Keep your smile healthy with professional dental cleanings
Dental cleanings are essential for maintaining your oral health. During a cleaning, your dental hygienist will remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth, helping prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. Regular cleanings not only keep your smile bright and fresh but also contribute to overall health by reducing the risk of more serious dental problems.
