The Importance of Hygiene Visits

One of the more vital reasons to make a dental appointment is to have your teeth cleaned by a professional hygienist. Plaque and tartar develop on teeth over time. Plaque is gooey, but regular brushing typically removes most of it. But unremoved plaque hardens into tartar, which is beyond the reach of your average toothbrush and floss. Tartar deposits grow below the gumline as well as on the surface of your teeth. If you don't get rid of the plaque, you risk more worrisome issues with your teeth and gums later on. Recent research shows a definite link between untreated gum disease and other life-altering conditions like heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Having your teeth cleaned routinely is one of the easiest things you can do to stay healthy!
