A thorough exam and gentle cleaning to keep your teeth, gums and bone healthy.
HEALTHY GUMS, HEALTHY FOUNDATION
More than a polish — it protects your bone.
Exams and cleanings are how we maintain perio health — the health of your gums and the bone that holds your teeth. Plaque and tartar that build up below the gumline cause inflammation. Left alone, that inflammation leads to gum recession and bone loss, and teeth can loosen over time. A cleaning removes that buildup above and below the gumline, and the exam lets us measure gum pockets and check bone support early — so we can stop periodontal disease before bone is lost.
