Defending Against Tartar Buildup
There are several reasons to worry about tartar buildup, but one to keep in mind is that when this substance forms, it will remain in place until your next professional teeth cleaning. This means you have a higher risk for problems with dental decay and gum disease, and it also means you can have unsightly deposits that people notice. Our Temecula, CA dentist’s office can help with the removal of this material during your regular dental exams. We can also clear away plaque deposits so that they will not harden and become more difficult for you to tend to. These visits provide more than just this service, as they are also beneficial for alerting you to active problems that are already serious enough to require restorative dental work. (more…)

Keeping Up With Teeth Cleanings
Every time you brush and floss your teeth, you fight the buildup of food particles and oral bacteria. The accumulated plaque on your teeth can also be removed through these activities.

Because your hygienist can remove harmful debris from areas that are hard for you to see or reach, you can find that you needed more help in the form of tartar removal than you realized. Our Riverside, CA dentist’s office provides thorough cleanings as part of your regular dental appointments, which help you stay safe from future problems as well as complications from existing issues.

Will Unhealthy Gums Hurt My Smile?
If you think a tooth looks out of place in your smile, you can have understandable concerns about how much attention it receives from others when you smile and speak.

Help For Nightly Teeth Grinding
Do you really need to say something to your dentist about your teeth grinding issues?
