Dental Hygiene

Simple Dental provides comprehensive dental hygiene education and services to help you maintain optimal oral health between professional cleanings. During your teeth cleaning and examinations at our office, our dental hygienists will take time to demonstrate proper brushing and flossing techniques tailored to your specific needs.

Professional teeth cleaning in our office is just one part of a complete dental hygiene program. What happens during a dental hygiene consultation? Our team will assess your current home care routine and provide personalized recommendations for improvements. We’ll help you understand how it can enhance your oral health to use the right tools and techniques for your unique dental situation.

Good dental hygiene practices include brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, flossing daily to remove plaque between teeth, and using antimicrobial mouthwash when recommended by your dental professional. It’s also important to replace your toothbrush every 3-4 months when bristles become frayed and less effective, while maintaining a healthy diet low in sugary foods and drinks to minimize acid production that can damage tooth enamel. These fundamental habits work together to create a comprehensive approach to oral health that helps prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental problems.

At Simple Dental, we believe that dental cleaning and examinations are procedures to get a healthy gorgeous smile, but maintaining that smile requires consistent home care. We’re committed to empowering our patients with the knowledge and tools they need to take control of their oral health.

Oral Health

Simple Dental provides exceptional oral health services centered around preventive care and education. Your overall oral health is intricately connected to your general wellbeing, which is why professional teeth cleaning in our office goes beyond just making your teeth look good—it’s about protecting your comprehensive health.

During your teeth cleaning and examinations at Simple Dental, our team conducts a thorough assessment of your oral health status. We examine your teeth, gums, tongue, and oral tissues for any signs of concern. What happens during a complete oral health evaluation? We check for early signs of gum disease, oral cancer, tooth decay, and other conditions that could impact your health.

The connection between oral health and systemic health is well-established by research. Poor oral health has been linked to:

• Heart disease
• Diabetes complications
• Respiratory infections
• Pregnancy complications
• Stroke
• Alzheimer’s disease

This is why dental cleaning and examinations are procedures to get a healthy gorgeous smile and maintain your overall wellbeing. At Simple Dental, we believe that preventive oral healthcare is an investment in your quality of life.

Our comprehensive approach to oral health includes professional plaque and tartar removal to clean areas your toothbrush can’t reach. We check for gum disease and provide treatment when needed, while also screening for oral cancer during your visits. We offer advice about foods that are good for your teeth and help manage problems like dry mouth and other oral conditions. This complete care helps keep your entire mouth healthy, not just your teeth.

Plaque Removal

Simple Dental provides expert plaque removal as a fundamental component of our professional teeth cleaning services. Plaque is a sticky, colorless film of bacteria that constantly forms on your teeth. Without proper removal, this biofilm can lead to tooth decay, gum disease, and other serious oral health problems.

During your teeth cleaning and examinations at Simple Dental, our hygienists use specialized instruments to thoroughly remove plaque from all tooth surfaces. What happens during a professional plaque removal? Our dental professionals carefully clean along the gumline and between teeth—areas where your toothbrush and floss might miss—to ensure comprehensive plaque elimination.

Why is professional plaque removal so important?

• Plaque contains harmful bacteria that produce acids that attack tooth enamel
• These acids can lead to cavities and tooth decay
• Plaque that remains on teeth can harden into tartar within 24-72 hours
• Plaque buildup near the gums can cause gingivitis, the early stage of gum disease
• Only professional dental cleaning can remove plaque from certain hard-to-reach areas

At Simple Dental, we believe that dental cleaning and examinations are procedures to get a healthy gorgeous smile by effectively managing plaque buildup. While daily brushing and flossing help control plaque, professional cleanings are essential for removing plaque from areas you simply cannot reach at home.

Tartar Buildup

Simple Dental provides specialized tartar removal services as part of our comprehensive teeth cleaning treatments. Tartar, also known as calculus, is hardened plaque that has mineralized on your teeth and can only be removed through professional dental intervention.

During your professional teeth cleaning in our office, our skilled hygienists use specialized scaling instruments to safely and effectively remove tartar buildup from your teeth. What happens during a tartar removal procedure? Our dental professionals carefully work around the gumline and between teeth to eliminate all traces of this harmful substance without damaging your tooth enamel or gum tissue.

