More Important Notes on Teeth Cleaning From Milford Dentists

Last month Milford Dentist’s Andrea Clarke gave recommendations on the subject of teeth cleaning, and this month we continue with the theme, examining the reasons why we should have our teeth professionally cleaned.  Andrea also stresses the cost of gum treatment and the efficacious use of Perio-Air Flow to help maintain healthy gums and teeth. Whether it’s a simple scale and polish or more complex gum treatment or periodontal work, Milford Dentists Dental Hygienists Karen and Dentists Andrea, Geoff and Tristan have been professionally cleaning teeth collectively for over 70 years.

The cost of gum treatment can vary depending on several factors, including how often you brush your teeth, whether you are prone to plaque and tartar build up and whether you are predisposed to gum infection. However, having your teeth professionally cleaned on a regular basis will be a lot cheaper in the long run..

Karen is trained to gently remove dental plaque and hardened scale or tartar from around teeth and she also has a Perio-Air Flow. This is the best piece of dental technology for removing difficult to get to staining using a gentle stream of air, water and bicarbonate of soda or glycine powder through a tiny nozzle to remove surface stains, plaque and other soft deposits such as food particles trapped in between the teeth.

Perio-Air Flow technology removes dental plaque which helps to prevent Gingivitis and Periodontal disease, helping to maintain heathy gum tissue around Dental Implants, and cleans the grooves in your teeth ready for fissure sealing. It also cleans well around braces and removes dental plaque from under the gum. The literature overwhelmingly supports the use of an air polishing device as an efficient and effective means of removing stain and plaque from tooth surfaces in conjunction with routine dental scaling with Milford Dentists’ Dental Hygienist. In short, air polishing is believed to be the least damaging and most efficient means of removing stain on enamel.

By going to the dentist on a regular basis and keeping your teeth clean with correct tooth brushing, at least twice a day for two minutes, flossing daily and the use of interdental brushes, you can avoid the very unpleasant reality of gum disease.
