Examine your mouth
During a dental cleaning, the dentist will examine your mouth for any signs of decay, gum disease, or other dental problems. These problems can be identified early on and treated before they become more serious and require more extensive and costly procedures.
Remove Plaque
One of the main reasons for regular cleaning is to remove plaque/calculus, which is a sticky film of bacteria that can lead to tooth decay and gum disease if left untreated.
Once calculus is formed brushing and flossing can not remove it.
It's important to see your dental professional at least every 6 months.
