Lingual braces are a specialized type of orthodontic treatment that positions brackets and wires on the backside of the teeth, making them virtually invisible from the front. Unlike traditional braces that are affixed to the front surface of the teeth, lingual braces offer a discreet and aesthetically pleasing option for individuals seeking orthodontic treatment without compromising their smile’s appearance.
While regular dental checkups and cleanings are essential for maintaining good oral health, some individuals may require a more comprehensive cleaning procedure known as deep dental cleaning, also referred to as scaling and root planing. This procedure goes beyond the surface of the teeth to address plaque and tartar buildup that extends below the gum line, which can contribute to gum disease and other dental problems.
A deep dental cleaning is a two-part procedure performed by a dental hygienist or dentist. The first step, scaling, involves removing plaque and tartar from the teeth using specialized instruments. Plaque is a sticky film of bacteria that forms on the teeth, while tartar is hardened plaque that can only be removed by a dental professional.
A radiant and healthy smile is an essential part of overall well-being. Proper oral hygiene practices not only enhance your appearance but also protect your teeth, gums, and overall oral health from various dental issues. By incorporating simple yet effective routines into your daily life, you can maintain a healthy smile and prevent the onset of dental problems.
Remember, oral hygiene is an ongoing process, not a one-time event. By consistently following these simple yet effective practices, you can maintain a healthy smile, prevent dental problems, and boost your overall well-being.
