Dental Cleanings: How Important Are They?

Posted .

Have you ever been told that you should visit a dentist once every six months? Do you ever struggle to make these appointments because of time constraints or because they’re inconvenient? While we understand that your time is valuable, please know that these appointments are actually vital to the health of your teeth.

An important part of these appointments is a dental cleaning. You see, when you come in for a professional cleaning, we’ll be able to clean your teeth and remove stains that you can’t take care of at home. Furthermore, during these appointments, we may be able to recognize signs of more serious problems that could eventually require expensive treatments. In other words, these visits can ultimately save you money since cleanings are fairly inexpensive.

If you visit our dentist, our team will be able to recognize issues such as oral cancer, which is far easier to treat if it’s caught early. Similarly, we can help you recognize signs of gum disease and tooth decay, and may be able to help you reverse it. This is extremely important because tooth decay lead to heart disease and respiratory problems.

Would you like to schedule an appointment with our team? Are you interested in learning more about the benefits of a bi-annual cleaning? If so, please feel free to get in touch with John F. Lann, DDS - Round Rock TX Dentist by calling 512-255-1025. Dr. John F. Lann and the rest of our team will be happy to answer any questions you have and inspect your pearly whites. We look forward to hear from you soon.
