Teeth Cleanings

Our holistic dentists in West Palm Beach, FL, recommend frequent teeth cleanings to maintain good oral health and wellness. The average patient needs dental cleanings every six months. However, you may need a professional teeth cleaning more often if you have a chronic condition that requires more care, such as periodontitis.

Regardless of your circumstances, you can trust our team to provide excellent holistic dental care.

Here are some of the top benefits of routine teeth cleanings.

Remove Plaque and Tartar

Even when practicing good oral hygiene, bacteria will accumulate on your teeth and gums. For this reason, it’s important that you continue to schedule teeth cleanings and exams with our office. During your appointment, we’ll gently remove plaque and tartar and offer oral hygiene counseling as needed. That way, you can give your smile the TLC it deserves!

Protect Your Overall Health

If left untreated, bacteria will harden into tartar and increase your risk of cavities, gum disease, and other health issues. Once the gums are compromised, it’s also possible for bacteria and other toxins to enter the bloodstream.

This can trigger inflammation throughout the body, which has been shown to damage blood vessels and contribute to heart disease. Research has also shown a correlation between periodontal disease and diabetes, dementia, rheumatoid arthritis, and premature births.

As a holistic dental practice, we place a high emphasis on preventive care. By removing harmful bacteria from your smile, we can help protect your overall health for a lifetime.
