You can receive a routine checkup and tooth cleaning for only twenty-five dollars.
A teeth cleaning is a prophylactic dental procedure performed to thoroughly clean the teeth. Bi-annual teeth cleanings are vital to prevent the progression of gingivitis and gum disease.
Dental Cleanings are effective in keeping the oral cavity in proper health and halting the progression of gingivitis.

The benefits include:

• Fresher breath. Bad breath or halitosis is generally indicative of advancing periodontal disease. A combination of decaying food particles (possibly under the gum) and potential gangrene stemming from gum infection, results in bad breath. The removal of tartar, plaque, and bacteria can noticeably improve halitosis and reduce infection.
• Plaque removal. Tartar, also referred to as calculus, and plaque, above and below the gum line, can lead to severe periodontitis. Unfortunately, even with a proper home brushing and flossing routine, it can be difficult to remove all debris, bacteria, and deposits from gingival pockets. The experienced eye of a dentist or hygienist using specific dental equipment is needed to remove potentially damaging buildup.
• A healthier-looking smile. Yellow and stained teeth can dramatically decrease the esthetics of a smile. Teeth Cleaning is an effective step in ridding the teeth of these unpleasant stains.
