Inwood NY Teeth Cleaning
A professional teeth cleaning is designed to remove not only food and debris, but tough to remove plaque and tartar. Left untreated, plaque and tartar contribute to the gum disease known as gingivitis. Gingivitis is the number one contributing factor in the loss of natural teeth and is certainly both preventable and reversible. For those who routinely have professional dental cleanings at least twice per year, also known as prophylaxis, your
Inwood NY teeth cleaning appointment at Elliott Gutman, DMD may simply entail a basic cleaning. Patients who have either delayed the amount of time between professional cleaning appointments or are experiencing symptoms of gingivitis may expect to receive a periodontal scaling or root planning in addition to the removal of surface plaque and tartar.
In addition to the health benefits of maintaining your teeth and gums with professional teeth cleaning services, many patients enjoy a whiter, brighter looking smile following their appointment. Patients who have received restorative dental work including implants or other treatments will still require professional dental cleanings for their surrounding natural teeth and healthy gums. At Elliott Gutman, DMD, we also recommend receiving a thorough dental examination in combination with your
Inwood NY teeth cleaning to safeguard the health of your mouth, assess the integrity of any previous dental work and attend to any changes from tooth decay or the need for a dental filling to more complicated dental diagnosis. Our entire professional staff are also concerned with your comfort while visiting our office and will be sure all aspects of your appointment are administered in an environment with as little stress or worry as possible.
Upon completion of your
Inwood NY teeth cleaning by the well trained professionals at Elliott Gutman, DMD we are sure you will be pleased with the results and may find yourself looking for excuses to smile and show off your brilliant and glossy pearly whites. Before you leave our office we can schedule your next visit before your hectic and demanding schedule fills and you find taking time out for a cleaning to be a hardship. Scheduling your first visit can be done by contacting a friendly and knowledgeable member of our team and we can also address any concerns you may have as a new patient of our practice including additional dental services we offer and accepted insurance plans.