Tartar buildup is problematic for several important reasons:

• It creates a rough surface that attracts more plaque accumulation
• It harbors harmful bacteria that can cause gum inflammation and disease
• It can lead to receding gums and eventual tooth loss if left untreated
• It often causes bad breath and tooth discoloration
• It can interfere with effective brushing and flossing at home

These dental cleaning and examinations are procedures to get a healthy gorgeous smile by preventing the damage that tartar can cause to your oral health. At Simple Dental, we recommend regular professional cleanings to prevent excessive tartar accumulation and maintain optimal gum health.

Our hygienists not only remove existing tartar but also provide guidance on preventing future buildup through effective home care techniques. Learn about teeth cleaning and how it can enhance your smile by keeping tartar at bay. Schedule your professional cleaning today by calling Simple Dental.

Gum Disease Prevention

Simple Dental provides specialized gum disease prevention services as part of our comprehensive oral health approach. Professional teeth cleaning in our office is essential for preventing gingivitis and periodontitis, the two main forms of gum disease that can lead to serious oral health complications.

During your teeth cleaning and examinations at Simple Dental, our dental professionals carefully assess your gum health for any signs of disease. What happens during a gum disease prevention appointment? We measure the depth of the pockets between your teeth and gums, check for inflammation or bleeding, and remove plaque and tartar that contribute to gum disease.

Gum disease prevention is crucial because gingivitis, the early stage of gum disease, can progress to the more serious periodontitis if not treated. When periodontitis develops, it can lead to tooth loss and deterioration of the jawbone that supports your teeth. Research has shown connections between gum disease and other health problems in the body, including heart disease and diabetes, making oral health important for your overall wellbeing. Taking preventive measures now is much simpler and less expensive than treating advanced gum disease later. Keeping your gums healthy is essential for maintaining a stable, functional smile that allows you to eat, speak, and feel confident throughout your life.

These dental cleaning and examinations are procedures to get a healthy gorgeous smile by maintaining the foundation of your oral health—your gums. At Simple Dental, we take a proactive approach to gum disease prevention through regular professional cleanings and personalized home care recommendations.

Our comprehensive gum disease prevention program includes thorough cleaning by our dental team to remove plaque and tartar that you can’t reach at home. If needed, we’ll perform a deeper cleaning called scaling and root planing to clean under your gumline and smooth out rough spots on your tooth roots. We’ll show you the best ways to brush and floss for your specific teeth and gums, making your daily routine more effective. Sometimes, we might suggest special mouth rinses that help fight bacteria between your dental visits. At each appointment, we’ll carefully check your gums to make sure they’re healthy and catch any problems early when they’re easier to treat.

Fluoride Treatment

Simple Dental provides beneficial fluoride treatments as an important component of our comprehensive teeth cleaning services. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that helps strengthen tooth enamel and prevent tooth decay, making it an essential part of preventive dental care.

During your professional teeth cleaning in our office, our dental team may recommend a fluoride treatment to help protect your teeth. What happens during a fluoride treatment? We apply a concentrated fluoride solution to your teeth in the form of a gel, foam, or varnish. The treatment only takes a few minutes and is completely painless, but the benefits are significant.

Fluoride treatments are valuable because they make your teeth stronger and better able to fight off the acids that cause cavities. They can help repair very small areas of decay before they turn into actual cavities. For people with sensitive teeth, fluoride can reduce pain by protecting exposed roots. The fluoride we use in our office is stronger than what you get in regular toothpaste or mouthwash. We can also apply it directly to the spots on your teeth that need it most, giving you protection exactly where you need it.

These dental cleaning and examinations are procedures to get a healthy gorgeous smile by incorporating preventive measures like fluoride treatments. At Simple Dental, we customize our fluoride recommendations based on your individual risk factors for tooth decay, including your oral hygiene habits, diet, and medical history.

Fluoride treatments are particularly beneficial for children whose adult teeth are still growing in, as it helps make these new teeth stronger. People whose mouths are often dry can benefit because they don’t have enough saliva to protect their teeth naturally. If you tend to get cavities often, fluoride treatments can help break this pattern by strengthening your teeth. For those with exposed roots that can be sensitive and prone to decay, fluoride offers important protection. And if you wear braces or other dental appliances, fluoride helps protect the areas around them that are harder to keep clean.
