Prophylaxis (Teeth Cleaning)
PerioWorks
Keeping your smile healthy and beautiful starts with proper preventative care. At PerioWorks, we specialize in comprehensive prophylaxis (teeth cleaning) to ensure your teeth and gums remain in optimal condition. Even with diligent brushing and flossing at home, professional cleaning is key to removing stubborn plaque and tartar buildup that can lead to gum disease and other oral health issues.
Why Is Prophylaxis Important?
Prophylaxis is more than just a routine cleaning; it’s a vital step in protecting your oral health. With this preventative treatment, we can:
- Remove Plaque and Tartar
Everyday brushing can’t always eliminate plaque and tartar, especially from hard-to-reach areas like beneath the gum line. During a professional cleaning, our experts use specialized tools to remove these deposits, preventing serious periodontal problems.
- Protect Against Gum Disease
By halting the progression of gingivitis, prophylaxis helps preserve healthy gum tissue and lowers your risk of developing more advanced stages of gum disease.
- Enhance Your Smile
Say goodbye to stains and discoloration! Prophylaxis removes surface stains, leaving your teeth brighter and your smile more confident.
- Improve Breath Freshness
Bad breath often stems from lingering bacteria, food particles, or even gum infections. Professional cleanings help eliminate these culprits, leaving your breath noticeably fresher.
- Detect Problems Early
During your teeth cleaning, we can identify early signs of oral health concerns such as cavities, gum recession, or other issues, enabling us to address them before they worsen.
What to Expect During Your Prophylaxis Appointment
At PerioWorks, our team takes pride in offering thorough and personalized care. When you visit for a prophylaxis appointment, you can expect the following:
- A detailed evaluation of your oral health.
- Removal of plaque, tartar, and surface stains using advanced dental tools.
- Polishing of your teeth for an ultra-clean, smooth feel.
- Expert advice on maintaining proper oral hygiene between visits.
We recommend scheduling prophylaxis appointments twice a year, though your dentist or periodontist may advise more frequent visits based on your unique needs. For patients under monitoring for specific conditions, we can alternate these cleanings with treatments tailored to your care plan.
