Brushing and flossing go a long way in keeping your mouth free of bacteria and disease; however, it is highly recommended that you go to a professional for regular cleanings and checkups to ensure that your oral health is in good shape. Your dentist or hygienist is able to clean those tough-to-reach spots that normal tooth brushes do not do a good job of cleaning, and they can check for any cavity or anomalies before they become too severe and therefore more expensive.
We believe that your mouth should be free of infection before we start any restorative phase of dental treatment. If you are in need of treatment for gum disease, we will take care of it first to prepare a sound foundation for a successful restoration.
