When you have a local dentist whose expertise and level of care that you can depend on, keeping up with regular dental checkups can be stress-free, as well as highly beneficial.

Dentist in Alta Loma

Your biannual visit to your dentist in Alta Loma consists of two parts; a comprehensive oral examination and a professional dental cleaning. A routine teeth cleaning procedure involves removing any accumulated plaque and calcified tartar deposits from your teeth, including difficult to reach spots in your mouth. While brushing and flossing are an effective and important part of keeping your mouth plaque-free, a professional cleaning allows your dentist to access and remove plaque from where your brush cannot reach. Plaque is a sticky bacterial film that causes dental decay and gingivitis.

As it continuously develops in your mouth, feeding off the sugars in your diet, it is important to maintain effective at-home oral hygiene habits, go for routine dental care, and make the right nutritional choices by avoiding sugary foods. At every routine visit your dentist will closely evaluate your teeth and gums for any oral health conditions. Diagnostic films will be recommended as needed to evaluate for dental decay, periodontal disease and overall oral health. When conditions such as cavities or gingivitis are detected early on, they are easier to treat. Early detection and intervention prevent the problem from getting worse and allow for the most successful treatment outcomes.

At Carnelian Family Dentistry, we take a preventative approach to dental care. When you come see your dentist in Alta Loma  twice a year, you receive the treatment necessary to keep your teeth healthy and your smile beautiful. Give us a call today.
