Teeth Cleaning with Braces from New Town Dental Mullica Hill Braces can make it difficult to clean all the surfaces of the teeth. Tartar can cause serious problems, including gum disease, tooth decay, and bad breath, and can interfere with the correct positioning of your teeth when you have braces. Although you should brush and floss regularly, your teeth are more at risk of plaque and tartar buildup with braces. You should schedule regular dental cleanings every three to six months to avoid plaque buildup. Our experienced dental professionals use the latest techniques and equipment to clean your teeth and remove any plaque or bacteria that may have built up over time, even around brackets and wires. It's crucial to see a professional for dental cleaning if you're wearing braces. Specialty dental cleanings remove plaque and bacteria that can build up around braces and cause tooth decay and other problems. Dental cleanings can also detect early signs of oral cancer. Dental checkups help keep your teeth healthy and look great while wearing braces. Professional cleaning by a dentist or hygienist removes plaque built up in hard-to-reach or obscured areas of the mouth, preventing cavities and other problems.
