Clean Teeth Has It’s Advantages
Some people are afraid to go to the dentist. They avoid going until they have a dental emergency; a cracked tooth or an intense amount of pain is often what leads people into the dentist’s chair. What most people don’t understand is: if they just got regular cleanings, they wouldn’t end up in so much pain to begin with.
Having your teeth cleaned by a professional has plenty of advantages. Among them are:
- Preventing cavities. Plaque can eat away at your tooth enamel, causing cavities. By removing plaque build-up regularly, you remove the opportunity for it to settle in.
- Stopping tooth loss. Gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss. Regular cleanings can prevent gum disease, giving your teeth a solid chance.
- Brightening and whitening your smile. Dental cleanings will polish your teeth and give your smile a boost.
- Freshening your breath. Studies show that the majority of people who suffer from bad breath have dental-related issues that are not properly taken care of.
- Improving your health. Regular cleanings can lower your risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Your dentist will also screen for oral cancer, which is highly curable if caught early.
- Catching dental problems. If you have a small cavity or any other dental issue, your dentist and hygienist will be able to see it and take care of it before it gets worse.
- Saving you money. Getting on top of your oral health now will stop you from having to spend more on bigger issues later.
Getting a cleaning every six months can help with all of these dental issues and more. Isn’t it easier to get into the chair for a cleaning then to get into the chair for an extraction?
