A dental cleaning will give cosmetic and general dentist Dr. Patricia Roach the opportunity to check for any areas of concern in the mouth that might require treatment.

For personalized cleanings in a comfortable, relaxing environment, schedule an appointment at our Lake Mary, FL office today.

The American Dental Association (ADA) suggests patients schedule professional dental cleanings twice per year. Children should have their first dental visit before their first birthday to give them a great start to enjoying a happy, healthy smile. After this first visit, Dr. Roach will help you determine when your child will be ready for their next appointment. Disease-causing bacteria live and thrive within the plaque and tartar that accumulate on the teeth. A dental cleaning removes these deposits, which can help reduce the risk of cavities and gum disease. Dental cleanings also help to remove surface stains on the enamel caused by coffee, tea, and other items. If you want to brighten your smile, freshen your breath, improve your overall health, schedule a dental cleaning at Orlando Advanced Dentists.

Your cleaning will begin with the removal of plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth. While plaque can be removed on a daily basis through routine brushing and flossing, tartar can only be eliminated from the teeth through special techniques. Our skilled dental hygienist utilizes special instruments to carefully scale plaque and tartar buildup without harming the teeth. An ultrasonic device will be used first to break up bigger pieces of tartar and plaque with high-speed vibrations and a lubricating mist. Then, handheld tools, like a curette or scaler, will be used to fine-scale and remove any remaining buildup. Each tooth needs to be treated individually to thoroughly remove all of the plaque and tartar. Once the teeth have been scaled, our hygienist will polish your tooth enamel to remove surface stains and then floss your teeth. If needed or requested, a fluoride treatment will be administered once your dental cleaning is complete.

Dr. Roach may suggest cleanings more frequently for some patients, such as those who have concerns, like gum disease. During your appointment, Dr. Roach can help you design a routine for good oral health at home by demonstrating techniques or recommending products that will address your concerns. Maintaining routine dental cleanings can be very beneficial for your teeth and overall health, and may minimize your future dental needs and treatment costs. To enjoy the benefits of lasting dental health, be sure to schedule and attend your dental cleanings at Orlando Advanced Dentists.
