General Dentistry in Corona, CA

Many people feel that brushing their teeth twice daily and flossing once may be enough to maintain their oral health. The problem with that assumption is that the bacteria which cause plaque and tooth decay live in every nook and cranny of your mouth, and many of these areas are difficult to access with at-home tools. So, regular teeth cleanings are essential because our hygiene specialists can comprehensively remove plaque and tartar to prevent tooth decay.

Another advantage of regular teeth cleanings is that we can detect other potential dental issues early and often before they require costly interventions. For example, if we identify specific problems with your unique oral health, we can provide preventive dental treatments like fluoride and dental sealants.

How Regular Teeth Cleanings Protect Your Gums

The same bacteria that endanger your teeth' health also may impact your gums and cause periodontal disease. Again, these conditions may be exacerbated by the inaccessibility of certain gum areas, especially between teeth. Dental floss may provide some cleaning in these areas, but our hygienists at Dental Care of Corona can skillfully treat your gums and identify existing damage that may threaten your teeth.

For example, a gum infection may also contribute to an inner tooth infection as bacteria may penetrate your tooth roots via your gums instead of a tooth fracture or cavity. Regular teeth cleanings can help you avoid interventions like root canals in Corona, CA.

It depends on what type of cleaning you need, but at Dental Care of Corona, we offer a new patient special of $195 that includes your regular cleaning and a dental exam, and any necessary x-rays. 

Your teeth cleanings and dental exams should occur every six months, or as recommended by our Corona dentists. Staying current with these appointments is one of the most important things you can do for your family’s oral health.

Seeing you every six months means we can treat small problems like cavities before they develop into serious issues that may be costly or complex to treat. We can also check on existing dental work like crowns, bridges, and veneers to ensure they are in good shape.

Teeth cleanings every six months allow our hygienists to remove the plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth. Without routine dental cleanings to remove these bacteria-filled substances, you can easily develop gingivitis that takes a toll on your oral health.

If we do detect cavities or gum disease, our dentists can take prompt steps to resolve them. Treating gum disease is crucial as studies have proven that it can affect your overall health and well-being.
