At Ideal Smiles Dental Care, we offer a full range of general dentistry services to help you maintain exceptional oral hygiene and a beautiful smile you can be proud of. In addition to our expert preventative care such as regular cleanings and check-ups, we also perform more complex dental procedures like fillings, crowns, and root canals.
There are three main components to maintaining good oral health: brushing your teeth, flossing around your teeth and gums, and using a mouthwash. When choosing a toothbrush, we recommend selecting a brush with soft bristles (unless recommended otherwise by your dentist) as to not weaken your enamel with a medium-bristled brush.
Known as dental prophylaxis or a prophy, a regularly scheduled dental cleaning ensures that your teeth are healthy as can be by removing any plaque or tartar buildup. A hygienist begins by conducting a visual exam of your gums and teeth. With the use of a small mirror, the hygienist inspects each of your teeth and then uses a scaling tool to clean the teeth one by one. A dental cleaning is not generally painful but may cause mild discomfort for some patients due to the scraping thats required to complete the procedure.
