Here at Accent Dental Center on Forum, we are proud to offer professional prophylaxis (teeth cleanings) performed by Registered Dental Hygienists.
Normal teeth cleanings are for people who have healthy gums. The health of your gums is established during your examination. If it is determined that you have any form of periodontal disease (gum disease), we will recommend and provide the appropriate treatment to achieve healthy gums.
Regular teeth cleanings will remove the calculus, bacterial plaque, debris and any extrinsic stain from your teeth.
Fluoride will be applied for patients that have a moderate to high risk of caries (tooth decay).
Preventative care which includes; professional regular teeth cleanings and exams also give Dr. Burton a chance to complete a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, oral cancer screening and an extraoral examination of your head and neck. Our goal is not to find problems, but instead, take care of an issue before it becomes a big problem.
