Why should I have my teeth cleaned every six months?

This is among the most common hygienist and dentist questions, but the answer is simple: regular cleanings help remove buildup, prevent staining, and preserve your teeth and gums. During this treatment, our hygienists use a combination of techniques to reach areas that flossing and brushing can’t get to.  

It’s been a long time since I’ve visited the dentist. What do I need to do?

If you’re reading this dental FAQ and haven’t been to the dentist in a long time, you should schedule a visit right away. Let the receptionist know that you’ll need a comprehensive checkup as soon as possible and take the next available appointment. During this exam, your dentist may take X-rays and discuss a treatment plan depending on the results.  

Why do I sometimes have bad breath?

Bad breath, or halitosis, is usually the result of poor oral hygiene, health issues, smoking, or having a dry mouth. Regular cleaning, brushing, and flossing should help, but if you’re still experiencing bad breath, then make an appointment with our dental care experts. 

Should I use an electric toothbrush instead of a manual toothbrush?

The answer to this dental question is pretty straightforward: electric toothbrushes tend to be more effective because the brushing and vibration of the machine both help remove plaque and other buildup. Additionally, electric toothbrushes are often gentler on the gums and teeth than the bristles on some manual brushes, so these can help protect your mouth long-term. 

Do I really need to floss?

Flossing is an essential step if you want to prevent cavities, gum diseases, and bad breath. Floss removes plaque and food particles in areas that your toothbrush can’t reach, so it’s an essential part of a good oral hygiene routine. That said, you should avoid damaging your gums while you floss, brush regularly, and also use mouthwash.
