Routine Care
Routine dental cleanings are essential to keeping your smile healthy, preventing cavities, gum disease, and other issues before they become bigger problems. At Lowcountry Family Dentistry, we make your comfort our top priority while providing thorough, gentle cleanings in a welcoming environment. Our team is here to help you maintain a bright, healthy smile—and to ensure you feel cared for every step of the way.
Why It’s Important to Get Your Teeth Cleaned Every 6 Months
-
Prevents Cavities
-
- Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing can’t fully eliminate.
- This helps stop cavities before they start.
-
Protects Against Gum Disease
-
- Plaque and tartar irritate the gums, leading to gingivitis and, if untreated, periodontal disease.
- Regular cleanings keep gums healthy and prevent tooth loss.
-
Detects Problems Early
-
- We will check for signs of decay, fractures, oral cancer, or gum disease.
- Early detection means easier, less expensive treatment.
-
Keeps Your Smile Bright
-
- Professional polishing removes stains from coffee, tea, wine, and smoking, helping your smile stay fresh and white.
-
Freshens Breath
- Built-up bacteria and food debris can cause bad breath. Cleanings leave your mouth feeling fresh.
-
Maintains Overall Health
-
- Oral health is linked to systemic health—gum disease has been associated with heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.
- Regular cleanings support better overall well-being.
✨ In short: A cleaning every 6 months doesn’t just make your teeth look nice—it helps prevent disease, saves money on bigger treatments, and protects both your oral and overall health.
