What to Expect During Dental Cleanings in Mesquite
Our friendly dental hygienist will remove excess plaque and bacteria from your teeth during your professional teeth cleaning. This reduces your chances of developing common dental problems like tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease, as plaque buildup contributes to these problems.
Your teeth cleaning is a great time to ask your hygienist questions. They may also offer helpful suggestions or products that will help you improve your home care routine.
What Happens During the Dental Exam?
Our dentist will perform a thorough exam at every preventive appointment. He aims to identify any problematic areas of concern early on before treatment becomes more complicated.
For example, spotting tooth decay in its earliest stages allows you to treat it with less expensive and noninvasive procedures. If tooth decay is undetected or untreated, it will move deeper into the tooth until it causes an infection in the nerve. A tooth infection requires more complicated treatment, like a root canal, to eliminate the infection and preserve the tooth.
