What Are the Signs You Need a Deep Dental Cleaning?
When it comes to your oral health, prevention is key. At Southern Smiles of Sylacauga, located at 101 S Douglas Ave, Sylacauga, AL, we understand the importance of maintaining a healthy smile. But, sometimes, regular dental cleanings just aren’t enough. You may need a deep dental cleaning to ensure your gums and teeth remain in top condition. Here are the signs you need to consider this more intensive dental procedure.
Uncovering the Signs You Need a Deep Dental Cleaning
Persistent Bad Breath and Taste
Bad breath, or halitosis, can be embarrassing and often indicates oral health issues. A lasting unpleasant taste in your mouth might also be a signal. These can be early signs of gum disease, which a deep cleaning can address by reaching bacteria trapped beneath your gum line. As one satisfied patient shared, “They are respectful and always very courteous,” which highlights the friendly and professional environment at Southern Smiles.
Gums That Bleed Easily
If flossing or brushing leads to gums that bleed easily, it could suggest gingivitis or early stages of gum disease. A deep dental cleaning might be necessary to remove plaque and tartar that regular cleanings leave behind. Many patients appreciate our attentive staff, with one saying, “Dr. Redmond nor Dr. Price have ever let me hurt before, during, or after any procedure”.
Visual Signs and Oral Health Concerns
Receding Gums
Gum recession is a clear indicator that a deep cleaning may be required. This often occurs with gum disease, which a deep cleaning can help reverse. Our team here believes that “Your smile matters,” and takes measures to protect the health of your gums.
Loose Teeth
If you notice your teeth becoming loose, it’s essential to act before further damage occurs. This could signify advanced gum disease, and a deep dental cleaning may be needed to provide a healthier foundation. Our patients often express their satisfaction with comments such as “I felt really cared for from the time I walked in to the time I walked out”.
