We want to help you and your family enjoy good oral health. Which is why we urge families to see us for a dental cleaning every six months. Our team can even offer a new technology to ensure your comfort during the process! In today’s blog, Viva Dental Family Dentistry talks about helping smiles with cleaning and the Dental Pain Eraser in Richardson, TX.
The Importance of a Dental Cleaning
We would love to help you start spring with a bright and healthy smile, which is why we want to see the whole family for a dental cleaning. With a routine cleaning, we can gently and thoroughly remove all plaque and tartar from the surfaces of the teeth. We do so with an ultrasonic scaling device, which breaks up and removes these layers with gentle vibrations. We then use a pick to remove any stubborn portions. The last step is to polish the teeth. Which not only helps them shine, but limits the ability for major plaque and tartar buildup to occur before you see us.
The process may seem simple, but it is key for preventing issues like tooth decay, and even gingivitis and gum disease. You also avoid halitosis and the risk of major discoloration. But we also have steps to ensure the process is cozy for you, even if you have major buildup from years of neglect!
The Dental Pain Eraser
Whether you need a cleaning or a restorative procedure like a filling, we can help ensure the administration of anesthesia is comfortable, as well as the procedure itself, with the Dental Pain Eraser. This advanced system uses unique Pulsewave™ technology to send electric signals that essentially calm nerves and prevent pain from occurring in the mouth. This helps ensure you stay comfortable and enjoy a positive experience in the office!
Scaling and Root Planing
If you have signs of gingivitis or gum disease, we could conduct a scaling and root planing, also known as a deep cleaning. We have an on-staff periodontitis ready to help improve your periodontal health, and with this procedure we can remove buildup from the teeth, roots, and from beneath the gums, and destroy pockets of harmful disease-causing bacteria in the process. If you have any questions about helping smiles with the Dental Pain Eraser, or about your next visit, then contact our team today to learn more.
