When you come to the office for your routine visit to the dentist, you will first receive a full cleaning of the surface of your teeth. This process helps you to have a healthier smile by removing your acidic bacterial buildup from your mouth. You may notice the initial film before you brush your teeth in the morning. This first stage is known as plaque, and if you do not remove is with your routine oral hygiene practices, it can become a significant problem.
Plaque will calcify into tartar, which is a harder form that requires a trained dentist or dental hygienist to remove. At your semiannual checkup, we will help you by cleaning the surface of your teeth, allowing your smile to be free of this accumulation.
Alongside your thorough cleaning during your semiannual checkup, you will also have a visual examination to keep an eye on any problems to your oral health. Your dentist will also take any necessary digital x-rays in order to gain a full view of your dentistry.
Receiving an early diagnosis can give you the knowledge that you need to change your habits. If you require a form of treatment, talk with your dentist about how to resolve you issue before lasting damage can occur.
If it has been too long since your last dental appointment, give us a call! Talk with a valued member of our team at Modern Smiles in North Hollywood, CA at (818)763-9353, and schedule your next semiannual checkup.
