Tartar and plaque are often the primary culprits that lead to a host of oral health issues. While plaque is a soft and sticky film, tartar is a calcified hard deposit on the teeth. Both of these house bacteria which can cause serious problems when the problem is not addressed. Bacterial build-up can damage the tooth’s natural structure while leading to decay and ultimately tooth loss. Our expert dentists recommend professional teeth cleaning at least once in six months. For those who have had a history of dental disease or oral infections, more frequent sessions may be advised by our dentists. Regular cleaning prevents the occurrence of common oral problems while halting the progression of oral, dental or periodontal disease. Professional teeth cleaning at Bond Street Dental when combined with appropriate oral hygiene practices ensure optimum oral and overall health.
