Dental Checkups & Cleanings
Even if you brush and floss every single day, your smile still won’t be entirely risk-free; only with a little help can you achieve a radiantly beautiful and problem-free grin! During regular dental checkups, Dr. Shiyab will carefully examine your teeth, gums, and other oral structures and check for signs of concern. Issues like cavities and gum disease aren’t always obvious and can quickly worsen if left under the radar. If necessary, he’ll capture X-rays to be extra thorough. This examination also involves conducting an oral cancer screening. Though serious, this disease is quite treatable if caught early on!
We’ll then give your teeth a very detailed cleaning and remove all the built-up plaque and tartar that’s below the gum line and in other areas of your smile that aren’t easily accessible. Of course, this leaves your smile looking quite luminous!
Gum Disease Treatment
If left untreated, gum disease has the potential to cause all sorts of problems—and not just for your smile, but also for the rest of your body. When treated early on, the bacteria responsible for gum disease can be kept under control with standard dental cleanings. However, more advanced cases usually require more thorough forms of treatment, such as scaling and root planing. This process involves clearing out bacteria deep below the gumline and then smoothing out the tooth roots so that the gums can healthily reattach to them.
