting the disease under control, it is crucial to maintain the health of your teeth to prevent tartar and plaque buildup. Regular brushing, flossing, and using an antibacterial mouthwash are essential.
Regular visits to your periodontist for professional cleanings are necessary to keep your mouth healthy. We will carefully monitor your mouth and gums for any signs of the disease, allowing for early detection and easier treatment if it returns.
