Dental cleanings are essential for maintaining optimal oral health and function. During these visits, a dental hygienist will clean, polish and floss your teeth to remove hardened plaque, tartar and bacteria. When combined with diligent brushing and flossing at home, dental cleanings help achieve and maintain healthy teeth and gums.
They may also perform other preventive services during the same visit, such as dental sealants and fluoride treatments. At Cochituate Smile Center, we look forward to assisting you in finding a comfortable and permanent solution to your dental issues and putting you on a path toward renewed oral and overall health.
