The Importance of Regular Cleanings at Your Dentist


When you’re looking for a Palatine cosmetic dentist or general dentist, Meadows Dental Care is here to provide for your every dental need. As your trusted general dentist, we make it our priority to give you the highest level of dental care when you come in to visit us. By coming in for a regular checkup and teeth cleaning, we’ll be able to benefit you in many different ways, some of which include the following.

We’ll Check for Cavities

One of the most important parts of your checkup with us is having us look for cavities. Cavities usually aren’t visible, so you’ll need to have us examine your teeth once every six months. Detecting a cavity early is critical so we can treat it before you need a more serious dental treatment to fix your tooth decay problem.

We Can Brighten Your Smile

We can remove stains that are causing your teeth to lose their luster. You’ll have a brighter smile which will give you more confidence and maybe even make others think of you in a more positive manner!

We Remove Plaque and Tartar

Plaque and tartar can cause tooth decay and gum disease. Coming in for a regular cleaning will help remove these detrimental buildups. Tartar can’t be removed by normal brushing and flossing methods; you’ll need to come in so that we can remove it with a special tool known as a scaler.

We Can Improve Your Overall Health

Although we usually think of teeth cleanings as a good way to keep up oral hygiene, it’s actually beneficial for your entire body’s health as well. There’s a correlation between gum disease and heart disease along with other associated health risks such as heart attacks or strokes. Maintaining your oral hygiene will help lower your chances of developing these illnesses.

We’ll Help You Keep Your Teeth

Possibly most important of all, coming in to the dentist for frequent visits will help you keep your teeth. Bad oral hygiene can cause advanced stages of gum disease, eventually leading to the possibility of your teeth falling out. By coming in for regular checkups and teeth cleanings, we can make sure that your oral hygiene never gets to that level.
