What Happens
WHEN YOU NEGLECT
Professional
Teeth Cleanings
People tend to neglect professional
teeth cleanings for a variety of reasons.
You might have stopped visiting the
dentist during the pandemic.
Or, you may just dread the feeling
of the dental tools scraping your teeth.
Getting back on track with your teeth
cleaning schedule helps you avoid
the following dental problems.
Plaque Starts
to Build Up
and Turn
Into Tartar
Food that gets left on your teeth
breaks down into a sticky substance
called plaque.
Tooth brushing helps remove
a large amount of plaque.
The bristles still can’t reach every
surface of most teeth, though.

your dental cleaning is just
the polishing tool.
This painless part of a cleaning allows
the hygienist to gently buff and polish
the surface of your teeth.
Doing so can help to remove surface
stains and brighten up your smile.
Gum Disease
Starts
Progressing
Bacterial buildup along your gum line
can quickly accumulate between
dental cleanings.
If you go too long without removing it,
then you could be facing a diagnosis
of gum disease.
Regular dental cleanings help to prevent
gum disease from developing.
In some cases, you might even be able
to reverse gum disease by fol
