General Dentistry/Dental Cleanings

dental services

Practicing good dental health habits at home along with attending regularly scheduled dental cleanings is the only way to guarantee a healthy smile.

Why is Dentistry Important?

Keeping your mouth healthy is an important part of functioning within society: a bright smile, fresh breath, and clear speaking voice can be vital contributors to personal success. But aside from your appearance, the health of your teeth and gums can drastically impact the health of the rest of your body. Neglecting to take maintaining a healthy mouth seriously can leave you more susceptible to illnesses or diseases that could have easily been prevented by regular dental visits.

Do I Need to Undergo Regular Dental Cleanings?

Regularly scheduled dental cleanings are an absolutely essential part of overall dental health. Dr. Wendy Willoughby recommends that patients schedule at least two of these every year.

Undergoing just a few dental cleanings a year can help:

  • Remove stains and discoloration
  • Leave you with a brighter, whiter smile
  • Prevent gum disease
  • Prevent oral cancer
  • Resolve bad breath
  • Improve the overall health of your body

The prevention of gum disease and oral cancer are two particularly vital parts of regular dental care. These two ailments are nearly universally treatable if detected early on in their progression. But if undiagnosed for too long, these conditions can have deadly consequences. Gum disease can lead to early tooth loss and extreme discoloration, while oral cancer causes over 9,575 deaths every year in the United States alone. Both of these conditions are extremely easy to treat; any damage caused by them is the result of neglectful dental care.
