Your oral health and dental hygiene are such a significant part of your general health and well-being. It is important to maintain stellar dental habits at home, including regular brushing, flossing, and mouthwash use, and avoiding sugary, sticky foods. But beyond your hygienic efforts at home, it is also necessary to schedule regular dental exams and cleanings so that professionals can ensure that your smile is the best it can be. Our East
Elmhurst family dentist practice, Best Care Family Dental, specializes in these routine exams and cleanings, and will provide you with the best results.
East Elmhurst Dental Cleanings
A dental exam will include a visual examination by one of our East Elmhurst family dentists, along with X-rays, charting, periodontal probing, and diagnosis of dental problems we might discover as a result of the exam. If there are any problems noticed, we will discuss treatment options with you. A dental cleaning would consist of thorough removal of plaque and tartar, along with tooth scaling and polishing, in order to prevent common problems such as tooth decay and gum disease. If you are merely cleaning your teeth at home and not coming in to see an
East Elmhurst family dentist, you are doing your teeth, and yourself, a great disservice. The ADA recommends and dental cleaning and exam about twice a year for the average patient. Neglecting the health of your teeth and your mouth can lead to serious consequences toward the health of the rest of your body.

East Elmhurst family dentist practice, your health and convenience are two of our top priorities.
