Keep Your Smile Healthy with Expert Oral Hygiene Care at Gateway Dental
-
Good oral hygiene is essential not only for keeping your teeth and gums healthy but also for your overall well-being. Poor oral hygiene can lead to a variety of dental issues, including cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. It can also contribute to more serious health problems, such as heart disease and diabetes. By practicing proper oral hygiene, you can prevent these issues and enjoy a healthy, confident smile for life.
Our Oral Hygiene Services
-
Professional Cleanings: Regular professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing alone can’t reach. Our hygienists use advanced tools to clean your teeth thoroughly, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
-
Comprehensive Exams: During your visit, our dentists will perform a comprehensive oral exam to check for any signs of decay, gum disease, or other dental issues. Early detection allows us to treat problems before they become more serious.
-
Fluoride Treatments: Fluoride treatments help strengthen your tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay. We recommend fluoride treatments for both children and adults as part of a preventive care routine.
-
Sealants: Dental sealants are a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, where cavities are most likely to develop. Sealants provide an extra layer of defense against decay, especially for children.
-
Oral Hygiene Education: Our team will provide personalized advice on the best oral hygiene practices for your needs. We’ll teach you proper brushing and flossing techniques and recommend products that can help you maintain a healthy smile at home.
Tips for Maintaining Oral Hygiene at Home
-
Brush Twice a Day: Use a fluoride toothpaste and brush for at least two minutes each time, ensuring you reach all surfaces of your teeth.
-
Floss Daily: Flossing removes food particles and plaque from between your teeth and along the gumline, where your toothbrush can’t reach.
-
Use Mouthwash: An antimicrobial mouthwash can help reduce bacteria and freshen your breath.
-
Eat a Balanced Diet: Limit sugary and acidic foods that can contribute to tooth decay, and eat a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and dairy products to support your oral health.
-
Visit Gateway Dental Regularly: Regular dental check-ups and cleanings are essential for maintaining your oral health. We recommend visiting us every six months.
