What Our Patients Says
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of preventative dentistry can I get?
Why should I floss? Isn't brushing enough?
Flossing reduces the number of bacteria in your mouth. There are millions of these microscopic organisms feeding on food particles left on your teeth. These bacteria live in plaque and can be removed by flossing. Brushing your teeth gets rid of some of the bacteria in your mouth. Flossing gets rid of the bacteria the toothbrush can’t reach. If you do not floss, plaque remains between your teeth and eventually may harden into calculus/tartar. Plaque can be removed by brushing, but only a dentist or dental hygienist can remove calculus/tartar. Ask your dental professional to show you the proper way to floss. You will both notice the difference at the next cleaning appointment.
How do I take care of my teeth between appointments?
