Dental Cleaning / Periodontal Procedures
The Torrance Dental Association recommends visiting your dentist at least every six months for a routine checkup and cleaning. This helps prevent problems or catch them early, so they’re easier and less expensive to fix.
At Torrance Smile Dental Care we perform a comprehensive periodontal (Gum & Bone) exam, which are the foundation of your teeth, to make sure they are healthy & intact. In addition to losing your teeth due to untreated periodontal disease (gingivitis) it can cause multiple systemic conditions such as Diabetes, Heart Attack, Stroke and pregnancy issues.
We customize cleanings on the basis of your periodontal health. We utilize localized antibiotic (Arestin) along with subgingival irrigation of antimicrobial medicine in problem areas if necessary. Ultrasonic scalars are sometimes used to make the procedure more comfortable and effective as well.
You should contact our office to schedule an appointment for examination and proper Hygiene treatment before it’s too late and your teeth become loose.
