Professional Cleaning

This is the removal of plaque and tartar (stone build up) above and below the gum line. This is done in order to reduce the levels of bacteria that live in and around the pockets. If left untreated you can expect to have sore, bleeding gums that can slowly lead to bone loss attachment and eventually loose teeth. There are also many studies that link gum disease to heart disease, diabetes, lung disease and low birth weight in pregnant ladies. Keeping your mouth healthy not only helps with oral health but improves overall general health.
