Dental cleaning and prevention Mississauga

Our dentist and dental staff will work with you to design the most effective preventive plan to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures. This is achieved by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions.

 

Your personal home care plays an important role in achieving that goal. We will provide tips on twice-daily brushing, flossing and maintaining a healthy diet.

Good preventative dentistry consists of routine oral exams, cleanings and x-rays. Fluoride and sealants are also excellent preventative treatments that help to safeguard your teeth.

Prevention helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the key to having a beautiful, healthy smile that lasts a lifetime.

Cleanings & Prevention Procedures Mississauga

  • Dental Cleaning
  • Dental X-Rays

Dental Exam

At your first visit, your dentist will thoroughly examine your mouth and identify any potential problems.

An x- ray (radiographs) may be performed to provide a more detailed summary of your oral health. We will check for decay, tumors, cysts, and bone loss. X-rays also help determine tooth and root positions.

During your oral cancer screening, we will visually examine your face, neck and lips. We will also look at your tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.

Gum disease evaluation involves checking the gums and bone around the teeth for any signs of periodontal disease.

In addition, our dentist will check the surface of your teeth for decay (cavities) with special dental instruments.

We will also take this opportunity to perform an exam of existing restorations: check current fillings, crowns, etc.

Regular check-ups paired with proper oral hygiene are the best way to prevent dental problems down the road.

What happens during a teeth cleaning?

A registered dental hygienist generally performs dental exams and professional tooth cleanings (dental prophylaxis) during your initial visit. Services your hygienist will perform during your teeth cleaning include:

Removal of calculus (tartar): calculus is hardened plaque that has been left on the tooth for some time and is now firmly attached to the tooth surface. Calculus forms above and below the gum line and can only be removed with special dental instruments.

Removal of plaque: plaque is a sticky, almost invisible film that forms on the teeth. It is a growing colony of living bacteria, food debris, and saliva. The bacteria produce toxins (poisons) that inflame the gums. This inflammation is the start of periodontal disease!

Teeth polishing: remove stain and plaque that is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing and scaling.

Our dental hygienist will use special dental instruments to remove plaque, tartar, and stains that cannot be removed by brushing and flossing alone.

Digital Dental X-Rays

By staying on the cutting edge of technology, we are proud to offer dental radiographs (x-rays) at our office. This useful diagnostic tool helps us detect damage and dieses not visible during a regular dental exam. Dentists and dental hygienists use this information to complete an accurate treatment plan.

Digital x-rays may show:

  • Abscesses or cysts.
  • Bone loss.
  • Cancerous and non-cancerous tumors.
  • Decay between the teeth.
  • Developmental abnormalities.
  • Poor tooth and root positions.
  • Problems inside a tooth or below the gum line.

Catching and treating dental problems early can save you time, money, lots of pain, and your teeth! In addition, x-ray film images help us catch potential dental problem in their earliest stages.

Are you concerned about x-rays?

We are too! That’s why we want you to know the facts about x-rays. Did you know that we are exposed to natural radiation in our surroundings? The amount of radiation exposure from a full mouth series of x-rays is equal to the amount a person receives in a single day from natural sources.

To enhance patient safety, we use digital x-rays that reduce radiation exposure and has a positive impact on the environment. These protective measures include using lead apron shields to protect the body, when necessary. Our modern fast film lowers the exposure time of each x-ray.

How often should teeth be x-rayed?

Digital x-rays depend on each patient’s specific dental health need. Your dentist professionals will advise x-rays be taken after an in depth look at your medical and dental history, and dental exam. Other factors taken in consideration: signs and symptoms, age and potential risk for disease.

Better for health and safety, full mouth series of digital x-rays should be done for all new patients. A full series is good for three to five years. Once or twice a year, bite-wing x-rays (x-rays of top and bottom teeth biting together) are taken at regular checkups to check for dental issues.
