Professional Teeth Cleanings And Tartar Removal

Is tartar a problem for your smile? It can become one in less time than you might expect. This substance forms when plaque deposits calcify and harden to the point where you cannot remove the buildup through brushing and flossing alone. Fortunately, there is something that can be done about this substance. During your regular teeth cleanings at your dentist’s office, you can have the accumulation of tartar and plaque cleared away. Consistent care both at home and at regular dental visits will lower your risk for problems with your well-being and make it easier to preserve your appearance. Remember that our Baxter, MN dentist’s office is happy to provide support for your well-being whether you need to address an active problem or prevent trouble from occurring in the future.

Do You Have Issues With Tartar Buildup?

You can experience problems with tartar buildup when plaque deposits are not cleared away in time. They form because those deposits harden into a substance that you cannot remove when you brush or floss your teeth. The buildup of plaque can take place over the course of your day, which you (hopefully) fight consistently when you brush and floss. Unfortunately, any buildup that you miss can turn into a greater problem for your smile and oral health after a relatively short period, which is why you should also be consistent with your preventive dental visits.

Be Consistent With Your Routine Reviews And Cleanings

At every routine dental cleaning and exam, our practice will take care to make sure your smile is both fully supported and fully reviewed. A checkup can lead to the discovery of dental decay and gum disease, and it can also lead to the identification of other problems that can potentially threaten your smile. Your hygienist’s cleaning services will remove both plaque and tartar; through this service, your risk for problems with your oral health are reduced.

What To Expect When A Review Leads To The Discovery Of A Cavity

The formation of a cavity can occur before you realize that something is wrong. Unfortunately, this means you can unknowingly let the decay worsen and cause more damage to your enamel. Your routine dental exam can lead to the discovery and treatment of decay. Because our options for treatment include dental fillings and dental crowns that can successfully imitate your enamel.
