Regular checkups and dental cleanings are a part of any good oral hygiene routine, and at Hoye Dental we provide dental care services of the highest quality to ensure that our patients’ smiles stay healthy year after year.
Dental cleanings involve the removal of plaque, which is a soft and sticky film of bacteria, and deposits of tartar that have built up on the teeth over time despite regular brushing and flossing. Because teeth are constantly bathed in saliva, which contains calcium and other substances to strengthen and protect teeth, tartar or calcium deposits can build up over time, and it can only be removed with the help of a dentist. If this tartar is not removed and allowed to accumulate, bacteria will be provided a perfect environment and thrive on the gums and teeth, which can cause cavities, infection and gum disease.
At-home brushing and cleaning are not enough to make sure teeth stay clean. Regular dental cleanings are required. We will clean and polish your teeth, leaving the surface clean and smooth. The smoother the teeth, the more difficult it is for bacteria to stick to them and the more effective at-home brushing will be.
We recommend checkups and dental cleanings every six months for optimum oral health. To schedule an appointment, call 508-823-1600 for our Taunton, MA office and 781-444-4647 for our Needham, MA office. For more information, visit www.HoyeDental.com.
