Professional Scale and Clean

Professional Scale and Clean

Regular scale & clean is essential to remove stains and calculus build up that develops on your teeth. Teeth cleaning is done as part of a regular dental check up. During your appointment, Dr Singh will check your teeth,  gums,  overall mouth and also evaluate your brushing and flossing by checking in between your teeth while cleaning. After examining and cleaning your teeth, Dr Singh will recommend a personalized advice on how to maintain healthy teeth and gums to avoid long term problems.

Don’t wait to see your dentist until you have dental issues. Most of the problems can be detected and diagnosed, before you start experiencing pain or discomfort. To remove the tartar and build up, your dentist will first use an Ultrasonic Scaler and then handheld instruments. After removing the build-up, the dentist will polish the teeth and make the teeth surfaces clean and smooth. Polishing teeth removes stains and minor imperfections on teeth surface and reduces future plaque build up. Your Dentist will advice you how often you need a scale and clean – 6 monthly or yearly. Professional dental cleaning is an addition to a good daily oral care routine. You should still brush and floss your teeth twice a day, choose healthy foods, avoid sugary acidic drinks and smoking.

Why are my teeth Sensitive?

WHY ARE MY TEETH SENSITIVE?

sensitive teethHave you ever felt a sharp stinging sensation while you are enjoying a scoop of ice cream, sipping cup of tea in the morning or just drinking glass of cold water? This sudden pain or sensation is called tooth sensitivity. At Heritage Dental Group, our experienced dentists try to identify causes of tooth sensitivity and steps you can take to combat sensitive teeth and gain optimum oral health.

WHAT IS TOOTH SENSITIVITY?

If you are experiencing sudden sharp pain, while consuming hot and cold foods, or sometimes just breathing in leaves you with intense pain that means you are suffering from tooth sensitivity or dentin hypersensitivity. Tooth sensitivity is usually caused by dentin on root areas exposed due receded gums. When the root of a tooth becomes exposed it does not have a layer of enamel like the crowns of your teeth. Instead the roots have a very soft covering called cementum, which once lost leaves the dentin of the root exposed.
