Having your teeth cleaned by your dentist or dental hygienist is one of the simplest ways to prevent oral health problems. Event the most diligent brusher and flosser has areas that they cannot access effectively, allowing bacteria, plaque and tartar to accumulate. If these areas are not professionally cleaned regularily, you may be faced with gum disease (gingivits), bone disease (periodontal), tooth loss, bad breath, and have some serious impacts on your systemic health.
