Here is an explanation of the maintenance procedure
1. First we ask the patient about the condition of their mouth.
2. Next we check each tooth individually for cavities using a magnifying glass. It is particularly easy for cavities to develop in the spaces between teeth, so we also check to make sure you are flossing.
3. We then use a supersonic device to remove plaque from the surface of the teeth. The dental hygienist will use an item called a scaler to neatly remove plaque from deep pockets between the teeth and gums.
4. We then clean discoloration from the teeth and then finish them off with a machine brush.
5. We then massage the gums by going over all teeth with an interdental brush.
6. Finally the dental hygienist provides advice on how to brush properly, and if you wish we also apply fluoride.
For dentures, we perform supersonic cleaning, brush clean any teeth that are discolored, and then check to make sure that nothing is broken. Our Riegel telescope dentures should last a lifetime with proper maintenance.
Also, remember that your own teeth are assets that help you lead a fulfilling life. No matter how high the level of technology, artificial teeth can never compare to natural ones. We are happy to do whatever we can to in order to protect your remaining teeth.
