Why Are Teeth Cleanings Important?

Professional cleanings are an essential part of a routine dental exam. During a teeth cleaning, a dentist or dental hygienist removes hard-to-reach plaque and built-up calculus from the teeth. This is accomplished by using ultrasonic and manual tools that gently remove debris from the teeth and gum line. While plaque can usually be removed through brushing and flossing at home, neglecting your oral care routine can lead to plaque hardening into calculus. This substance attacks the tooth enamel, leading to cavities or gum disease. Fortunately, tooth decay and gum disease can often be reversed or improved with proper dental care. Achieve your best smile – call us today to schedule a teeth cleaning in Voorhees.

What Should I Know About Gum Therapy?

Without proper dental cleanings, bacteria in your mouth can lead to problems along the gum line. During the first stage of gum disease, gingivitis, you may notice that your gums are swollen, sensitive, or even bleeding when you brush and floss. If any of these symptoms are detected, it’s important to see a dentist right away for gum disease treatment. When gingivitis is left untreated, it may advance into a condition known as periodontal disease.

To address gum disease, your dentist may employ a method called scaling and root planing, or SRP. This effective periodontal treatment cleans between the gums and teeth, removing bacteria down to the root. Local anesthetic can be used to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. If you suspect gum disease, don’t wait – call us now at (856) 324-3361 to schedule a gum therapy appointment.

How Can I Get Rid of Bad Breath?

Bad breath can occur at almost any time, causing discomfort and embarrassment. Today, more than 25 percent of Americans struggle with this condition. While bad breath can sometimes occur as a result of something you ate, it is sometimes caused by poor oral hygiene or tooth decay. Our office provides several services that can help you eliminate bad breath, including professional dental cleanings, personalized treatments, and at-home oral hygiene products.

Why Should I Receive an Oral Cancer Screening?

Oral cancer is a life-threatening condition that should receive immediate care. However, oral cancer often doesn’t reveal any symptoms during its early stages, making it hard to detect without regular dental checkups. During an oral cancer test, the dentist will use several tools to check your mouth for sores or discoloration. He or she may feel the tissues inside your mouth for lumps or other abnormalities. If the dentist detects a suspicious lump or lesion, it will be biopsied and investigated further. This screening should be painless and will only last for a few minutes. Our office strongly encourages an oral cancer test for all patients over age 18. Take control of your oral health – call us today at (856) 324-3361 to schedule your oral cancer test and dental exam in Voorhees.
