Teeth play an extremely important role within our lives. Failure to maintain healthy teeth and gums can lead to a deterioration of oral health which in turn, can lead to a variety of dental problems such as gum disease, tooth decay and even loss of teeth. A thorough oral hygiene routine consistently removes bacteria from teeth and gums helping to maintain good oral health. Research indicates poor oral health have been associated with suffering from increased risk of stroke, heart disease, respiratory disease and cardiovascular disease. Achieving healthy teeth and gums is a fundamental component to general wellbeing.

Periodic cleanings of your teeth is essential for optimal function and health. A professional clean includes a series of dental procedures where biofilm (plaque), calculus (tartar) and stains are removed from the teeth. It is essential to have this procedure done regularly (every 6 months) to help prevent the occurrence of dental diseases.

Visit Faithful Dental every 6 month for a Preventive Care appointment. This includes a thorough examination to review, monitor and treat potential dental issues before they well develop, and a professional clean (scaling and/or prophylaxis) to remove the hard build up of plaque and calculus (tartar) that cannot be removed by regular brushing alone.
